Abstract
A food slicing machine which folds up into a compact storage position includes a motor driven blade mounted on an upright housing. A platform pivotally mounted to the housing supports a sliding food tray which in turn receives a food pusher used to maintain the food against a guide surface during the slicing stroke. A thumb guard pivotally connected with the food tray must be positioned properly to permit operation of the machine. The components are removable for cleaning and are contained together when the unit is folded up for storage.
