Abstract

The invention relates to a guard which covers the periphery of the blade during use and is axially displaceable a limited distance to allow access to the rear of the blade to facilitate cleaning. The guard is mounted on the slicing machine in a fashion which prevents its removal except under condition in which the blade itself is first removed.
