The Omcan 16625 Cheese Cutters
A heavy duty manual wire cheese cutter board from Omcan's cheese cutter range. The floating wire design allows for a smooth action with all types of cheese, and it offers dependability and ease of cleaning. The board is 20 in by 18 in and 4 in high, weighs 8.5 lb, and has an approximate cheese capacity of 11 in in diameter. It is a white board standing on four feet with the wire post at the back. Omcan also makes the same heavy duty cutter in a 24 in by 24 in size (item 24573).
Floating Wire Design
The cutting wire is worked by a handle. To cut, lift and hold the wire upright by the handle, set the block on the cutting surface with the part to be cut over the groove, gently pull the handle so tension is added to the wire, then, keeping that tension, slowly but firmly lower the handle and press the wire through the cheese. The wire runs through a pulley system and hooks to a screw inside the handle at one end and to the bottom of the unit at the other.
Board Size and Cheese Capacity
The board measures 20 in by 18 in by 4 in (510 x 457 x 100 mm) and weighs 8.5 lb (3.9 kg). Its approximate cheese capacity is 11 in in diameter; the 24 in by 24 in version is 12 in. Place the unit on a sturdy work surface before cutting.
Dependability and Ease of Cleaning
The cutter offers dependability and ease of cleaning. The cleaning routine is to remove the cutting wire after use, thoroughly clean the block and the wire with a mild detergent and warm water, then dry all components completely and reassemble the unit.
Replacement Wires, Handles, Springs and Feet
Cheese cutter accessories are available: cutter wires in 24 in (item 10060) and 36 in (item 10061) lengths, twelve to a pack, handles two to a pack (item 10059), springs in pairs (item 14791), and a foot for the 16625 and 24573 cutters (item 15073). To change the wire, twist the two halves of the handle in opposite directions to separate them and unhook the wire, unscrew the other end from the bottom of the unit, then hook and screw in the new wire, guide it through the groove of the pulley wheel and the gap in the cutting surface, hook it to the screw inside the handle and twist the handle halves back together.
