A slicing machine has a base which supports an inclined rotary knife driven by a motor and covered by a removable knife guard. A carriage is supported for reciprocation adjacent the knife and an adjustable gage plate, and includes a removable inclined tray member for supporting the articles to be sliced. A first interlock system prevents removal of the tray member until the gage plate is set at zero or flush with the knife, and a second interlock system prevents operation of the motor when the knife guard is removed for cleaning. A third interlock system assures that the motor will not operate when the knife guard is being reassembled in the event the main motor control switch was inadvertently actuated when the knife guard was removed.
