Dito Sama P4U-CS3 Commercial Vegetable Slicer 500W
Dito Sama Prep4You P4U-CS3: a compact commercial vegetable slicer that cuts manual prep time by up to 95%
The Dito Sama Prep4You P4U-CS3 is a continuous-feed commercial vegetable slicer that slices, grates, shreds (julienne), dices and cuts chips from a single 500 W induction motor. Made in France and supplied with three stainless steel discs (2 mm slicer, 5 mm slicer and 3 mm grater), it is ready for salad, sandwich, coleslaw and garnish prep straight out of the box. Dito Sama rates the Prep4You slicer for up to 100 servings per service, which makes it the right size for cafés, kebab and takeaway shops, school canteens, childcare centres and aged-care kitchens that prepare fresh vegetables every day but do not have the bench space for a full-size vegetable prep machine.
Single-speed operation at 1,500 rpm with a pulse button keeps it simple for casual staff: load the hopper, lower the lever and the Prep4You delivers uniform cuts every time. If you work with a lot of soft produce or want to dice tomatoes and onions, consider the variable-speed P4U-CV3.
Who the Prep4You vegetable slicer is built for
- Cafés, sandwich bars and kebab shops – sliced tomato, onion, lettuce and cucumber in minutes; crinkle-cut and chip discs for sides.
- Aged care, hospitals and childcare kitchens – consistent, portion-friendly cuts for cook-chill and texture-modified menus, with every food-contact part removable for cleaning.
- School canteens and clubs – grated carrot and cheese, coleslaw and salad mixes for 100+ covers without extra labour.
- Supermarket delis and caterers – pre-packed salads, grated cheese and diced fruit with the same cut every batch.
- Restaurants and pubs – mirepoix, julienne, house-made chips and garnishes prepared by one person instead of three.
Key features
- Three discs included (2 mm slicer, 5 mm slicer, 3 mm grater) – most competing machines are sold without discs.
- Patented lever-pusher maximises the load and keeps pressure even for uniform cuts, including difficult produce such as tomatoes and onions.
- Three feed openings: a 1.25 L half-moon hopper for bulk loading plus Ø 55 mm and Ø 25 mm chutes for long or small items (carrots, cucumbers, celery).
- Large output chute ejects straight into GN pans and containers up to 200 mm high – no second transfer.
- 1,500 rpm single speed with pulse for quick, precise slicing and grating.
- Operator safety – the blade stops as soon as the lever is lifted; ergonomic front lever suits left- and right-handed users.
- Fast cleaning – all parts in contact with food remove without tools and are 100% dishwasher safe; IPX5 waterproof flat touch panel wipes clean.
- Quiet 500 W asynchronous induction motor with no brushes or belts and a stainless steel shaft for long service life.
- Compact 348 mm footprint that fits on a standard bench and moves easily between stations.
- BPA-free food-contact materials; built in France to European food-safety and machinery directives.
