Putting into operation
Connect the appliance to a socket.
By turning the sharpening head adjust the desired
working position. The sharpening head locks into place
perceptibly, when the marking of a symbol is turned
towards the top.
For starting the appliance press the button. The starting
noise of the motor is due to technical reasons and no
reason for concern.
Sharpening procedures
Only sharpen clean objects. Move all knives and scissors
under slight pressure in one fluent movement towards
your body during the sharpening operation. Never move
in both directions. Repeat this procedure until the desired
degree of sharpness has been obtained. The quality of
the sharpening procedure is primarily dependent on the
quality of the steel. Always sharpen knives and scissors
about the whole length in order to avoid deformations.
Strong pressure and tilting the tools block the grinding
disc. In this case start the sharpening operation once
again.
