Risk of injury and tool damage!
Do not use hard-steel hammers and/or with sharp edges and corners.

• Choose an suitable chisel. The narrower the chisel, the less force is required.
• Depending of the material of the workpiece, you may have to change the angle of the cutting edge (see “Sharpening”).
• Remove material from the workpiece by advancing the cutting edge (C) into it.
• It is recommended to prepare a little grove before the actual work. This way the cutting edge cannot slip away when using more force.
• After the work is finished, always put the tip cover on the cutting edge (C).

Cleaning and Maintenance

6.1 De-rusting and rust protection

• Use commercially available rust cleaner or citrus cleaner. Wear gloves and follow manufacture’s cleaning instructions.
• Spray the metal components. Let them stand for several minutes then, using steel wool, brass brush or toothbrush, scrub off as much of the rust as you can.
• To prevent the metal parts from rusting, keep them lubricated with a commercially available lubrication solution.

Some lubrication solutions may interact with the wood what may affect the look of the wood. Ask your dealer for an accurate lubrication solution.

6.2 Sharpening

• If the cutting edge (C) is blunt, primely sharpen it on the

  120 grain (darker gray) side of the sharpening stone (H). Do the precision

  sharpening on the #240 grain (brighter gray).

• Lubricate the sharpening stone with oil.

• Use the honing guide to ensure an accurate sharpening angle of the cutting edge (C).

1. Turn the width adjustment screw (E) of the honing guide in anti-clockwise direction to widen the intake (D, G).
2. Place the chisel with the bevel (B) facing down in the chisel intake (G). Turn the width adjustment screw (E) in clockwise direction to lock the chisel in place. Depending on how much the chisel protrudes from the chisel intake (G), the cutting edge angle of the chisel will be adjusted accordingly.

3. Pull the chisel in the honing guide backwards to sharpen the cutting edge (C). Press the castor and the cutting edge onto the sharpening stone (H). Repeat until sharpened.
4. Draw the sharpened cutting edge (C) across the corner of a scrap piece of wood to remove burr.

• The plane blade is not provided.

Dry the blade and protect against rust. A freshly honed surface, if wet or moist, can show the first signs of rust within a matter of minutes. Dry the surface immediately with a clean, absorbent cleaning rag. Then apply a thin layer of oil as rust protection.

6.3 Storage

• Always store chisels with the tip cover in place.
• Store in a cool and dry place away from children and pets in the provided case.
