Preparation and operation

Location
Place the grinder and press it on a flat and firm surface so that the grinder is firmly in place.  Sharpening

Sharpening

Part 1:
Part 1 is intended for the first grinding, respectively rough sharpening the blunt knife to create the correct blade shape. Insert the knife completely towards the device with the handle and pull it evenly towards you at least 3 times. When grinding the tip of the knife, gently raise the handle so that the curvature of the tip is evenly sharpened.

Part 2:
Part 2 is intended for fine sharpening of the knife blade to create a perfectly sharp blade. Insert the knife completely with the handle towards the device and pull it evenly towards you at least 3 times. When grinding the tip of the knife, gently raise the handle so that the curvature of the tip is evenly sharpened.

Note:

• After sharpening the knife, remove any sharpening residue that may
  remain on the blade with a damp cloth.

• Always pull the knife evenly outwards, not back or forth and back again – the result of sharpening would be uneven. Never insert the tip of a knife into the groove and do not push it towards the bottom!

• Do not apply strong pressure and always grind only clean blades to avoid premature wear of the grinding wheel.

• Always sharpen the knives so that the blade is at an acute angle to the grinding wheel (as determined by the shape of the groove). Grinding at the wrong angle can destroy any blade.

• Always test the blade of the knife by cutting a slice of food. If you find it blunt, repeat the sharpening procedure until the blade is sharp.

Cleaning and maintenance

• Use only a slightly damp cloth to clean the device itself.
• Do not use any solvents or harsh cleaners.
• Do not wash the device in the dishwasher.

Warning!
Never immerse the device in water or any other liquid!
