Operation

Note: The VOGUE Knife Sharpener automatically adjusts to accommodate varying thickness of blade.

Sharpening Tips

• Apply light pressure to the blade when sharpening for best results.
• Pull the blade in a single, smooth motion.
• To sharpen the tip of the blade, pull the handle up at the end of the pulling motion.
• Always alternate between the left and right slots of any sharpening stage.

Note: Ensure that knife blades are clean and dry before sharpening.

Sharpening Stage 1

Use for blades with a very blunt edge.

1. Connect the sharpener to the mains power supply.
2. Turn the power switch to ‘I’.
3. Hold the handle of the knife firmly and place the blade hilt in the left sharpening slot of Stage 1.
4. Apply enough pressure for the knife to make contact with the sharpening wheel.
5.  Pull the blade back to the tip in a smooth motion. Do not twist or rock the blade.
6.  Repeat this process for the right sharpening slot of Stage 1.

Note: As a guide, each pull for a 6 inch blade should take 2-3 seconds. An 8 inch blade should take 4 seconds and longer blades 6+ seconds.

Sharpening Stage 2

Use for honing a blade or to achieve a razor sharp edge after stage 1.

• Repeat steps 3-6 as above, using Sharpening Stage 2.

Note: 1-2 pulls on each side of stage 2 is normally sufficient, though more pulls will achieve a finer edge.

Cleaning, Care & Maintenance

• Always turn off and disconnect the appliance from the power supply before cleaning.
• Use soapy water and a damp cloth to clean the exterior of the appliance.
• Remove the sharpening head by turning clockwise. The covers of the sharpening wheels (1 & 2) can be removed by pushing the cover in at one end and lifting. Filings can then be emptied. Afterwards, assemble the appliance in the reverse order.
