  Choose the desired sharpness setting by adjusting the dial to either “blunt” or “sharp.” This allows you to customize the point of the pencil according to your needs.

• Insert Pencil:

  • Place the pencil into the sharpening slot. Apply gentle pressure to the pencil; the sharpener will begin to operate automatically once the pencil is properly positioned.

• Auto-Stop Function:
  The sharpener will automatically stop once the pencil is sufficiently sharpened. This feature helps prevent over-sharpening and ensures consistent results.

Solution for Jammed Blade

Identify the Jam:
If you experience a jam, it is likely due to a broken pencil lead obstructing the blade.

Clear the Jam:

• Insert a HARD pencil (e.g., a 2B pencil) into the sharpening slot.
• Apply approximately 2KG of pressure to the pencil to forcefully push the jammed lead out of the blade.
• This action should help dislodge the obstruction and restore normal operation.

• Surface Wipe: Clean the exterior with a dry cloth; avoid using liquids.
• Blade Maintenance: Ensure blades are not dull; replace if sharpening becomes ineffective.
