If the sharpener is not mounted proceed as follows:
1. Place the sharpener in its support
2. Tighten the safety screw
3. Block the knob
Should the Blade become blunt it will be necessary to sharpen it. This slicer
comes equipped with built in sharpener.
Note: The Blade is highly resistant to ware. With normal use it should only need
sharpening about once a year.
To sharpen the Blade:
1. Unplug the slicer from the electrical outlet.
2. Put the Graduated Knob (I see page 2) in the “0” position.
3. Carefully clean the blade. (See Cleaning and Maintenance.)
4. Reinsert plug into electrical outlet.
5. Loosen the Locking Knob (K) on the sharpener (E).
6. Raise the sharpener, turning in 180º so that both grinding wheels are in
working position. (See Fig. 2)
7. Lower the sharpener and secure by turning the Locking Knob (K).
8. Set Graduated Knob (I) to 2.
9. Press the On/Off Switch and press buttons (L and M) simultaneously.
10. Let the blade turn for about 1-2 minutes. When the blade has stopped, check
to see if any burrs have formed on the edge.
11. If a burr is present, switch on and gently press the buttons (L and M) to
remove the burr.
12. After sharpening, return the sharpener back to its original position. Clean the
edge of the blade and grinding wheels with alcohol.
13. After several sharpening operations, the grinding wheels should be cleaned
with a brush to remove any traces of alcohol.
Note: After many times sharpening, it may become necessary at some point
to replace the blade. Replace the blade when it becomes 10mm or thinner.
