Install the abrasive belt
Abrasive belt & grinding wheel
Rough, Medium, and Fine abrasive belts are available in pairs. They are made from aluminium-
oxide. This knife sharpener is originally equipped with fine grinding wheel (Fine abrasive belt
mounted on wheel).
Rough belts
are blue internally. This grade of belt is for profiling damaged and badly chipped
knives. Because these belts remove a lot of metal, they should be used with caution. This belt is
durable but the edges of the knives being sharpened are not smooth.
Medium belts are white internally. This grade of belt is also for profiling knife edges.
Fine belts are pink internally. This grit belt is designed as a finishing or honing belt. The edges of
the knives being sharpened are smooth.
NOTE: when the foam cushion on the grinding wheels has lost its flexibility, it is
necessary to replace with new grinding wheels.
