Water reservoir
The wet sharpening stone absorbs water during use. This
helps to prevent heat build-up that can dull hardened steel
edges. Check the water level periodically, and refill the
reservoir with regular tap water as needed.
Filling the water reservoir
(Fig. 9)
1. Using a measuring cup, slowly and carefully pour
approximately 3 oz (90 ml) of water into the reservoir
(1).
The water level should be below the drain lip
(2).
2. Turn the sharpener on for approximately 30 seconds in
order to allow the sharpening wheel to absorb water
from reservoir.
Draining the water reservoir
(Fig. 10)
1. Turn the sharpener off, and unplug the power cord.
2. Lift the sharpener up and tip it in order to pour water
out of the reservoir through the water drain lip
(1).
ON/OFF switch
