SEAS 20 B1
Placement
■ Place the appliance on a stable and slip-free surface.
■ Then insert the plug into the power socket.
Adjustment
■ To select the required sharpening function , turn the
function and protective cap until the cap perceptibly engages.
■ In position “Knife with serrated edge“, the corresponding
symbol points to the grinder opening (See Fig. C) – however, the
cap engages at the point at the end of the symbol.
■ Hold the switch pressed down. The grindstone revolves
continuously until the switch is released.
Sharpening
■ First present the blade when the grindstone is revolving.
■ Always draw the knife or scissors back, from the blade stop, in an
even movement, not in a repetitive back and forth movement –
otherwise the result will be an uneven sharpening.
■ Do not apply any great pressure and always sharpen only clean
blades, so as to avoid a premature wearing-out of the grindstone.
■ Always sharpen knives and scissors so that the blade is at an
acute angle to the grindstone (as alluded to in the shape of the
opening). Sharpening at the false angle can destroy any blade.
■ After sharpening, remove any possible grinding remnants that
may be on the blade with a moist cloth.
