KNIFE SHARPENING
For fast and professional results with minimum edge loss, return your knives to the factory
for resharpening. Have your knives resharpened when you first notice some dullness. This
gives optimal performance and maximum life span out of the knives.
Molding knives should be surface ground on the face in pairs to preserve the profile and
maintain the height of the knife. This is how they are intended to be ground. The profile
should never be ground.
Planing knives may be ground on the surface or on the bevel.
Both molding and planing knives have an edge angle of 57 degrees measured off the back
of the knife.
Face of knife----
Hook angle is 11 degrees
The use of dull knives will put a strain on the feed mechanism and will result in your need
