Blade Sharpening
1. This operation should be undertaken if the cutting blade becomes dull. It should be noted that the blade is made
from hardened material and under normal use should only need sharpening once a year.
2. Unplug the unit.
3. Ensure that the slice thickness knob is in the ‘0’ position.
4. CAREFULLY clean the part of the blade to be sharpened.
5. Unlock the sharpening device using the safety locking screw. Lift up the sharpening assembly and rotate it 180° so
that both grinding wheels are in the correct position. Lower the sharpening device and lock in position.
6. Plug in the machine and switch on.
7. Using the button at the rear of the sharpening unit, push the stone against the rotating blade for approximately
30 seconds.
8. After sharpening, it is important to remove the grinding wheel from the blade by letting go of the push button on the
front of the sharpening device. Run the slicer for 2-3 seconds after letting go of this button.
9. Return the sharpening device to its original position by unlocking the safety screw and rotating by 180°.
