3.
The knife cutting area should be clean and free from food, especially grease.
Grease will ruin the ability of a grinding stone to sharpen an edge. The stone simply
will not cut. If cleaning is necessary, follow the procedure outlined on Page 5.
4.
Loosen sharpener knob assembly (Figure 5 [28]) which bears against sharpener
post, then lift sharpener assembly (Figure 1 [2]) and rotate it 1/2 turn (180°). Then
force it down over the knife.
5.
Tighten sharpener knob assembly (Figure 5 [28]). As the knob assembly is
tightened, it bears on the sharpener post and automatically aligns the grinding and
deburring stones to the precise orientations which are preset at our factory.
6.
Turn slicer ON. Depress the sharpener button on the back side of blade and hold
in, which will start the grinding wheel rotating. Run until the beveled cutting surface
cleans up. This can take from 30 seconds to several minutes depending on how
dull the blade was allowed to become. Release sharpener button.
7.
Turn slicer OFF and check for the formation of a very slight burr on the side of knife
opposite the bevel which indicates complete grinding of the bevel. This slight burr
can be detected either visually or by picking with a small piece of stiff paper.
8.
Turn slicer ON. Lightly press deburring (honing) button on the front side of blade
and hold for 1 to 2 seconds while you turn OFF the slicer. Blade should now be
completely sharpened and honed.
Caution:
It is important for best slicing results not to deburr the knife too long or
the keen edge will be destroyed due to the formation of an undesirable
second bevel on the opposite side. This condition tends to be the
primary cause of unsatisfactory slicing results.
9.
Turn slicer OFF. Loosen knob assembly, (Figure 5 [28]) then lift and return
sharpener to its storage position. Tighten knob assembly.
10, Clean slicer and knife according to the cleaning procedure on Page 5 in order to
thoroughly remove grinding debris.
