PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Application range
This device is ideal for home and small workshops. It is easy to use and includes a special
aluminum oxide stone that offers professional results every time. Use the machine only
according to this manual.
PRIOR TO USE
The device is completely assembled and thus ready to use immediately. Unpack the appliance
and check that all parts are included. If any part is missing or damaged, contact your dealer
immediately. Dispose all packing material according to local regulations.
Preparations
Install the device in an upright and stable manner on a firm and even surface with sufficient
illumination. The device has no front or rear side. You can alternatively grind with or against the
direction of rotation.
OPERATION
Direction of grinding
The grinding direction mainly depends on your requirements whether you want to work with or
against the direction of grinding. If you want to quickly remove large quantities of steel (e.g.
from very old, rusty tools) or if you want to grind coarse tools, such as axes, it is recommended
to work against the direction of rotation.
If you want to grind more precisely, we recommend to work with the direction of rotation. This
applies, for example, to carving tools and knives. The grinding process is slowed down if you
work with the direction of rotation.
Check before each operation whether the surface of the grinding stone is even.
Water reservoir
Fill the water reservoir with water up to the marking. The grinding stone becomes saturated
with water. Refill water, if required. Do not grind without water.
Once the grinding process is completed, lower the water reservoir to prevent the grinding stone
from being in the water. Empty the water reservoir regularly. Otherwise, particles of steel and
trimmed stone will accumulate and compress in the reservoir.
Expert tip:
Such precipitations can be avoided if you place a magnet into the water.
