Please ask your municipal administration for the disposal point.

REQUIREMENTS ON THE INSTALLATION LOCATION

For safe and faultless operation of the unit, the following requirements of the installation location have to be met:

• The unit has to be placed on a solid, flat, horizontal, and non-slipping surface with a sufficient weight-carrying capacity.
• Make sure that the unit cannot topple over.
• Choose the location in such a way that children cannot reach the connecting cable of the unit.
• Do not place the unit on hot surfaces, such as hotplates, or near them.
• Never use the unit outdoor and store in a dry location.
• The unit is not designed for installation in a wall or a built-in cupboard.
• Do not set up the unit in a hot, wet or moist environment.
• The socket has to be easily accessible so that the connecting cable can be removed easily in case of emergency.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

For safe and fault-free operation of the unit, the following requirements have to be met during the electrical connection:

• Before connecting the unit, compare the connecting data (voltage and frequency) on the type plate with those of your energy network. These details must correspond so that no damage occurs to the unit. In case of uncertainty, contact a qualified electrician.
• The socket has to be protected at least by a 10 amps circuit breaker.
• Make sure that the connecting cable is not damaged and not laid across hot surfaces or sharp edges.
• The connecting cable must not be stretched tightly.
• The electric safety of the unit is ensured only when it is connected to a socket with protective conductor installed correctly. Operation on a socket without protective conductor is forbidden. If in doubt, let the house installation be checked by a skilled electrician. The manufacturer does not assume responsibility for damage which has been caused by missing or interrupted protective conductor.

IMPORTANT!

The grinding angle is 20^
- If the knife is not very blunt, in most cases it is sufficient to reshapepen it just a little in level 2.

Always alternate between the right and left slot in level 1. This double-slot level quickly ensures a sharp cutting edge, which is then polished in the manual second level. This uses only a single slot that removes both sides of the blade simultaneously.

• Clean the knife to be sharpened before use.
• Position the unit in such a way that the numbers for sharpening levels 1 and 2 are facing you.
• Insert the plug into the socket and switch the unit on.
• Pull the smooth knife first through the left slot of level 1 and then through the right slot of level 1.

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure that the knife blade is in contact with the diamond discs. All you need to do is apply slight downward pressure while pulling the blade towards you.
• Additional pressure is not necessary and does not accelerate the sharpening process.
• Prevent cuts into the plastic housing. Accidental cuts into the housing will not impair the operation of the unit or damage the cutting edge.

• In individual cases, slight scratches on the knife cannot be avoided.

• Depending on the bluntness of the blade, pull the blade approx. 5 - 10 times per side through the right and left slots of level 1.

IMPORTANT!

In the case of a 20 cm long knife, each passage should take approx. 6 seconds. Pull shorter knives through in 3 - 4 seconds.

• Before proceeding with phase 2, make sure that a burr has been created along the cutting edge.

IMPORTANT!

• You can feel the burr by moving your fingers from the back of the knife over the side surface of the knife towards the cutting edge and then carefully stroking over the cutting surface. You can do this on both sides of the knife; a burr should have formed on one side.
• If your last sharpening passage took place in the right-hand slot, there should be a small burr on the right-hand side of the knife edge. If the last pull was in the left slot, you should be able to feel a burr on the left side.
• If there is no burr, pull the knife 2 - 3 times alternately through the right and left slots of level 1.
• Then switch the unit off; no more power is required for the manual polishing stage.
• Now pull the knife back and forth approx. 4 - 5 times at level 2.

CAUTION

Keep your fingers away from the blade. Sharpening makes the blade very sharp. There is danger of injury.

IMPORTANT!

For best results in level 2, centre the blade within the slotwidth and keep the length of the blade aligned with the centreline of the slot while moving the knife back and forth in the slot without lifting it up. Only apply light downward pressure to the blade when sharpening in level 2.

RESHARPENING THE KNIFE EDGE

To reshapepen, follow the procedure described above for level 2 by making two to three (2-3) complete forward and backward movements while maintaining the recommended downward pressure. Ensure that the grinding discs are rotating in the process.

Test the sharpness of the cutting edge. Repeat the process if necessary.

In general, it should be sufficient to sharpen several times with level 2 only before sharpening the knife in level 1.

SHARPENING SERRATED BLADES

Serrated blades can only be sharpened in level 2.

• Centre the blade in the slot for level 2.

• Now pull the knife back and forth approx. 5 times.
  Test the sharpness of the blade.

• If the blade is very blunt, switch the unit on and first carry out two quick but complete pairs of strokes in level 1 - alternating between the right and left slots.

IMPORTANT!

Attention: Only carry out a few pulls in level 1, otherwise you will remove too much metal from the teeth of the serrated blade.

• Then pull the knife back and forth approx. 5 times at level 2.

IMPORTANT!

Due to its saw-like structure, a serrated knife will never be as sharp as a knife with a smooth blade.

CLEANING

• The outside surface of the knife sharpener can be cleaned with a damp, soft cloth.
• Regularly remove the metal dust by turning the knife sharpener upside down and gently tapping it out over a newspaper, paper towel or other paper.
• This knife sharpener does not require any oils or other lubricants.

TWO-YEAR WARRANTY

For this product, we assume 24 months manufacturer warranty for defects, which are due to production or material defects. Your legal warranty claim in conformity with Section 437 et seq. of the German Civil Code (BGB) shall remain unaffected by this regulation. The warranty does not cover damage caused by improper handling or use as well as defects which only slightly influence the function or the value of the appliance. In this case, the warranty will also become null and void. Transport damages, as far as we are not responsible for it, are excluded from the warranty claims. A warranty claim is excluded for damage caused by a repair which has not been carried out by us or one of our agents. In case of justified complaints, we shall repair the defective product or replace it by a product without defects at our discretion.
