Intended Uses:

• Grinding, Sharpening and Honing applications on knives and tools
• Light duty grinding in metal

Unintended Uses:

Troubleshooting:

a) Problem: The tips of my knives are becoming rounded.
Solution 1: Stopping with the tip still supported by the belt while
powering down the tool will reduce tip rounding.
Solution 2: Keep the blade edge perpendicular to the belt to
reduce tip rounding.
b) Problem: The belt is cutting into the guide or sharpening cassette.
Solution 1: With the sharpening guide removed, use the red
tracking knob to re-adjust the belt position to the center of the
pulley.
c) Problem: How do I feel for a burr at the cutting edge to know
when to proceed from P220 to 6000?
Solution 1: Lightly brush fingers across/away from the blade
edge. The burr will feel like a small 'ridge' or 'wire' at the edge.
