SHARPENING THE CUTTING BLADES

The cutting blades should be sharpened in grinding workshops which have proper tools for
this type of work. Sharpening consists in grinding the factory-machined surface using a
grindstone in such a manner as to achieve the angle of 22-23
must be very intensively cooled. Overheated blade must not be further used because the
cutting edge hardness is reduced.
Sharpening the blades with an angle grinder is permissible. Take breaks when sharpening
the blades with an angle grinder in order to cool down the knives. When sharpening the
blades, pay attention to the colour of the blade edge so as not to overlook the tampering
process.
The blade cutting edge should be checked at least every two weeks of the mixer feeder
use.
