1. Hold the polishing compound against the running polishing wheel [17-1]
until the surface is covered.
2. Clean the hoof knife before use.
3. Position the hoof knife [17-2] with the groove [17-3] downwards on the
grinding machine so that the cutting edge points in the direction of
rotation of the polishing wheel.
4. Position the hoof knife slanted relative to the running direction and polish
the entire cutting edge.
Position the hoof knife at the polishing wheel at a more obtuse angle

than for grinding.
5. Polish the hoof knife until the burr has been completely removed and the
surface has reached the required polish.
6. Turn over the hoof knife and align it at a slant to the polishing wheel.
7. Run the outside of the hoof knife along the cutting edge on the polishing
wheel, from the beginning of the cutting edge to the entire curve of the
groove.

RISK OF INJURY DUE TO THE GROOVE GETTING
CAUGHT IN THE POLISHING WHEEL
Make sure that the groove does not touch the polishing wheel,
as the groove can get caught, causing the hoof knife to be torn
out of the user's hand.
