Reversing, Cleaning, and Replacement of Triangular Ceramic Stones
The module that holds the manual sharpening materials can easily be removed
from the top of the machine (Fig. 1) and opened so that the ceramic stones can be
reversed, cleaned, and/or replaced.
The brown ceramic darkens with use as the metal dust collects on the working
corners of the triangular stones, thus decreasing their sharpening capabilities. The
ceramic stones can be removed (Fig 2.) and rotated to expose an unused section
of ceramic or cleaned to refresh their abrasive quality. If rotating to use the other
side, spin each stone 180º then swap positions (Fig. 3). Use a small, nylon brush
to scrub the surface of the ceramic stones with kitchen cleansing powder and
water. After all possible working surfaces of the ceramic stones have been well
used and cleaning the stones does not increase their effectiveness, you should
replace the stones.

Reversing and Replacement of Carbide Sharpening Blades
The module that holds both of the manual sharpening materials can be easily
removed from the top of the machine and opened so that the carbides and the
ceramic stones can be reversed, replaced, and/or cleaned.
Carbides
The carbide cutting blades are reversible and replaceable. When the blades stop
cutting, they can be reversed and used on the other end or replaced.
Step 1. To reverse the blades, remove the module as shown in Fig 1.
Step 2. Next, remove the carbides and swap their positions. You should now be using
the opposite end of each carbide blade.
Step 3. Replace the module to secure the carbide blades in place.
Note: Once both ends of the carbides stop cutting, then the carbide heads should
be replaced. Replacement blades are available through Edgeware Customer
Service Department at (+1) 501 321-2244 or by visiting our website at www.
