HINTS FOR USING KNIFE/SCISSOR SHARPENER
Be sure that blades are clean and free of grease. Greasy or wet blades
may coat the grinding wheel and the blade will not sharpen satisfactorily.
Do not attempt to sharpen hollow ground or serrated blades.
If the knife has a curved tip, raise the knife handle slightly at the end of
each sharpening.
Uneven sharpening may occur if you force the knife blade against the
Grinding Wheel.
Do not use the can opener, knife or scissors sharpener for more than
5 minutes at a time. Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes after sharpening
blades before using. This will prevent motor burnout due to overheating.
CARE AND CLEANING
Unplug the unit from electrical outlet.
1. To remove lever, hold the can opener facing you. Lift the lever upward to
the highest position (as shown in Figure 1) and push the lever to the
right.
2. Wash lever in warm, soapy water and wipe the outside surfaces of the

3. To replace the lever, hold the can opener facing you with the lever in the
lifted position and slide the pivot into the pivot hole. Push the lever to the
left until it snaps into place (see Figures 3 and 4). Lower the lever back
onto the top of the can opener.

Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must
