Silvercrest SEAS 20 A1 - Manual (Page 38)

• Always sharpen knives and scissors so that the blade is at an acute angle
to the grindstone (as alluded to in the shape of the opening). Sharpening
at the false angle can destroy any blade.
• After sharpening, remove any possible grinding remnants that may be on
the blade with a moist cloth.
If you have selected the setting "Knife with smooth edge" q (Fig. B):
• Always sharpen knives with a smooth edge on both sides – for this, left
and right side sharpening guides are available.
• In the left guide hold the knife inclined to the left, and in the right guide
inclined to the right, whilst drawing the blade through.
If you have selected the setting "Knife with serrated edge" w (Fig. C):
• Sharpen these only on the side with the serration – the draw through di-
rection for the knife is dependant on which side of the blade this is on.
• In general, serrated blades can only be sharpened up to a point. Knifes
with a fine sawtoothing (e.g. table knives) do not require sharpening.
If you have selected the setting "Scissor sharpening" e (Fig. D):
• Sharpen both scissor blades one after the other. For this, open the scissors
out and draw both blades, one after the other, through the guide.
Should you wish to grind a slot-screwdriver r flat (Fig. E):
• This is possible in every position of the function cap y . Appropriate to its
width, insert the screwdriver through one of the two grinding openings r
on the front of the function cap (see fold-out side). The end face of the
screwdriver will now be ground level and flat.
