5. Arahan Operasi
The Edlund Model 401 features a two-stage sharpening process: a coarse grit for initial sharpening and a medium grit for honing and finishing. The precise guidance system ensures consistent blade angles.
- Hidupkan kuasa: Flip the lighted rocker switch to the "ON" position. The light will illuminate, indicating the motor is running.
- Mengasah Stage 1 (Kasar):
- Hold the knife with the blade facing away from you.
- Insert the knife blade into the coarse sharpening slot (typically the slot furthest from the power switch) at the heel of the blade.
- Draw the knife slowly and steadily towards you, maintaining light, even pressure. The guidance system will hold the blade at the correct angle.
- Repeat this process 3-5 times for each side of the blade, alternating sides.
- Mengasah Stage 2 (Medium/Honing):
- Move the knife blade to the medium/honing slot (typically the slot closer to the power switch).
- Draw the knife slowly and steadily towards you, applying very light pressure.
- Repeat this process 1-2 times for each side of the blade, alternating sides, to refine the edge.
- Testing the Edge: Carefully test the sharpness of the blade. If not sufficiently sharp, repeat the honing stage.
- Scalloped Edged Knives: For scalloped or serrated knives, use only the medium/honing slot. Draw the knife through the slot with very light pressure, focusing on sharpening the points of the serrations. Do not use the coarse slot for serrated knives.
- Matikan: Once sharpening is complete, flip the rocker switch to the "OFF" position and unplug the unit.
