Sharpening the blades:
11.4)
Blades which are blunt on both sides must
be sharpened before resuming work.
In order to ensure optimum machine
operation, the blades should only be
sharpened by a technician. VIKING
recommends VIKING specialist dealers.
The specified tightening torque
must always be observed, as the
secure attachment of the cutting
tool depends upon it.
11.4)
Blunt shredding blades result in
deteriorating shredder
performance. A blunt reversible
blades can therefore be reversed
once.
● Remove the blades for sharpening.
● Cool the blades when sharpening,
e.g. with water. The blade must not be
allowed to display blue colouring, as
this would reduce its cutting quality.
● Sharpen the blade evenly to prevent
vibrations due to imbalance.
● Check blades for damage before
installing: The blades must be replaced
if notches or cracks are visible or if the
blades have reached the wear limits.
● Sharpen blades at a sharpening angle
11.4)
of 30°.
● Sharpen the blades against the cutting
edge.
● After sharpening, remove any
sharpening burr at the cutting edge
using fine sandpaper.
● Observe the tightening torques
contained in the "Reversing the blades"
section when installing the blades.
