Sharpening The Blade; Motor Unit - BETCHER INDUSTRIES WHIZARD Power Knife Manual Del Usuario

Operating
Instructions
8.1 Headpiece Assembly (continued)

SHARPENING the Blade

Carefully lower the blade down against the stone. DO NOT get your fingers near the revolving blade, as it is
extremely sharp. Keep the blade level and parallel with the stone. Hold the blade against the stone while
moving it lightly back and forth. Do this just long enough to make the bottom surface of the blade smooth and
flat.
After sharpening is complete, steel the blade following the instructions. Clean Headpiece thoroughly after
sharpening to remove all abrasive dust, following the instructions given. NOTE: Both serrated-edge blades
and straight- edge blades are sharpened and steeled in the same manner.
Blades may also be returned to Bettcher Industries for sharpening, using the small shipping box included with
your Power Knife. There is a fee for this service.

Reassemble the tool
Place the sharpening stone on a soft, non-

Unit.
The finned driver is removable. The
handle has a slot at one end as shown to
allow access to the setscrew. Loosen the
setscrew and remove the driver. When
replacing the driver, make sure the fins are
seated properly in the metal adapter before
tightening the setscrew. Do not over tighten
the setscrew as it can damage the plastic
driver. A drop of nail polish or threadlocker
may be applied to the threads to prevent
loosening. The setscrew should be checked
periodically, as well as the condition of the
driver.
IMPORTANT: The Motor Unit is not
waterproof. DO NOT IMMERSE IT IN
WATER! Damage to the motor could
result.
