along the edge of these teeth. Generally ﬁve (5) to ten (10) pairs of alternating pulls in left and

right slots of Stage 3 will be adequate. If the knife is very dull more pulls will be needed. If

the knife edge has been severely damaged thru use make one fast pull (2-3 seconds for an

8” blade) in each of the right and left slots of Stage 2, then make a series of pulls in Stage 3,

alternating right and left slots. Excessive use of Stage 2 will remove more metal along the edge

than is necessary in order to sharpen the teeth.

Because serrated blades are saw-like structures, the edges will never appear to be as “sharp”

as the edge on a straight edge knife. However, their tooth-like structure can be helpful – for

example to break the skin on hard crusty foods or to cut tough paper based materials.

DRESSING OF STROPPING/POLISHING DISKS – STAGE 3

The Model 1520 is equipped with a built-in system to manually clean/dress the stropping/

polishing disks in Stage 3. In the event these disks become glazed with grease, food or sharpening

debris, they can be cleaned and reshaped by actuating the manual lever on the rear of the

sharpener. This lever is located within a recess as shown in Figure 15 on the lower left corner as

you face the rear of the sharpener. To actuate the cleaning/dressing tool, make sure the power

is “ON” and simply press the small lever in the recess to the right, hold about 3-4 seconds and

then press to the left holding for 3-4 seconds. When the lever is moved in one direction, the

dressing tool cleans and reshapes the active surface of one stropping/polishing disk. By moving

the lever in the opposite direction you clean the other disk.

Use this clean/dress mechanism only if the Stage 3 white disks are seriously darkened and

when Stage 3 no longer appears to be stropping/polishing well. Using this tool removes

material from the surface of the Stage 3 disks and hence, if used excessively, it will

unnecessarily remove too much of the abrasive surface – wearing the disks prematurely. If

that should occur, factory replacement of the disks will become necessary. If you clean your

knives regularly before sharpening you will likely need to clean or dress the Stage 3 disks less

than once a year.
