• Set a gap of 1mm from the inner blade tip to anvil after sharpening.
To do so, place an appropriate shim under the blade.
• The outer blade tip is automatically set, as the anvil is set at an angle to the
blade.
• With a 1 mm gap at the inner blade tip, the outer blade tip should be 3 mm from
the anvil.
