10. Insert the blade back again in reverse order.
Ensure value preservation of the blade
For long-lasting sharpness and value retention of your Graef blade, werecommend to clean
it in regular intervals, especially after cutting up salted meat and/or ham. These foodstuffs
contain salts, when they stay on the surface of the blade for a longer period of time, may even
form a rust film (even on "stainless" steel).
When cutting up slicing material which contains a lot of water, such as tomatoes or cucumbers,
lacking or wrong (too "wet") cleaning may also lead to a rust film on the blade surface. For
this reason we recommend to use a moist cloth, and if necessary some washing-up liquid, to
clean the blade directly after use.
From time to time, unscrew the blade and clean the unit on the inside. Especially, when "juicy"
slicing material (vegetables, fruit, roasts, et cetera) have been cut. Treat the blade with the
upmost of care.
Greasing the unit on the inside
Regular greasing will increase the service life of your unit. For this purpose, exclusively use
Graef petroleum jelly which is matched to our units. You can obtain them in our online shop
at www.graef.de under item No. 141842.
When greasing the blade, proceed with utmost care as follows:
1. Remove the blade
2. Grease the gearwheel with petroleum jelly.
3. Grease the blade bolt with petroleum jelly.
4. Also grease the blade screw with petroleum jelly.
5. Place the wiper ring in the unit again and grease it using petroleum jelly.
6. Place the blade back in again.
