This Sharpening system comes in 2 grits. Course and fine. If you have never sharpened your plades or plates before you might want to start with the course then hit it with the fine. As regular maintenance the fine would be sufficient.

The kit also comes in different sizes (depending on your unit) Check out the link provided below and select the appropriate size and grit that you want to get. I'm using a #22 but they have all the sizes. Be sure to check your model before purchasing.


You can get the sharpening plates here. Be sure to select the right size for your grinder and the right grit (fine or course).

To use select the grit that you want to start with. Soak the stones for 3-5 minutes. Gently assemble the grinder with the appropriate stone in place. Be sure tp attach the retaining ring without using a lot of force. Tighten it but not too tight.

Turn your grinder on for 5 seconds. Turn off and remove the stone. Repeat the process for both sides of the plate and the knife.

Once finished rub both sides of the plate and the knife across a piece of cardboard to remove the burr that was formed.

Maintain the sharpness with the fine grit stone and enjoy great results for years to come.
