Use a soft and moist cloth to clean the
outer surfaces of the unit. Use a mild
detergent in case of heavy soiling.
Preservation of value - blade
For a long-lasting sharpness and for a
preservation of the value of your Graef
blade we recommend that the blade be
cleaned in regular intervals, especially
after cutting cured meat or ham. They
contain salts which when on the blade
surface for a longer period of time
could produce so-called "rust film"
( on "stainless steel" as well). When
cutting products which contain a lot of
water, such as tomatoes or cucumbers,
a lack or wrong (too "wet") cleaning
may produce rust on the blade surface.
For this reason we recommend that
you use a moist cloth and a bit of
detergent, if and when necessary,
to clean the blade directly after use.
Never put the blade in a dishwasher,
firstly due to decrease in sharpness and
corrosion resistance (salts attack the
blade), and secondly due to safety in
handling the blade whilst loading and
unloading the dishwasher.

cover plate (H) in reverse order. Place
the blade cover plate (H), turn it
clockwise by 45 deg. until it snaps in
briefly and does not drop off.
