Your RG600PRO sharpener can perform in two different sharpening modes: ECONOMY and PERFORMANCE mode. ECONOMY is the normal and recommended mode. You can switch to PERFORMANCE mode with the right joystick. On page 1 toggle the right joystick forward. PERFORMANCE mode should only be used when long sharpening cycles are required (30sec +). In performance mode the sharpening tools experience significantly more wear. |
