The knives must be sharpened so that the correct grinding angles are obtained,

otherwise the granulator will not operate effectively with lightly cutting knives.
During sharpening, the knife must be cooled the whole time with plenty of
water and must definitely not burn or start blueing on the edge since this means
that the knife lacks durability and stability. If this occurs, the knife cannot be
repaired by further grinding down or grinding away of the blued or burnt
colour. The tempered knife may have deep deformations with possible cracking
as a consequence.
