How can I avoid that sections are sticking to the pressure plate?
• There might be too much paraffin: Clean the knife with a swab moistened with xylene. Stroke the swab in an upward motion away from the blade edge, not down on the blade edge. • The pressure plate is dirty: Clean plate with a non-solvent containing cleaning reagent. • The coating of the pressure plate is damaged: After the usage of xylene for a long time for cleaning the pressure plate, the coating is removed. Please replace the front pressure plate. • Static: Spray static solution, increase humidity; ground the instrument.
