Daily Care
-
Clean After Use
Wipe down the wheel and arm with a damp cloth after each use. Remove any dough residue to prevent buildup.
-
Gentle Cleaning
Use warm water and mild soap if needed. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
-
Dry Thoroughly
Ensure all parts are completely dry before storing. Moisture can cause corrosion over time.
Storage
-
Proper Storage
Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight. The included storage case protects against dust and damage.
-
Temperature Control
Avoid extreme temperatures. Store at room temperature to prevent warping or cracking of the wooden handle.
Maintenance
-
Bearing Care
The ABEC-5 bearings are sealed and require no maintenance. Avoid submerging the wheel in water.
-
Handle Maintenance
For wooden handles, apply a light coat of food-safe oil occasionally to maintain the finish and prevent drying.
-
Brass Care
The brass wheel will develop a natural patina over time. This is normal and doesn't affect performance.
