The sharpener features a fully automatic, hands-free operation.
- Ensure the shavings reservoir is securely closed.
- Gently insert a pencil into the sharpening hole. The sharpener will automatically grip the pencil.
- The sharpener will automatically feed the pencil, sharpen it, and then eject it once the desired sharpness is achieved. This process typically takes 4-8 seconds.

Nota: This sharpener is suitable for pencils with a diameter of 6mm to 7.8mm. It is not recommended for very soft core colored pencils, as they may break during sharpening.
