Attention before use
- Make sure the coffee grinder is unplugged or the On/Off switch is off.
- Make sure there are no coffee beans in the bean container.
- Loosen the hand-lock screw counter-clockwise until the bean box can be removed upwards. (Note: If there are coffee beans inside the bean container, you need to push the bean stop plate inward to the end before removing the bean hopper to prevent the coffee beans from leaking out).
TIPS: The initial position is the finest setting. Turn counterclockwise to make it coarser. Do not turn clockwise!

- Rotate the Grind Size Selector (clockwise rotation for fine, counterclockwise rotation for coarse) to select the appropriate coarseness. Total 100 coarseness setting options. When the number on the scale circle is aligned with the reference point on the top cover, it represents the coarseness setting selected.
