I would like some information and instructions on how to sharpen different type of blades using this machine.

I have no idea if this will help any but I searched it and found a pdf with the manual of the machine. Hope it helps and if not post back and I'm sure someone with actual knowledge will help.

I have not had good luck with equipment from this company. If you intend to do lots of sharpening I'd suggest looking for a higher quality brand. Where have you seen or heard of brands like Central or Chicago other than their catalogue?
