Troubleshooting
Pencil lead breaks repeatedly during sharpening
Use a lighter touch during the rotation. Ensure the pencil is not being pressed too deeply into the blade housing.
Sharpener leaves a jagged edge on the wood

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required for the KIKO Milano Sharpener; it is ready to use immediately upon removal from its packaging. It is compatible with all standard-diameter wooden beauty pencils. To maintain the life of the blade, avoid using the sharpener on plastic-cased pencils or crayons that are too soft or waxy, as residue can build up on the blade edge. Regularly clear out pencil shavings from the reservoir after each use to prevent buildup. If the blade becomes clogged with pencil wax, gently remove the debris using a dry cotton swab or a small, soft-bristled brush. Store in a cool, dry place to prevent the blade from dulling due to moisture exposure.
