Staples 34462 電動鉛筆削り トラブルシューティング

Same problem. This is a sharpener we bought for our company. It has to stay open to stop sharpening and to sharpen I need to simultaneously close the sharpener, hold the pencil, and open the sharpener when the pencil is done sharpening. What a nuisance.

If it’s always on whenever the sharpener is closed, my guess is that something on the inside has broken. I had the exact same problem with another electric sharpener, and I ended up having to superglue one of the parts on the inside in place bc some pegs had broken. Long story short, it turns out the pegs had been keeping the electric circuit from being completed when the sharpener was closed, which is why I had to open it up just to turn it off. Granted it was a different brand of electric sharpener, so I can’t say with 100% certainty what is broken with yours. But if closing it is what completes the circuit to turn it on, it probably means some part on the inside is touching where it previously was not able to, which means that whatever is preventing that part from touching and completing the circuit has either broken or moved out of place. It’s hard for me to explain without some sort of visual aid, so I hope that made sense.
