Marathon Uni-Mill Questions

I just started milling my own wheat for bread by hand about 1 month ago and that got really old, real quick. While looking for my next "upgrade" I found this site.  What a wonderful site this it.  Thanks.

I just acquired a Marathon Uni-mill through ebay which is on its way as I type.  I am looking for some guidance regarding its use (milling settings, cleaning, general care, etc).  Any helpful tips, hints, suggestions would be great.

 

Thank you,

Cleaning Grinder Millstones

I just got a used Marathon Uni-Mill grinder, and when I took it apart to clean it thoroughly, I found old, hard layers of dust caking the stones. How do I get these clean? Do I have to send them somewhere to have them dressed (is that the term?)? Thanks!
