TOOTH SHARPENING
•
Begin by chamfering shank back past edge of carbide. You do this because if it is not
back far enough the shank will hit the stump instead of the carbide, thus causing a lot
of vibration.
•
Once the shank is angled far enough back, then begin sharpening carbide.
•
Cut shank with a standard rock and cut carbide with a silicone carbide or diamond
rock.
WARNING
Grinding carbide can be a health hazard. Use a proper facemask to help prevent inhaling
harmful materials while grinding.
