This is a good time to inspect the rest of the
XT machine and perform any other necessary
maintenance, see page 32.
For best performance and longevity of
the Auto Sharpener we highly recom-
mend the use of a dust extraction sys-
tem.
For more information contact DAREX @
800-547-0222.
Once maintenance has been com-
pleted, using the “Arrow up” “Arrow
down” buttons, highlight “Yes”.
To select yes press the select button.
This will clear the “Maintenance Alert”
and you may resume sharpening.
This unit will display a “Maintenance Alert“
when maintenance is required.
The screen will display:
Every 100 sharpenings this alert will appear as
a reminder to perform the required routine
maintenance listed below. Performing this
maintenance will keep the auto sharpening
fixture running properly and extend the life of
the components. It will also help prevent ex-
cessive grit build up which will cause prema-
ture sharpening interruptions.
1. Power off the machine, waiting to perform
the maintenance only once the grinding wheel
has come to a complete stop.
Disconnect the
power from the machine using a lock out tag
out procedure.
2. Vacuum any grit found on the machine.
Pay special attention to the electronic control-
ler, the Follower Cam Tube Assembly and
Chuck Tube Liner.
NOTE: Do not use an air gun, as this can blow
grit into the Controller/Display housing or the
Follower Cam Tube Assembly on the sharpen-
ing port.
3. Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe down the
chuck bodies and the inside liner of the chuck
port. After using a dry cloth to clean these,
use the lubricated cloth, (gun cloth or similar)
provided, to re-apply a very fine lubrication to
these surfaces. (You can also use a clean cloth
with a light spray of silicone. Avoid aggressive
solvent based lubricants like WD-40.)
