1. If you know the angle of the chain, rotate the table (11) to the same angle as the
chain. To rotate the table loosen the table lock knob (10) and rotate the table until
the scale indicator lines up with the scale on the base of the sharpener.
2. If you do not know the angle of the chain set, the table angle to 35°. Take hold of the
hand piece and bring down so the disc is slowly lowered into the chain, along the
cutting tooth. Slowly move the table so the cutting face of the tooth is parallel with the
edge of the disc. The most common chain angles are 30 - 35°. It may be necessary to
slide the chain slightly to allow the disc to enter down the face of the tooth.
3. Once the correct angle as been achieved tighten the table locking knob (10) to
lock the table in the current position. After the table is locked in the required
position, take hold of the hand piece (1) and lower the head assembly till the disc
is aligned along the tooth of the chain. Confirm the angle then slide the chain so
the face of the tooth is just touching the face of the disc.
4. Lock the guide (9) by rotating the clamping lever (13) as far as it will go in a
clockwise direction. Ensure the chain is clamped firmly into the sliding guide.
Should the chain still not be clamped, pull the clamping lever outwards (away from
the guide), turn the lever anti-clockwise

of a turn. Push the lever back in
towards the guide. Proceed to rotate the lever fully clockwise. Check the chain is
clamped. Should it still not be clamped, repeat the process above.
Adjusting the chain (tooth) stop
1. With the chain clamped in position, rotate the
chain stop in behind the chain tooth aligned
with the grinding disc from the previous setting.
2. Adjust the chain stop so as the chain stop is
firmly behind and at the bottom of the aligned
chain tooth by rotating the chain stop
adjustment knob either clockwise to move the
chain stop forward or anti-clockwise to move
the chain stop backward.
3. When the chain stop is properly adjusted it
should be directly behind the chain tooth as
shown in Fig. G. To secure in position rotate
the lock knob clockwise as far as possible.
See Fig. G.
Adjusting the depth of cut
1. Ensure the chain is still locked in place, the chain stop still flipped into position and
the chain stop adjustment knobs still secured. See Fig. G.
2. Rotate the depth adjustment knob (FIG. H) clockwise as far as it will go (so as much
of the pin is exposed under the head piece as possible).
3. Rotate the lock knob towards the housing of the tool as pictured in Fig. H.
4. Lower disc towards the face of the tooth. The depth pin should meet the depth
stop platform and stop the disc from traveling the full distance to the tooth.
