Preparing for use 

Sharpening Belt Alignment 

Place the front edge of the base plate so that it is level with the leading edge of the worktop or 

bench. Screw or bolt the base plate in this position. 
Ensure the on/off switch is in the 

OFF

 position and plug into a standard electric wall socket. Check 

the cable is in a safe position and that all moving parts of the machine are clear of any obstruction. 
Switch on the power at the wall socket and switch the system on. Before operating the machine 

please watch the belt to check for alignment, it has been pre-tracked in the factory but it may have 

moved during transit. 
Those marked* are included in the 

ProEdge

 Plus.

 

 

How to adjust the Belt Alignment 

While the system is running, place the two tracking adjustment bars into the holes in the spindle shaft 

and the locking collar. 

Hold the shaft stationary and slacken the locking collar (anti-clockwise) 

prior to moving the tracking shaft.

 Small adjustments of the tracking shaft will move the belt to the 

left and right on the pulley. 
Please ensure the belt is tracked to the right hand edge of the backplate.
