POSITIONING THE MACHINE
Place the machine on a stable, flat work surface. The ma-
chine has four rubber feet pre-installed to increase stability
and reduce vibration. Make sure there is sufficient open
space around the machine. Route the power cord so that
it will not make contact with the sharpener’s moving parts.
INSTALLING THE GRINDING WHEEL
A 220-grit grinding wheel is included with your sharpener,
and needs to be installed. Check the grinding wheel regu-
larly to make sure that it is free or damage or cracks.
1. Remove the locking nut (Fig. 2 – 1) using a 19mm
wrench or socket. Slide the outer flange (Fig. 2 - 2) off the
spindle.
2. Install the grinding wheel (Fig. 2 - 3) onto the spindle
(Fig. 2 - 4), flush against the inner flange (Fig. 2 - 5).
3. Slide the outer flange onto the spindle.
4. Install and tighten the locking nut.
5. Rotate the grinding wheel by hand a few turns to check
that the wheel is balanced and rotates smoothly.
INSTALLING THE WATER RESERVOIR
There are two mounting positions on the grinding wheel
side of the machine for installing the water reservoir. For
new wheels, use the lower mounting slots (Fig. 3 - 2). As
the wheel gets used, you will need to adjust the water res-
ervoir to the upper slots (Fig. 3 - 3).
1. Install a new 10-inch grinding wheel.
2. Slide the notches on the water reservoir (Fig. 3 - 1) into
the two
lower
mounting slots (Fig. 3 - 2).
3. Fill the water reservoir. See "Filling The Water Reservoir"
on page 14.

Do not plug in or turn on the tool until it is fully assembled according to the instructions. Read
through and become familiarized with the following procedures of handling and adjusting your tool. Failure to

NOTE:
Once the grinding wheel has been worn
down to roughly 8 inches in diameter, move the
water reservoir up to the
upper
mounting slots
(Fig. 3 - 3). This will allow the wheel to make
sufficient contact with the water in the reservoir.
