ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS
INSTALLING THE GRINDING WHEEL
A 220-grit grinding wheel is included with your
sharpener, and needs to be installed. Check the
grinding wheel regularly to make sure that it is
free or damage or cracks.
1. Slide the inner washer (Fig. 1 - 1) onto the spin-
dle, with the washer’s flange facing away from
the body of the machine.
2. Install the grinding wheel (Fig. 1 - 2) onto the
spindle, with the depressed center facing away
from the body of the machine.
3. Slide the outer washer (Fig. 1 - 3) onto the spin-
dle, with the flange facing the grinding wheel.
4. Install the locking nut (Fig. 1 - 4). Tighten it us-
ing a
19mm wrench or socket.
5. Rotate the grinding wheel by hand a few turns
to check that the wheel is balanced and rotates
smoothly.
POSITIONING THE MACHINE
Place the machine on a stable, flat work surface. The machine 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 WATER RESERVOIR
There are two mounting positions on the grinding
wheel side of the machine for installing the water
reservoir (Fig. 2).
With a new 10-inch grinding wheel installed, use
the LOWER mounting slots. Place the lips of the
container into the two lower mounting slots.

WARNING:
To prevent accidental starting, make sure the machine is switched OFF and the power
plug is disconnected before assembly, setting up or making adjustments.

Once the grinding wheel has been worn down to roughly 8 inches in diameter, move the water reservoir up to
the HIGHER mounting slots. This will allow the wheel to make sufficient contact with the water in the reservoir.
