LIGNMENT
: BMS 250
The Wood-Mizer CBN wheel grinders are designed to sharpen the saw blades by a full plunge grind. This means the
grinding wheel is designed to have the same profile as the blade you are sharpening. A full plunge grind requires the
blade to be properly aligned so the wheel lowers fully into the gullet of the blade. Not doing so can ruin the profile of
the blade and wear out the CBN wheel too quickly.

1. With the head raised, insert blade into the clamp. Raise or lower the blade so the bottom of the gullet is level with the clamp
or slightly above.
2. With the head still raised, operate the pawl for a couple of strokes to move the blade forward.
3. Lower the head so the CBN wheel just misses the face of the tooth on the blade. Adjust the pawl to adjust the blade position.
