Grinding Wheel Replacement
Check the grinding wheel often and change as necessary. Wheels approved for use with
the sharpener are available from Wood-Mizer.
The grinding wheel should be in good condition. Replace if worn, the edges look shiny,
and/or the wheel is "burning" the blades.
NOTE:
The grinding wheels have a CBN (Cubic
Boran Nitride) coating.
