10.
Carefully place slide bar assembly on slide table, as
shown in
Figure.17
, loosen table lock, then lower
grinder table until wheel just makes contact with
knife.
Note:.
Make sure grinder table and top wheel
surface are level with each other. You may have to
push down or pull up on one side of grinder table to
make them level with each other.
11.
Use slide bar to slowly move blade across wheel
from one side to other and note movement of wheel.
— If wheel moves evenly when knife moves across it
from one to the other, continue with
Step.12
.
— If wheel does not move evenly when knife slides
across from one end to other, either knife is not
evenly mounted in slide bar or surface of wheel
is not level with grinder table. To ensure good
grinding results, you must make knife bevel level
and parallel with wheel surface along its entire
length before continuing with this procedure.

When you are satisfied that knife extends beyond
slide bar same amount along its length and that
supporting adjustment screws are all making even
contact with back of knife, re-tighten jam nuts and
attach knife clamp to slide bar by hand-tightening
five lock screws, shown in
Figure.16
.
9.
Use fine ruler to re-check distance knife extends
from the slide bar.
— If distance is not correct or same along full length
of the knife, slightly loosen knife clamp lock
knobs and adjust slide bar adjustment screws until
extended distance is correct. Re-tighten jam nut
and clamp lock knobs and check distance again.
If necessary, repeat this process until distance is
correct and knife is securely clamped.
