Adjusting Bevel Bloc
®
Shoes (continued)
If you need to adjust the bevel on the knife edge to a differ-
ent length, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the machine from the power source.
2. Lower the knife to the bottom of the stroke with the
machine turning knob (Figure 2, F on page 3).
3. Lower the sharpener manually, by holding the sharp-
ener lever (Figure 2, E) halfway down to its neutral
position.
4. Pull the sharpener belt down to expose the set screw
(Figure 9 on page 11) on the Bevel Bloc.
5. Insert Allen wrench 95C5-5 into the set screw and
loosen it slightly.
6. For a longer bevel on the knife edge, move the key and
bloc to the rear. For a shorter bevel, move them to the
front.
7. Re-tighten the set screw.
8. Adjust the Bevel Blocs on both shoes.
9. Return the sharpener to the top (locked) position.
10. Check the stop screws on the sharpener shoes for
correct setting, as described in
Checking the Stop
Screw on the Sharpener Shoe
on page 9.
11. Color-mark the front sides of the knife edge with mark-
ing ink or a wax pencil. Reconnect and turn on power.
Then move the sharpener down and up several times.
12. Check the bevel on both sides of the knife. Readjust if
necessary.
