Face Grind Adjustment
As you operate the sharpener, the cam will rotate causing the index arm to contact a tooth and push
it to a position under the grinding wheel. The index arm can be adjusted to leave the tooth closer to
or further from the grinding wheel so the tooth face is ground lighter or heavier.
1.
Before adjusting the face grind, make sure the cam and grinder motors are off and the feed rate dial
is set at "0".
2.
Manually raise the sharpener head.
3.
Turn on the cam motor. Slowly increase the FEED RATE until the next tooth is underneath the
grinding wheel.
4.
Lower the sharpener head and make sure the grinding wheel lightly contacts the entire face of the
tooth all the way up to the tip.
5.
Turn on the grinder motor.
See Figure 2-6.
If the face grind is too light, turn the face grind adjustment knob out, away from the
other knob. If the face grind is too heavy, turn the adjustment knob in, toward the other knob.
6.
Check the face grind on the next tooth and adjust as needed.
