See Figure 3-4.
Place the provided spacer bar flat against the rear clamp plate. Install the
provided alignment tool to the grinding wheel shaft. Install the provided 1/2” spacer
washer and replace the arbor washer and nut. Hold the shaft with the provided tool and
tighten the arbor nut.
Adjust the depth grind adjustment knob to lower the grinder head until the three alignment
tool gauge screws are positioned in front of the clamp spacer bar. All three screws should
touch the spacer bar.
If adjustment is necessary, remove the roll pins at the base of the grinder assembly and
loosen the four mounting bolts. Slide the grinder assembly forward or back as necessary
until all three alignment tool gauge screws touch the clamp spacer bar.
Retighten the grinder assembly mounting bolts. Drill new holes if necessary and reinstall
the roll pins.
Remove the alignment tool and washers from the grinding wheel shaft and replace the
grinding wheel, flat washer and arbor nut. Reinstall the grinding wheel cover and thumb
screws. Place the oiler assembly back in position and tighten the top oiler mounting bolt.
Remove the clamp spacer bar and adjust the blade rest pins to their original position and
tighten the locking set screws.
Inspect the clamp wear plate for damage or excessive wear and replace if necessary.
