Using the Power-edge
Prepare Skis or Snowboard
Use a brake retainer to lift ski-brakes up and out of the way.
Make sure that the sidewalls are recessed from the metal edge. If necessary,
cut the sidewalls away with a sidewall planer or a body le. If the sidewall is not
cut back, the grinding wheel may become clogged by sidewall plastic and will
not work effectively. Similarly, any wax residue and any other dirt on the edges
must also be removed to avoid clogging the wheel.
Secure the ski/board upside-down with the base to the top. Do not clamp the
ski/board, just rest it on non-slip supports.
NOTE: Grinding is much easier if you
use a suitable commercial ski or
snowboard vice.
Set the grinding angle
Use a screwdriver to adjust both angle-adjustment screws to the desired angle
(commonly 88° but check the ski/board manufacturer rst).
Make sure both screws are set to the same angle.
Ensure both angle adjusters (
b
) are set to the same angle
