When the sharpener moves the Grinding Ring out and back over the

skate blade once, it is called a cycle.

The Sparx™ Sharpener comes set automatically to a standard

four cycles with all standard Radius Ring™ and FIRE Ring™ Grinding

Rings. We recommend trying four cycles to start and moving higher

or lower as needed. Typically, we have found that four cycles will

handle normal wear and tear (and even small nicks) from one to four

hours of skating between sharpenings. For brand-new steel or when

changing Grinding Ring hollow depths, we recommend using the

10-cycle setting to ensure you completely reset the skating surface

of the blade. See Sharpening New Steel at the end of the Operation

section.

Left and

Right Buttons (A) on the Keypad to
