GRINDING WHEELS
Grinding wheels should be inspected before each use. Store the grinding wheels to prevent them from the potential
hazards of moisture, containments and other damage.
To replace a grinding wheel:
1. Disconnect the sharpener from the power supply.
2. Hold the wheel to prevent it from rotating. Remove either the arbor nut or the knob that is holding the wheel in
place.
3. Remove the outer washer and then remove the wheel. Store the outer washer in a safe space.
4. Install the new wheel. Replace the washer and the nut/knob. Watch that the wheel rotates evenly on startup.
GRINDING WHEELS
Periodically empty out the water reservoir. Rinse it of any metal filaments and refill it with clean water to prevent
buildup on the wheel itself. Your cleaning schedule should depend on frequency of use. Make sure water levels are
always sufficient enough to keep the wheel wet during grinding operations.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: For your own safety, turn the switch OFF and remove the plug from the electrical outlet before
adjusting or performing maintenance or lubrication work on the sharpener.
Before using, check to make sure parts are not damaged, missing, or worn. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, improper mounting, or any other conditions that may affect the sharpener’s operation. If
any of these conditions exist, do not use until parts are replaced or the sharpener is properly repaired. Frequently
blow or vacuum dust from all surfaces and the motor housing.
WARNING: Any attempt to repair or replace electrical parts on this tool may be hazardous. Repairs should be
done by a qualified service technician.
