5.3 Blade Removal
Blade removal is similar to blade installation. Before removing a blade, ensure all motors
are turned off.
Remove a blade:
1. Use the jog switch to move the pusher into the highest position that allows the blade to be
removed.
2. While supporting the motor:
a. Remove the wing nut that attaches the top rod end to the motor mount.
b. Slide the turnbuckle assembly off the head.
c. Rotate the sharpener head back so that it rests in the most upright position.
d. Lift the indexing arm.
CAUTION! When disconnecting or reattaching the sharpener head, be
sure to keep it supported. Do not allow the sharpener to fall. It may
damage the grinding wheel or the blade, and may cause personal
injury.
3. Remove the blade from the sharpener.
4. Lower the indexing arm.
5. Reposition the sharpener head by replacing the wing nut that attaches the top rod end to
the motor mount.
6. Turn on the grinder motor by setting the switch to the “on” position.
7. Lightly dress the grinding wheel to remove particles that may have embedded in the
wheel.
8. Turn off the sharpener.
CAUTION! Always turn off the sharpener after you have finished
sharpening for the day.
