OPERATING CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENTS

STARTING AND STOPPING

UTILITY SHARPENER

The “Forward / Off / Reverse” switch (A) Fig. 6, is located

toward the front of the machine. To turn the machine

“ON”, move the switch to the “Forward” or “Reverse”

position. The wheel will turn in the direction indicated by

the arrows. In the “Forward” position, the wheel will

rotate toward the front of the machine. In the “Reverse”

position, the wheel will rotate toward the rear of the

machine. To turn the machine “OFF”, move the switch to

the center “OFF” position.

TOOL RESTS

Each tool rest assembly (D) Fig. 7, is adjustable so it can

be positioned as close to the grinding wheel as possible,

giving maximum support to the piece that is being

ground. Always maintain a distance of 1/8" or less

between the grinding wheel and the inside edge of the

tool rest. WARNING: As the wheels wear down, the

tool rest should be adjusted accordingly. When the tool

rests are positioned correctly, tighten screws (C) and (F)

with hex wrench (G).

MAINTENANCE

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE.

2. Clean the machine with a clean dry rag. WARNING: DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS TO CLEAN THE

UTILITY SHARPENER.

3. Inspect the wheel for any chips or cracks.

WARNING: DO NOT USE THE UTILITY SHARPENER IF THE WHEEL IS DAMAGED IN ANY WAY.

SHARPENING HINTS

1. Before sharpening an item, make sure the item is clean, and free of any loose particles.

2. When sharpening an item, use light pressure, and pass the item across the wheel until a fine edge is produced.

Heavy pressure will cause the edge to be ragged.

3. Do not sharpen tools, blades, bits, etc, that are bent or cracked. These items should be discarded.

4. The Utility Sharpener should not be used to remove large amounts of material. The Utility Sharpener uses a much

finer grit wheel, and rotates at a slower pace then a bench grinder.
