8.2 Torque adjustment

During heavy use, the friction drive may slip. If this
occurs, turn the torque adjust knob (Figure 10-3)
clockwise to increase pressure to the friction drive.
Note: When machine is not in use, or if additional
torque is not required, release the pressure to avoid
permanent deformation
components.

9.0 Basic operation

Always wear safety glasses or
face shield. Familiarize yourself with all safety
instructions in sect. 1.0 before operating this
machine. Failure to comply may result in serious
injury.
Make sure the water level in the
tank is sufficient to keep the stone wheel wet.
Never use the wheel dry – it will cause rapid
overheating and potential damage to wheel and
tool.
The rocker switch on the Wet Sharpener body starts
and stops the machine.
The speed adjustment knob can be set to
accommodate the particular sharpening or honing
procedure needed. It can also be used to
compensate for gradual
diameter.

The stone is designed for wet sharpening only.
Always fill the water tank with clean tap water, and
make sure the wheel contacts the water before
operating.

9.1 Stone wheel dressing

See Figure 9-1.
The supplied dual surface stone grader (S) dresses
the stone wheel for fine or coarse sharpening.
6. Start the machine.
7. Move the stone grader left/right evenly to dress
the stone.
8. The stone may be dressed for fine or coarse
sharpening at any time by using the correct side
of the stone grader.

9.2 Tool grinding

See Figure 9-2
Never perform any tool grinding operation freehand.
Tools to be sharpened must be held in the
appropriate fixture and be guided firmly so they will
not be thrown off during the sharpening process.
The wet sharpener may have to be turned to a more
convenient operating position.
Check that support arm is parallel to wheel surface.
Generally, you will achieve the best result by
grinding against the wheel. See Figure 9-2.
