Mounting

The base of this machine has holes for mounting
it to a workbench. Because of the forces applied
to the machine during operation, you MUST
firmly mount it to a workbench to prevent it
from tipping or shifting during operation. An
unexpected movement could result in injury or
property damage.
Place the base flat on the workbench, slide it
back until the stop flanges (see Figure 5) are
against the front of the workbench. Mounting the
sharpener in this manner will allow the necessary
access to the chain holder lock knob.

The strongest mounting option is a "Through
Mount" where holes are drilled all the way through
the workbench, then hex bolts, washers, and hex
nuts are used to secure the sharpener to the
workbench.

Another option for mounting is a "Direct Mount"
where the machine is simply secured to the work-
bench with a lag screw and flat washer.

NOTICE
There are mounting holes in the vertical
face of the base that can be used to mount
the sharpener to a wall. If you choose
this mounting position, make sure there
is enough room between the wall and the
swing arm lock knob so that you can use
the knob to change the angle of the grind-
ing wheel.
