Operation
Warning! Always unplug the unit while adjusting chain to be sharpened.
Refer to the Assembly Drawing on page 10 and the various photographs.
Note: Raise the Top Housing (4B) while adjusting the chain.
1. Clean the chain before sharpening. Wash it with a nonflammable solvent. Do not use gasoline. Dry the
chain.
2. Lift up the Chain Stop (23) and secure the chain in the Sliding Guides (31). See FIGURE 6.
3. Lower the Chain Stop (23) so that it is positioned on the tooth (cutter) you want to start with.
See FIGURE 5.
4. See FIGURES 5 & 6. Loosen the Lock Wheel (18) to allow entire housing to turn. Rotate the housing to
match the degree of angle you need on the Angle Gauge. Chains come in various sizes with varying
degrees of sharpening angles. Check with your chain manufacturer’s manual to determine what degree
you need to sharpen at. Once the degree is set, tighten the Lock Wheel (18).
5. Lower the Top Housing (4B) so that the
Grinding Wheel (8) skims the chain
tooth.
6. Hold it at that position while you tighten
the Lock Stop (6) so that the wheel will
only go down to that point.
See FIGURE 7.
7. Depending on the amount of material you
wish to remove, tighten or loosen the
Lower Knob (26) and set the Lock Nut.
See FIGURE 5. The Lower Knob (26)
has a Lock Nut which will determine how
much material is removed. Once you set
the Lock Nut, fully tighten the Lower
Knob (26).
