USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Use of incorrect or improper accessories could cause serious injury to the operator and cause damage to the tool.
If in doubt, check the instruction manual that comes with that particular accessory. -
NEVER LEAVE A RUNNING TOOL UNATTENDED. Turn the power switch to the “OFF” position. DO NOT leave the tool until it has come to a complete stop.
-
DO NOT STAND ON A TOOL. Serious injury could result if the tool tips over or you accidentally contact the tool.
-
DO NOT store anything above or near the tool where anyone might try to stand on the tool to reach it.
-
MAINTAIN YOUR BALANCE. DO NOT extend yourself over the tool. Wear oil resistant rubber-soled shoes. Keep floor clear of debris, grease, and wax.
-
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Always keep tools clean and in good working order. Keep all blades and tool bits sharp.
-
EACH AND EVERY TIME, CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS PRIOR TO USING THE TOOL. Carefully check all guards to see that they operate properly, are not damaged, and perform their intended functions. Check for alignment, binding or breaking of moving parts. A guard or other part that is damaged should be immediately repaired or replaced.
-
CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA by removing switch keys, unplugging tools from the electrical receptacles, and using padlocks.
-
DO NOT OPERATE TOOL IF UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.
-
SECURE ALL WORK. Use clamps or jigs to secure the workpiece. This is safer than attempting to hold the workpiece with your hands.
KNOW YOUR SHARPENER
The Sharpener is designed with numerous features to quickly and safely sharpen various items around the house and workshop. A fine grit grinding wheel is used to produce a sharp and precise cutting edge. Two multi-position tool rests provide a firm work surface at a variety of angles. A water trough is used to keep the grinding wheel and the workpiece cool during sharpening operations. The Sharpener additionally has been fitted with an electrical power switch that permits the grinding wheel to rotate in the Forward and Reverse directions.
The Sharpener will put a sharp edge on knives, scissors, and flat chisels with a minimal amount of effort and skill needed by the user. Sharp tools cut more quickly, safely and efficiently. A dull edge will require the user to apply more pressure to the workpiece, possibly causing injury to the user. Keeping the cutting tools sharp will provide many years of useful service. Periodic sharpening will prevent the tools from losing the bevel that was put on by the manufacturer originally. The factory bevel is what you should use when sharpening any tool.
Sharpening is an easy operation to perform as long as the following items are followed:
- CLEAN the item to be sharpened prior to beginning any sharpening operations.
- ALWAYS use the factory bevel (cutting edge angle) as a guide to sharpening the tool.
- SHARPEN the tools prior to starting any job involving the tools. The user will then be less likely to rush the sharpening procedure, and then will do a safer and better job.
- SHARPEN the tools in numerous light pressure passes instead of heavily pressing the tool against the grinding wheel. Light passes will be safer and produce a much sharper edge on the tool. Heavy passes will create a ragged and rough edge on the tool.
- DO NOT sharpen tools that are cracked or bent. A damaged tool should be discarded.
- The Sharpener IS NOT to be used as a Bench Grinder to remove large amounts of material. The grinding wheel rotates much slower than a Bench Grinder. The grinding wheel uses a much finer grit grinding wheel than a Bench Grinder’s grinding wheel.
OPERATING THE SHARPENER
The Sharpener is designed for sharpening knives, scissors, flat chisels, and more.
ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION!
Hot sparks may be produced during sharpening operations.
- The electrical power switch must be in the OFF position.
- The power cord must be unplugged from the electrical receptacle.
- Place the Sharpener on flat, firm, and water-resistant surface.
- Loosen the two lock knobs that hold the front tool rest until the tool rest can be moved away from the stone. The lock knobs may be repositioned by pulling the knob out slightly. This permits the knob to be rotated for additional loosening or tightening.
- Partially fill a measuring cup with tap water. Proceed to slowly pour approximately 3-6 ounces of water over the stone as shown in Fig. C.
Do not have the Sharpener operating while pouring in the water. The rotating grinding wheel will cause water to be splashed possibly onto the electrical switch.
- Plug in the power cord and turn ON the Sharpener. Let the tool run for one minute. This will let the grinding wheel absorb some of the water and provide a cool grinding surface.
- After one minute, turn OFF the Sharpener and unplug the power cord from the electrical receptacle. Proceed to fill the water trough until water is almost about to spill out of the drainage opening in the rear of the Sharpener.
- The Water Trough will need to be refilled occasionally during extended sharpening operations.
- Return the front tool rest back into position.
- Adjust both the front and rear tool rests until they are approximately 1/8” from the grinding wheel. Firmly tighten all four of the lock knobs.
- Carefully inspect the item to be sharpened. Look for any cracks or bends.
- If the item to be sharpened is in good condition, then proceed to lay the item flat on either of the tool rests as shown in **Fig. D.
Loosen the lock knobs and adjust the tool rest until the original bevel
angle of the item to be sharpened is matched. Maintain a 1/8” distance from
the grinding wheel after the tool rest has been adjusted to the proper angle.
Firmly tighten the lock knobs.
NOTE: To sharpen scissors, hold as shown in Fig. E.
** You must sharpen the bevel side of each scissors blade. DO NOT attempt to
sharpen the flat side of the blade. This will ruin the scissors.
- Practice a few times while the Sharpener is OFF, slowly pulling the tool across the grinding wheel while keeping the tool flat on the tool rest. ALWAYS pull the item to be sharpened across the wheel from the angle to the tip of the blade. DO NOT ever push the item across the grinding wheel.
- Plug the power cord into the electrical receptacle and turn ON the Sharpener. Ordinarily, cutting edges are sharpened with the grinding wheel turning toward the blade. However, if you find it more comfortable, you may sharpen with the wheel turning away from the blade.
- Proceed to lay the item to be sharpened flat onto the tool rest and hold onto it firmly with both hands. Slowly and lightly pull the item across the rotating grinding wheel. Inspect the item after a few passes to check the progress. The cutting edge should have a shiny appearance the entire length of the cutting surface. If the surface has dark and shiny spots, the angle of the tool rest is not properly adjusted or the user is not keeping the item flat on the tool rest. Make adjustments as necessary.
- Alternate sharpening on both sides of the tool.
- Upon completing the sharpening operations, a small burr might form on the cutting edge. Remove the burr by turning the Sharpener OFF and unplugging it from the electrical receptacle. Lightly pull the blade across the stationary grinding wheel until the small burr is removed.
- Empty out the water that was poured into the water trough earlier by tilting the Sharpener backward.
- Wipe the Sharpener off with a clean dry rag and inspect for any damage to the grinding wheel.
MAINTENANCE
Turn the power switch “OFF” and unplug the power cord from its power source prior to any maintenance.
CLEANING
With the Sharpener unplugged, rotate the abrasive wheel slowly and inspect for any damage.
CAUTION: REPLACE the abrasive wheel if there is any damage at all. FAILURE to replace a damaged wheel can cause serious injury to the operator.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS to clean the Sharpener. A clean dry rag or brush is all that is needed to remove dust and debris buildup.
Repairs to the
Sharpener should be performed by trained personnel only. Contact your nearest
Sears Service Center for authorized service. Unauthorized repairs or
replacement with non-factory parts could cause serious injury to the operator
and damage to the Sharpener.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
TO PREVENT INJURY TO YOURSELF or damage to the Sharpener, turn the switch to the “OFF” position and unplug the power cord from the electrical receptacle before making any adjustments.
