Installing the tool support for
sharpening
Loosen the front tool support clamps and insert
the tool support bar into the holes on top of the
housing. Ensure that the tool support bar points
to the left of the unit, above the sharpening
wheel. Adjust the tool support to the desired
position and tighten the clamp knobs.
Installing the tool support for honing
Loosen the rear tool support clamp knobs and
insert the tool support bar into the holes at the
rear of the housing. Ensure that the tool support
bar points to the right of the unit (when looking at
the front of the unit). It should sit behind the
honing wheel. Fully insert the tool support and
tighten the clamp knobs. While the tool support
can be adjusted, most honing will be done with
the tool support fully inserted.
Installing the tool holder
Slide the adjustable tool holder onto the long bar
of the tool support. Position the adjustable tool
holder above the sharpening wheel (if
sharpening), or to the rear of the honing wheel (if
honing). Ensure that the clamping area of the
tool holder is positioned towards the centre of
the unit.
