CENTRING THE GRINDING WHEEL
If the lengths of the right and left cutting links
turn out different on sharpening, this can be
adjusted with adjusting screw 11. When the
screw is adjusted, the length of the inner or
outer cutting links increases.
TRIAL SHARPENING
Test the various functions of the machine and study its motions.
Always stop the machine when the grinding head reaches its uppermost
position. The chain rulers are then “unlocked” and the chain is free. When
you have done a trial run with the machine and feel familiar with it, you can
put in a chain. Now test-sharpen a chain, following the instructions in the
section Sharpening cutting links. In the interest of safety, use an old chain.

Be ready to stop the machine if something goes wrong
during trial sharpening.
Check that the grinding wheel is not cracked and that
it is securely fixed to the spindle. Stop the grinding
wheel immediately if abnormal vibrations occur.
