Assembly of Sharpener
The sharpening components of the eXact-V ® are conveniently stored within
the supporting base which acts as their carrying case (Figure 2) which is sized
to fit easily into a drawer, in your glove compartment, camping gear, or with
your fishing tackle. The bottom cover (Figure 2) of the supporting base is easily
removed by inserting a finger under the opening (2) at the end of the bottom
cover (1) and removing it as shown. Then the knife guiding assembly (3) can be
removed from the carrying case by pulling it upward carefully until it is released
from its retaining clips. Then the two sharpening rods (4) can be removed
similarly by pulling upward by their small ends (socket ends) until they release
from their retaining clips. Figure 3 shows the supporting base (2), the two
sharpening rods (4), the knife guiding mechanism (3), and the bottom cover (1)
after removal of these components.
Refer to Figure 1 which shows the fully assembled sharpener with the knife
guiding assembly (3) and the two sharpening rods (4) mounted on the
supporting base.
The knife guiding assembly (3) can be mounted on
the supporting base (2) simply by inserting the
bottom end of its post (6) into the single larger
rectangular hole near the rear of the base. Insert the
post into that hole until it is fully seated and snaps
fully into a retaining clip at the bottom of that hole.
The post will fit into that opening only if the knife
guiding frame (3) is on the front side of the post. Figure 2.
