4. Operation

4.1. High Speed Drill Sharpener (Refer to Fig.1)

Figure 1 illustrates the High Speed Drill Sharpener module, comprising a Clamp (1), HSS Drill bits (2), and a 'V' Guide (3). It demonstrates the 'True Point' action for precise sharpening at the correct angle, with steps 1a-1i detailing the process.

Sharpening HSS Drill Bits:

1. Slide module labelled 'High Speed Drill Sharpener' (1) onto the power unit.
2. Remove the clamp from the clamp holder and insert the drill bit (2) to be sharpened (1a). Tighten the clamp lightly to leave the drill bit still free to move.
3. Place the clamp containing the drill bit into the setting slot on the left hand top (see 3 in fig.1), using the grooves in the side to lower it in correctly (1b).
4. Move the drill bit cutting end forward, so that it lays in the V guide and touches the metal end stop (1c).
5. Turn the drill bit until the V guide fully drops over it (1c), all four drill corners should now be touching the V guide sides.
6. Ensure that the drill and holder are fully down in the setting slot. With the drill in this position, tighten the clamping ring (1d).
7. Lift up the V guide and remove the clamp holder and drill bit.
8. Transfer the clamp holder to the sharpening position, on the right hand top (1e), secure it with light finger pressure (1f).
9. Switch the power unit on.
10. Move the clamp holder from side to side, securing with light finger pressure.
11. Remove the drill bit and holder and turn it over to sharpen the other face of the drill (1g).
12. Check that the leading edge of both flutes are equally sharp (1h).
13. Switch the power unit off. Before removing the module, ensure the grinding wheel has stopped.

Figure 2 shows the drill bit clamp with two stepped surfaces: one facing upwards for drill bits Ø3.5mm to 13mm, and one facing downwards for drill bits Ø3mm to 3.5mm.

For drill bits of diameter 3mm to 3.5mm, loosen the locknut and pull the clamp out of the block and install it with the stepped surface downwards. See fig.2.

4.2. Knife and Scissor Sharpener (Refer to Fig.3)

Figure 3 presents the Knife & Scissor Sharpener module. Slot 1 is for sharpening knives (steps 2a-2c), and Slot 2 is for sharpening scissors (steps 2d-2f). Note: This module is suitable only for straight-edged knives and scissors; serrated blades should not be used.

4.3. Sharpening Knives

1. Slide module labelled "Knife Sharpener and Scissor Sharpener" onto the power unit.
2. Switch the power unit on.
3. Hold the knife handle towards you and insert the handle end of the blade into the guide slot (2a).
4. As soon as the blade touches the grinding wheel, draw it with light steady pressure across the wheel to the tip, then remove. DO NOT press too hard (2b).
5. Insert the second side of the blade into the other top guide slot (2c) and repeat step 4.2.4.
6. Repeat sharpening each side in turn until a clean sharp edge is attained.
7. Switch the power unit off. Before removing the module, ensure the grinding wheel has stopped.

4.4. Sharpening Scissors

1. Open the scissors fully.
2. Slide the first scissor blade through the front guide slot from left to right (2d), keeping the pivot of the scissors and the other blade to the right hand side.
3. Draw the blade across the grinding wheel from pivot to tip. Use a light steady pressure, DO NOT press too hard (2e).
4. Remove and turn scissors over to sharpen the second blade (2f), keep the pivot to the right hand side.
5. Repeat if necessary, until sharp, clean edges are achieved.
6. Switch the power unit off. Before removing the module, ensure that the grinding wheel has stopped.

4.5. Chisel and Plane Sharpener (Refer to Fig.4)

Figure 4 details the Chisel & Plane Sharpener module, featuring a Protective shield (1), an integral magnet (2), an adjustable grinding angle (3) from 20° to 40°, and a Small chisel guide (4). Steps 3a-3g illustrate the sharpening process for chisels and plane blades.

Sharpening Chisels & Plane Blades:

1. Slide module labelled "Chisel and Plane Sharpener" onto the power unit and ensure protective shield is in position.
2. Place the blade against the back lip of the plate (bevelled side downwards) (3a). The magnet helps hold it in place.
3. The sharpening angle must match the existing bevelled angle on the blade tip (3b).
4. To alter the angle, loosen the angle adjusting knob (3c), adjust the plate angle, then re-tighten.
5. Make sure the blade edge touches the grinding wheel, then switch the power unit on.
6. Slide the blade and plate with light, steady pressure back and forth across the grinding wheel in a continuous motion (3d). DO NOT hold the blade stationary as this causes irregular sharpening.
7. Gradually adjust the blade down the plate while sharpening (3e). DO NOT press hard, grind gradually, repeat this step.
8. Remove the blade and make sure the bevelled edge and tip are evenly sharp. If not adjust the grinding angle.
9. IMPORTANT! The sharpening angle must match the existing bevelled angle of the blade. This avoids removing too much metal unnecessarily and keeps the blades at their optimum shaving angle (3f).
10. When sharpening thin chisel blades, place the small chisel guide (4) onto the plate to act as a spacer and sharpen as before (3g).
11. Switch the power unit off. Before removing the module, ensure that the grinding wheel has stopped.

It is recommended that after grinding, the blade tip is honed on an oil stone.

5. Maintenance

Before cleaning disconnect from the mains. Keep clean and free from oil and grease, store in dry conditions.
