To sharpen the tool, determine which angle the
tool will be sharpened at. To adjust the X-Y table,
loosen the Pivot Lock Knob and swing the table to
that angle. Tighten the Pivot Lock Knob.
Remove the
Countersink
Attachment from
the top of the
machine and
place it on the X-Y
Table. Again,
rotate the
Docking Lever
clockwise to secure the fixture. Turn the machine
ON.
Using both the X and Y axis feed knobs, carefully
position the cutter into the grinding wheel.
Once the
tool touches
the grind
wheel, begin
to rotate the
spindle in a
clockwise
direction
slowly
feeding the
cutter into the wheel. Once the desired amount is
ground off, continue rotating 1 or 2 more
revolutions to “spark out” the cutter. While still
rotating the spindle, use one of the feed axis
knobs to position the cutter safely away from the
grinding wheel. Loosen the Docking Lever and
return the Countersink Assembly to the top of the
XT-3000 to remove the cutter. The sharpening is
now complete.
