Assembly
The chainsaw sharpener is delivered partially assembled. One part consists of the base, on which
the chain guide is located. The other part is the bearing arm with the motor and hand-grip.
The assembly MUST be performed with the machine unplugged!
• The unit design allows either for a desk installation or a wall mounting. When installing it
on a desk, push the unit up against the edge of the desk to the stop (see Fig. 1), then
screw it to the desk using the holes in the base.
• When mounting the unit onto a wall, use the respective holes in the vertical part of the
base (here, a distance from the wall should be kept, or spacers should be used so that
access to the rear set screws is maintained).
• After the desk top installation, fit the arm in the base by inserting the pilot pin and
securing it with a hexagonal screw (see Fig. 2).
• Now, it is possible to fit a washer on the rear side screw and screw the setting wheel on
(see Fig. 3).
• Screw the supporting arm control holder on the screw in the grinding disk body.
• Fit the grinding disk enclosure on using the supplied screws and suitable wrench (See
Fig. 4).
TIP: When mounting unit on the wall, take care to mount the unit at the approximate height of
120 ~ 130cm from the floor to avoid working at eye height. Be sure to keep children away when
using this unit.
To install the grinding disks, it is necessary to unscrew the auxiliary flange (see Fig. 5).

Grinding Disk Maintenance
To avoid injuries and accidents, only grinding disks free of defects should be used.
Check the disk you are about to fit for any damages prior to assembly.
This can be done by a simple sound test: Hold the disk so that a pencil can
be put into the hole of the disk and the disk can swing freely (see image).
• Now tap the edge of the disk with another pencil carefully.
The disk should make a clear, high pitched sound!
• If the sound is dull, then the disk is defective and should not be used.
A dull sound indicates damage by cracks.
• Do not fit the disk onto the hub by force.
• The central bore diameter should never be changed.
• Use only disks supplied by Kogan.com.
• The grinding disks should not be used if they have a diameter
smaller than 100mm. Disks that have been grinded below this
diameter should be replaced.
• Any adjusting works to the disk should not be done unless the unit
is switched off AND unplugged from the power supply.
Grinding Disk Assembly
After you have removed the
ancillary flange, you can insert
the grinding disk into the body
from below. See that the
ancillary flange and the disk
are against each other
(see Fig. 7).
Do not over-tighten the
screws, as this can damage the
disk.
The grinding disk on the hug torque is 7Nm. Where practical, use a torque spanner. Now the
lateral guard can be fitted (see Fig. 8).
Check for the correct installation of the disk: there should be no wobbling. To check, a trial run
should be performed. Stand next to the machine and ensure that there is nobody else in the
working area.
If the grinding disk is wobbling or shows otherwise incorrect movement, promptly switch the
unit off and unplug it from the power supply before working on the grinding disk.
The unit also has a zero voltage circuit breaker, which will be disabled in the event of a power
outage, avoiding the danger of having the unit start up automatically upon the power supply
being restored.

Clamping Screw Setup
Before you start grinding, the chain should be placed between both of the attachment guides.
The tooth to be sharpened should be placed against the stop. Watch out for the sharpening angle to
correspond to the guides section. The type of chain to be sharpened should be determined using the
sharpening block provided or by viewing the table on page 7.
There you can also find out about cutting thicknesses, angles and dimensions.
Set the guides to the chain width using the set screw (A) so that it is firmly fixed in the clamping screw by
the clamping lever control (B).
Set the feed by set screw (E).
On severely worn chains, the lateral position of the chain guide should be secured with a set screw (D).
Set the top plate angle by means of the set screw, which can also be checked on the scale (F). The vice
angle should be set up by the set screw (G).
Top Plate Angle Vice Angle
Grinding
Now with the clamping screw adjusted and the vice angle set (Note: RH
and LH teeth need to be differentiated), set the top plate angle, then lead
the grinding disk down to the tooth using the handle. Ensure your hands
are clear of the grinding disk. The grind depth may be set by the set screw
(K).
With the clamping lever loosened (B), the set screw is being screwed or
unscrewed (E) until the grinding disk to sharpen will touch the tooth.
During the grinding procedure, pull the chain to the guide (L) carefully.
Note: wear gloves when performing this job!
Some types of saw-chains require that the clamping screw be tilted by 5° – 10° (cf: Table: space Tilt Angle).
Note the notches (Fig. 9).
To start sharpening the chain, turn the grinder on and gently lower the handle until it comes into contact
with the chain. Mark the first tooth you are sharpening with a chalk line or texta mark, then grind the teeth
all in one direction, then turn the clamping screw (mind the angle), then grind the teeth in the opposite
direction.
With worn chains, the lateral guide position (Fig. 10 Position M) should be set for the grinding disk to not
touch the guide. Avoid allowing the grinding disk to touch any part of the chain other than the section
being sharpened, as the chain may easily be damaged.

Grinding Depth Gauge
Determine the correct height of the depth gauge using the table below. When grinding, the
depth gauge, the vice angle (G) should always be 0.
Set the supporting strut and holder at 90°.
The grind depth may be set using set screw K.
