ASSEMBLY
Machine is received fully assembled with the exception of mounting the honing disc and preparation of the disc
for sharpening as follows:
STEP 1:
Place machine on sturdy table or bench.
STEP 2: WASH HONING DISC
Wash both sides of honing disc with warm water and mild dish washing detergent (suggest Dawn Dish soap,
DO NOT use detergent for automatic dishwashers).
Scrub disc with soap solution and soft bristle brush.
Rinse in warm water.
Let disc air dry only, DO NOT dry with towel as this will leave lint or fabric on disc.
STEP 3: DISC IDENTIFICATION
Disc is double sided, and stamped in center recess for identification.
“H” side (HOLLOW GROUND) is used for small animal and human hair.
“F” side (FLAT GROUND) is used for large animal blades.
STEP 4: INSTALL HONING DISC
Remove ¼” screw from drive plate and install honing disc onto machine by placing large center hole in disc
onto spindle while aligning the threaded hole in drive plate with small hole in honing disc.
Insert ¼” screw through small hole in honing disc and tighten.
Cover large center hole in disc with a piece of adhesive (duct) tape to prevent honing powder from getting onto
spindle.

CHARGING HONING DISC
STEP 1
Atomizer spray bottle comes already filled with honing oil, you must pressurize the
bottle with air. This can be done the same as filling a car tire with air or use a
bicycle tire pump. Fill to 50 – 90 pounds air pressure.
Add honing powder into supplied powder dispenser (salt shaker).
STEP 2
Before using a new or resurfaced honing disc you must first do an initial charging
of honing oil and honing powder. Machine is shipped on low speed setting please
leave it on low speed for the initial charging.
1. Spin honing disc by hand.
2. Hold atomizer 8 to 10 inches above disc.
3. Apply a fine spray of honing oil on disc by a 1-2 second burst from atomizer,
honing oil should fall on honing disc as shown below as disc is slowly
revolving.

Page 8
4. Apply honing powder evenly on disc with supplied shaker covering the disc
lightly (approximately 1-2 teaspoons).
5. Place wooden charging stick on honing disc in line with center of disc and
narrow edge of stick on honing disc. Make two revolutions around honing disc
with charging stick to evenly distribute honing powder. Apply light down
pressure on charging stick. This will fill the fine grooves on disc with powder.
6. Mount Oster comb blade size 10 or 15 on holder engraved OSTER COMB.
7. Turn on honing disc and automatic arms.
8. Lower comb blade only gently onto honing disc placing it down when blade is
centered between outer edge and inner edge (do not set blade down at inner or
outer edges of disc).
9. Let blade make 4-6 complete strokes across disc.
10. Lift blade to upright position.
11. Repeat this process FIVE more times.
12. After repeating this process, the entire surface of disc should be a uniform dull
gray in color.

HONING DISC REPLACEMENT
When a new or resurfaced honing disc is installed on machine the following
adjustments must be verified before machine can be used (this is not required if
turning disc over to use other side). This is due to variations in thickness of honing
discs.
Adjustment of arms parallel to honing disc
The cutter and comb holder arms must be set parallel to the surface of the honing
disc that is on machine (thickness of honing disc changes when resurfaced).
Mount size 10 or 15 comb blade on holder.
Mount cutter on cutter holder.
With disc turned off lower arms to surface of honing disc.
Loosen screws on side of machine this will allow you to raise or lower automatic
assembly and set arms parallel to honing disc.

Page16

CENTER HOLDERS
Raise arms to vertical position.
Mount an A-5 comb blade size 10 or 15 on Comb Holder.
Lower arm so comb blade is resting on top of honing disc.
Turn on automatic arms (switch on left) and observe if the comb blade overlaps the
inner and outer edge of honing disc the same amount at each end of its stroke.
If not, turn off automatic arms.
Remove plastic cover from screw hole on top of arm rest and loosen set screw.
Move pivot block assembly left or right on slide rod bearing housing so teeth of
cutter overlap same on inner and outer edge of disc.
Verify by turning on arm motor, replace plastic cover in screw hole cover.
Repeat above step until comb overlaps inner and outer edges of honing disc
equally.
Repeat process on cutter blade holder.
ADJUSTMENT OF HOLDERS TO CENTERLINE OF DISC
Loosen set screw collars on arms and slide holders on arms so the teeth of the
cutter and comb are in line with centerline of honing disc.
