Figure 1 — Typical circular knives, 3, 3-1/2, 4 and 5"

APPLICATIONS

Model CKG honing machine is used to

place the best possible edge on circular 5
1
knives used on Urschel machines (Figure
1). The machine will sharpen 3", 3-1/2", 4"
3
and 5" diameter knives, with plain 2
(non-serrated), serrated and scalloped
edges. Knives beveled on both sides
(double bevel) and heavy duty knives can
also be sharpened.

NOTE: Some circular knives manufac- 4

tured by Urschel Laboratories cannot be
sharpened with the Model CKG honer. If
the knife you wish to sharpen is not listed
in this manual, contact the factory.

 OPERATION
General Information

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

The knife to be sharpened is clamped in

a hub and rotated by a motor (Figure 2, 4
page 4). The rotating knife causes a circu- 3
lar hone to revolve against one side of the
knife. As the knife is sharpened by the 16°
hone, a feather edge will form on the knife 2
1 16° 16°
edge. A hardened deburring roller runs
against the opposite side of the knife 6 16° 7
forcing the feather edge into the hone,
removing the feather edge as it is formed.
This method of sharpening removes the
least amount of material from the edge and
maximizes the life of the knife.
5
Hone assemblies on the Model CKG can
be interchanged to produce grind angles
(bevels) of approximately 16° and 30° 3
(Figure 3). Sixteen degrees is the standard 30°
grind angle for Urschel knives. A grind 1 30°
angle of 30° is used on some heavy duty 2
knives. Note that knives described as 6
heavy duty may or may not use the hone

Machine Set-Up

MACHINE SET-UP 2
1
The Model CKG must be set up correctly
before sharpening circular knives. If the
machine is already set-up, proceed to
“Knife Sharpening”, page 10.

1. Make sure the honer is unplugged

from the power source.
3

CAUTION: If the machine is not Figure 4 — (1) Switch, (2) Motor, (3) Cap Lugs
unplugged, accidental pressure on the
switch will start the motor! See Figure 4. 4 5 6
2. Check that the proper hone assembly
is installed in the correct location.
The hone assembly selected should be
based on the size and type of knife to be
sharpened (Figure 5). Refer to the knife
part number and see the chart on page
23 to select the proper hone assembly.
Refer to Figure 6 and the charts below 1 2 3
for hone assembly location. Install the Figure 5 — Hone Assemblies

3. Check that the edge roller assembly 2

contains the correct parts (Figure 7). 1
Single bevel knives: the edge roller
assembly uses the outer race of a ball
bearing to remove the feather edge from
the knife.
Double bevel knives: a deburring
wheel assembly is used. This assembly 3
consists of a ball bearing and a carbide
deburring wheel. The deburring wheel Figure 7 — Edge Roller Assembly (1) Edge Roller
has a slight taper to aid in removing the Bearing, single bevel knives, (2) Deburring Wheel,
feather edge from the knife. The wheel double bevel knives, (3) Edge Roller Arm
should be installed with the large diame-
ter toward the edge roller arm.

4. Check that the edge roller assembly

is in the correct position. The edge
roller stud (Figure 8) has four spot- 4
drilled holes. These holes are the locat-
3
ing seats for a set screw in the base.
The edge roller assembly position is 2
determined by the diameter of the knife
being sharpened. 1

NOTE: Earlier versions of the Model

CKG used an edge roller stud with three Figure 8 — Edge Roller Assembly. (1–4) Spot-
spot-drilled holes. The current version drilled Holes in Edge Roller Stud
uses a stud with four holes as shown. The Knife Diameter Locate Set Screw
hole in the number 2 position is for use in Spot-Drilled Hole:

5. To reposition the edge roller assem- 4" 3
bly, loosen the set screw in the base 5" 4
(Figure 9). The holdback spring will
cause the assembly to rotate. Move the
assembly in or out to its proper position.
A tool such as a hex wrench can be
placed in the small hole in the end of the
stud to aid in positioning. The set screw
1
must seat properly in the spot-drilled 3
hole in the edge roller stud.

6. Check the knife holder hub. This hub

is attached to the hub on the motor
shaft. The circular knife to be sharpened
should fit over and locate on the raised
diameter of the knife holder hub (Figure
10). Hub 33013 is reversible to accom- 1 2
modate 3, 4 and 5" knives. One side is
used to mount 4 and 5" knives and the
opposite side is used for 3" knives. To
reverse the hub, remove the three cap 3
screws which hold it to the motor shaft
hub. Reverse the hub and replace the Figure 10 — Knife Holder Hubs. (1) Hub 33013, 4
cap screws. Use knife holder hub 33081 and 5" knife side, (2) Hub 33013, 3" knife side,
when sharpening 3-1/2" diameter knives. (3) Hub 33081 for 3-1/2" knives

7. Check the knife clamp hub. For 4 and

5" diameter knives, the large diameter 2
of the clamp faces the knife (Figure 11).
For 3 and 3-1/2" diameter knives, the 1
small diameter of the clamp faces the
knife. To reverse the clamp hub, the end 3
4
plate must first be removed from the
base (four fasteners hold the end plate
in place). Next, remove the hex nut that
holds the clamp hub, reverse the hub, 5
and replace the nut. Before replacing
the end plate, note that the holdback
spring will cause the edge roller assem-
bly to rotate out; rotate the edge roller
assembly into position, then reattach Figure 11 — Knife clamp hub orientation for differ-

8. Check the condition of the honing

wheel. The knife contact surface should
not be worn down to the recessed area
5
(see “Maintenance”, page 12). If a new
honing wheel is being installed, it 1
should be positioned in on the hone
bracket as far as possible. To move the 2
honing wheel, loosen the machine
screw on the hone shield and push in
on the wheel (Figure 12). Retighten the
screw.

10.Check knife clamp tension. With a
knife in place, turn the knife clamp knob
clockwise until it stops. The knife clamp
should hold the knife tight enough so
that it cannot be rotated (Figure 14).

OPERATION
Knife Sharpening
KNIFE SHARPENING GUIDELINES
Generally, maximum metal removal
through sharpening should not exceed 1/32"
(0.8 mm) from the edge or 1/16" (1.6 mm)
from the diameter of the knife. Serrated
knives should not be sharpened so much
that the serrations are removed. With
repeated sharpening, the serrations become
shallower and may not pull product through
the cutting unit as effectively. Refer to the
“Sharp” manual for more information on
knife care.
New knives should not be installed beside
worn knives. Mismatched circular knives
can produce poor quality strips or cubes,
caused by slight twisting of slices as they
enter the knives. Undersized circular knives
can cause incomplete cuts, resulting in
cubes or strips which are attached to each
other. Keep all knives from a spindle in a
set, sharpening them together. Periodically
check knife width or diameter to assure all
the knives in a set are the same size.
KNIFE INSPECTION
Thoroughly clean knives to remove any
product residue prior to honing.
Inspect circular knife edges for nicks and
burrs. Use a file or hand-held hone and
carefully remove burrs and nicks.
Straighten any bent portions of the edge
prior to sharpening. Replace the knife if
large nicks or cracks are present or if the
knife is bent beyond straightening.
10
KNIFE SHARPENING

WARNING: Only qualified trained
personnel should sharpen knives.
Honers place an extremely sharp edge
on knives; handle knives with care! Do
not open the honer lid until the motor
has come to a complete stop.
Refer to Figure 15 on the next page and
proceed as follows:
1. Check that the honer is set-up
properly. See “Machine Set-up”, page
6. The honing wheel should be
immersed about 1/8" in honing oil.
2. Place a knife in the honer. The
beveled side of the knife must contact
the honing wheel. Push the knurled
knob in and turn clockwise to clamp the
knife. Note that double bevel knives
must be sharpened on both sides.
3. Close the lid. Spring tension from the
brake and edge roller assemblies will
cause slight resistance as the lid is
nearly closed. Pushing down on the lid
will actuate a switch and start the motor
(Figure 16, page 11). Hold the lid down
for two to five seconds. When sharpen-
ing with the heavy duty grind angle, hold
the lid down approximately four to eight
seconds.

4. Raise the lid slightly. When the motor

stops, lift the lid completely. Turn the
knife clamp knob counterclockwise and
pull out. Carefully remove the knife.

5. Inspect the knife. The knife edge

should be evenly sharpened and free of
a feather edge. Adjust the honing wheel
position if necessary (see “Adjust-
ments”, page 13). If a feather edge
remains on the knife, the deburring
wheel may be worn (see “Inspection and
Repair”, page 12).

Inspection and Repair

Honing Wheel: The wheel may become 2

glazed, reducing its sharpening effectiveness.
If this occurs, flip or replace the wheel. Glaz-
ing may indicate that the knife pressure
against the honing wheel is too great; adjust
the hone if necessary.
When the knife contact surface is worn
down near the recessed area, the wheel 1
should be replaced (Figure 19). The wheel
can be reversed when one side is worn Figure 19 — New honing wheel (left) and worn

Contact Surface

Edge Roller Assembly: The edge

roller assembly operates under spring ten-
1
sion and does not require adjusting. The
fastener that passes through the edge roller 2
spring should not be adjusted to compensate
for edge roller wear (Figure 20). Replace the
roller if the feather edge is not being removed
from the knife. The fastener that passes
through the edge roller spring should have
one to two threads exposed past the nut.

Edge Roller/Deburring Wheel:

Single bevel knives use the outer race of
a ball bearing as a deburring wheel. As the
wheel wears, a groove will form along the
knife path and the wheel will no longer
remove the feather edge. If the wear path is
not in the center of the wheel, the wheel can
be flipped to use an unworn surface. When
the bearing is no longer usable, the bearing
that serves as a cam roller is identical and
can be exchanged in its place.
Double bevel knives use a deburring
wheel assembly consisting of a ball bearing
and a carbide deburring wheel (see “Parts”,
page 21). If a groove is worn in the deburring
wheel, replace the entire wheel assembly.
The wheel has a slight taper; install with the
large diameter toward the edge roller arm.

Brake Arm Assembly: Inspect the
brake lining periodically. The lining should be
replaced before it is completely worn away to
avoid metal-to-metal contact between the
brake arm and hub. Remove the old brake
lining and clean the brake arm thoroughly.
Attach a new lining, smooth side against the
casting, with Loctite 380 adhesive. Hold or
clamp the lining in place until set.
Motor: Contact Urschel Laboratories if
the motor is misaligned or needs replace-

MAINTENANCE
Adjustments
ADJUSTMENTS
The Model CKG is designed so that most
components do not require adjustments. If
the knives being sharpened are the same
type and size, the only adjustment neces-
sary under normal conditions is to move
the honing wheel as it wears. The edge
roller and brake arm assemblies operate
under spring tension and do not require
adjusting.
When changing the machine set-up to
sharpen different sizes and types of
knives, the hone and edge roller assem-
blies need to be repositioned and the
honing wheel checked for correct adjust-
ment. If factory settings are maintained,
the hub on the motor shaft should not
require adjustment. The knife clamp may
require adjustment to accommodate differ-
ent knife thicknesses.
Make sure the honer is unplugged
from the power source before beginning
any adjustments.

CAUTION: If the machine is not
unplugged, accidental pressure on the
switch will start the motor! (See Figure
4, page 6.)
Honing Wheel: As the honing wheel
wears, it can be adjusted toward the knife
(Figure 21). To adjust:
1. Push in and release the honing
wheel several times to make sure that
it travels freely and that the internal
spring causes it to return.

2. Place a knife in the honer. Push the
knife clamp hub against the knife, but
DO NOT tighten.
3. Loosen the machine screw on the
hone shield. Move the shield and
honing wheel until the wheel just
touches the knife edge. Tighten the
screw.
4. Rotate the knife slowly. Push down on
the brake arm, push the knife clamp hub
against the knife and rotate. The knife
should make only very slight contact with
the honing wheel. Readjust if necessary.
When the knife clamp is fully tightened,
the knife will be pushed more firmly against
the honing wheel. Follow the above proce-
dure to insure that honing wheel contact is
not excessive (excessive contact will
quickly grind away the knife edge).
 MAINTENANCE
Adjustments

Hub (motor shaft): The hub should NOT 1 2 6

be moved to compensate for honing wheel
wear. If the hub is improperly located, it may
not be possible to adjust the honing wheel for
correct knife contact (the knife may be too
5
close or too far from the wheel). If the hub
must be adjusted, a new honing wheel should
be installed first. To adjust:

1. Loosen the machine screw on the

hone shield. Push the shield and wheel
all the way in and tighten the screw.
2. Place a new knife in the honer. Push
the knife clamp hub against the knife,
but DO NOT tighten.

Knife Clamp: The clamp should only be

adjusted if the knife can be rotated by hand
when clamped in place or if knife pressure
against the honing wheel is excessive, even
with the honing wheel adjusted all the way in. 1
The knife clamp should hold the knife
against the hub tight enough so that it 2
cannot be rotated, yet not so tight that it
drives the motor back and distorts the
base. Note that the brake arm, which

properly to test for knife rotation. To adjust:

1. The hub on the motor shaft should be
properly adjusted before adjusting the
clamp. See “Hub (motor shaft)”, page
15.
2. Slightly loosen the two lock nuts on
the knife clamp (Figure 23). If the
clamping pressure is excessive, adjust
the clamp away from the knife. If clamp-
ing pressure is inadequate, adjust the
clamp toward the knife. As clamping
pressure increases, turn the nuts only a
small amount, then place a knife in the
honer and tighten the clamp to check
for knife rotation. Correct pressure is
reached at the point where the knife
cannot be rotated. The clamp should
not be further tightened beyond this
point.
NOTE: Excessive clamping pressure may
damage the motor.
