Installing Double Clamp Jaws

Installing your LP jaws in the empty clamp assembly.

  • Step 1- Remove standard LP jaws from your knife sharpener.
  • Step 2- To remove the empty clamp assembly from the Double Clamp Bar: Loosen the clamp lever till it comes completely off the T-stud. The clamp assembly will fall out. (Don’t lose the flat washer under the lever.)
  • Step 3- Install the LP jaws from your sharpener in the empty clamp assembly by inserting the jaws and T-stud into the base plate as you would when changing jaws in the sharpener.
  • Step 4- Place the loose clamp assembly back into the double clamp bar. The stud will be extending out of the back. From the back side, place the washer on the stud, then thread the clamp lever on to secure the assembly ibar.


Installing the Double Clamp Bar

  • Step 1- With no jaws in the sharpener, back the 3-wing knob way off as you would if you were changing jaws.
  • Step 2- Push the spring knob forward to extend the T-head bolt well out in front of the base plate.
  • Step 3- While keeping the spring knob pushed forward, slip the end of the T-bolt through the opening in the clamp bar and rotate the bar as necessary to allow the clamp bar to seat inside the base plate.
  • Step 4- Rotate the clamp bar and base plate together until the T-bolt is perpendicular to the rectangular opening in the clamp bar.
  • Step 5- Release the spring knob, then rotate the clamp bar and baseplate to engage the detents.
  • Step 6- Make sure the T- bolt end is still perpendicular to the rectangle opening in the bar, then tighten the 3-wing knob to lock the clamp bar into the sharpener.
