LOADING A SKATE
*For Goalie Skates, Youth Skates, and Sharpening New Steel, see the
end of this section.
1. Open the Skate Clamp by pressing and holding down the Clamp
Lever. With the skate toe facing left and the laces tucked into the
skate, set the skate into the Skate Clamp slot letting the plastic
blade holder rest on top of the clamps. Center the skate blade in the
Skate Clamps. Release the Clamp Lever.
2. With the skate clamped, move each Protective Slot Cover (A) in
towards the skate until they touch the blade holder and the Safety
Lights (B) extinguish.
ADJUSTING THE GRINDING
RING HEIGHT
For every skate sharpened, we must adjust the grinding ring’s
height. We’ll first introduce a few new concepts and then move
into the actual adjustment. As a reminder, this adjustment will be
performed for every new pair of skates sharpened.
We want to first define an intersection zone where the vertical
face of the blade "B" meets the nearly horizontal face of the
blade "C". This zone can be a curved section of blade like that
shown in this figure or in some cases can be a point where
surfaces "B" and "C" meet.
When the intersection zone is a curved surface the grinding ring
can safely initially contact the blade anywhere in this region. We
typically recommend contacting in this zone at a 45 degree angle
(see Step X or Figure Y for more details). When the intersection
zone is a point, the first contact between the grinding ring and
the blade should be just below this point.
OPERATION
A
B
C
B B
A
To check the Grinding Ring Height, we will enter Move Mode and
bring the Griding Ring left until we are about 1/4” from the blade (A).
This will allow us to see approximately where the first contact point
between ring and steel would be.
Below is an example of an intersection point (A) on a brand new
blade. We want our first contact point to be just below intersection
point (A). Point (B) is too high and point (C) is too low. For new
blades, we recommend starting at a height setting of 4 and moving
up until you hit the intersection point.
Below is an example of an intersection point (A) on a worn down
blade. We want our first contact point to be just below intersection
point (A). Point (C) is too low. For worn down blades, try starting with
a setting of 6 and moving up to hit your desired contact point.
1. Press the m Move Button on the keypad. This will set the Grinding Ring
into Move Mode and allow you to control its movement.
2. Using the l Left and r Right buttons on the keypad, move the
carriage to the left until it almost touches the heel of the skate blade.
4. Open the Glass Door. Using the red h Height Adjustment Knob, turn
left or right until the Grinding Ring is at a desired height. The knob is
labeled 1-8, with 8 being the highest setting for the Grinding Ring and 1
being the lowest setting.
5. Close the Glass Door. Once the Glass Door has been closed, using the
l Left and r Right Buttons, touch the Grinding Ring to the skate blade.
Inspect it’s contact point and be sure its in its desired position.
6. Press the m Move Button again to send the Grinding Ring back to its
home position.

UNLOADING SKATE
1. Move both Protective Slot Covers away from the skate. The safety light
on each cover will illuminate.
2. To open the Skate Clamp, press down the Clamp Lever. Remove the
skate from the Skate Clamp and release the Clamp Lever.
SELECTING CYCLE AMOUNT
When the sharpener moves the Grinding Ring out and back over the skate
blade once it is called a cycle.
Your Sparx™ Sharpener comes set to a standard four cycles with all
standard Radius Ring™ and FIRE Ring™ grinding rings automatically. We
recommend trying four cycles to start and moving higher or lower as
needed. Typically, we have found that four cycles will handle normal wear
and tear (and even small nicks) from one-five hours of skating in-between
sharpenings.
If choosing to adjust the cycle amount, use the l Left and r Right
buttons on the keypad to adjust the number of passes desired. The
number of passes selected will be illuminated on the Cycle Counter Bar
(A).
SHARPENING SKATES
Once you have loaded the skate properly, closed the safety guards, and
adjust the height of the Grinding Ring, you are ready to sharpen.
To cancel the cycles at any point during the sharpening, press the n
Cancel button once. This will send the Carriage back to its home position
at the end of its current pass.
1. Press the Play Button. Once the p Play button has been pressed, it will
change from white to blue and the sharpening process will begin.
Upon pressing play, the air fIlter fan and grinding motor will turn on. The
Cycle Counter will flash with the current cycle number until that pass (out
and in) is competed.
The sharpener will continue to run until all cycles have been performed.
At the completion of the final cycle, the end of sharpening is marked
by a 'cycle complete' tone and the case LEDs will turn green. The fan
will continue to run for an additional 30 seconds after the final cycle
completes.
ADDITIONAL CYCLES
If additional cycles are required, you can re-set the cycle count and press
the p Play button again.

LOADING YOUTH SKATES
Before loading a youth skate of size 12 and below, Youth Skate Adapters
must be installed onto each Protective Slot Cover. On the adapter, locate
the Anchor Tab (A) on the top of the adapter and then the lower Anchor
Tab (B) on the bottom.
Below is a cross-sectioned Protective Slot Cover. Locate the recessed slot
(C) and the Tab Cut Out (D) on the Protective Slot Cover Switch.
1. Press the top Anchor Tab (A in figure above) into the recessed slot (C).
Once in, press down firmly on the top of the Youth Skate Adapter until
the bottom Anchor Tab clicks in place.
Below is an installed Youth Skate Adapter.
LOADING GOALIE SKATES
Before loading a goalie skate, you must first install the Goalie Risers onto
the Skate Clamp (one Goalie Riser on each side of the Skate Clamp). To
do this, locate the Anchor Slots on the Skate Clamp and align the Anchor
Pins to the slots. Once aligned, press down firmly until you feel Goalie
Risers snap into place.
Below is an example of an intersection point (A) on a goalie skate blade.
We want our first contact point to be just below intersection point (A).
Point (B) is too high and point (C) is too low.
EDGE DEBURRING WITH THE
SPARX HONING STONE
1. Press the Sparx™ Honing Stone (B) against the top side (closer to the
plastic blade holder) of the skate blade (A). Do not to put pressure on the
bottom of the stone closest to the blade edge. With light pressure, press
down on the lower side of the stone (C) and slowly run the stone back and
forth the length of the blade for four full passes.
2. Turn the skate over and repeat Step 1.
EDGE DEBURRING WITH THE
SPARX LEATHER STROP
1. Hold the skate, upside-down in one hand.
2. Press the Sparx Leather Strop against the edge of the blade at a 45
degree angle. Slowly run the strop up and down the length of the blade
for four full passes on each side of the edge.
2. Turn the skate over and repeat Step 1.
