Always sharpen the router bit on
the flat side. Never touch the pro-
file otherwise you will change
the shape of the cutter. Sharpen
the bit from new with three or
four light strokes to each face.
Count the amount of strokes
on one side of the bit and then
repeat to the other to keep it
in balance. Do not wait until it
is blunt before sharpening as
this will require excessive honing.
Regular maintenance will result in
the life of the bit being prolonged.
Sharpen the carbide face which is run-
ning vertically - you do not sharpen
the top edge. Two or three light
strokes removes enough carbide
to hone the blade. Work your
way around the blade until you
reach the starting point. Sharp-
en like this about three times
and then send the blade away to
be precision ground in case you
have put a slight roll on or rounded
some of the teeth. Interim sharpen-
ing saves money & prolongs the life of
the blade.

Basic Sharpening Tips
Basic tips for sharpening hand tools with precision
quality diamond abrasives for themost effective results
every time:
• Let the diamond do the work.
• Use with a lubricant, using a diamond surface dry
results in it clogging up.
• Recommended use with Trend lapping fluid to pre-
vent the threat of clogging & rusting, do not use
water or water based fluids.
• Applying extra pressure does not result in a quicker
faster cut, in fact, soft pressure creates a “feel” for
what you are achieving when honing.
• You can achieve an edge in 3 or 4 light strokes,
diamond works up to 98% faster than traditional
stones.
