GRINDING RING LIFE

INDICATOR BEHAVIOR

In normal operation, each part of the Grinding Ring Life Indicator corresponds to 10% of the

Grinding Ring’s life. These parts are the one circle and the nine bars to the right (10 parts

total or 100%). The circle represents the ﬁnal 10% of Grinding Ring life and each bar to the

right is an additional 10%. When a part is illuminated, that corresponding 10% life is present

on the Grinding Ring. When the part is no longer illuminated that amount of the wheel life

has been consumed.

The circle of the Grinding Ring Life Indicator can also behave in other ways to indicate

dierent operating conditions to the user. Refer to the table below for more information.

OPERATION

We recommend inserting the skate into the Skate Clamp

with the toe pointing to the right. For most skate blades, this

orientation allows for the greatest ﬂexibility in Grinding Ring

height adjustment. It is, however, acceptable to insert the

skate with the toe facing in either direction.

LOADING A SKATE

*For loading goalie skates and youth skates,

see the end of this section.

To watch the How-To video, visit sparxhockey.com/loadskate.

1 LOAD THE SKATE

Press and hold down the Clamp Lever to open the Skate Clamp.

With the skate toe pointing right 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 CLOSE THE PROTECTIVE SLOT COVERS

Move each Protective Slot Cover (A) in toward the

skate until they touch the blade holder and the Safety

Lights (B) extinguish.

OPERATION16

ADJUSTING THE GRINDING

RING HEIGHT

To watch the How-To video, visit sparxhockey.com/ringheight.

For every pair of skates sharpened, you must assess

the height of the Grinding Ring and adjust if necessary.

We will ﬁrst introduce a few new concepts, and then move into the

actual adjustment. 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 (A) like that shown in the

ﬁgure below or in some cases, it can be a point where surfaces (B)

and (C) meet.

When the intersection zone is a curved surface (A as shown above)

the Grinding Ring can safely initially contact the blade anywhere in

this region (A).

When the intersection zone is a point, which is more common with

skates that have been sharpened multiples times (A as shown above),

the ﬁrst contact between the Grinding Ring and the blade should be

just below the point.

1 INITIATE MOVE MODE

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 INSPECT THE CONTACT POINT

Use the l Left and r Right Buttons to touch the Grinding

Ring to the skate blade. Inspect its contact point and be sure it

is in the desired position. In the graphic below you will see an

example of a contact point that is too high (B) and too low (C).

A Grinding Ring contacting in the right zone is shown below as

A. If the Grinding Ring is not in a desired position, follow step 3.

If the Grinding Ring is in a desired position, skip to step 6.

If the skate blade is worn down the graphic below shows a

contact point that is too low (B) and a Grinding Ring contacting

the blade at the proper point (A).
