  1. Fortuna model10A bell knife sharpener stone

    I'd back track operation instructions on replacing the grinding wheel. There has to be some kind of mechanical attachment to keep the wheel on the shaft. Shaft nut of some kind. Otherwise, you'd be reading about, "grinding wheel glue". 

     

    Maybe the top of the Arbor shown in the picture expands out. Gripping the wheel by the arbor hole. I can't see if the middle of the arbor is threaded or if it's just a hole. 

     

     

    Thanks for reply,the top part is solid and don't get expend while tight.

    This is where you have the slider (far to the right)

    This is where you want the slider (far to the left) - the further left the slider is the higher the foot lift. For moving the slider you have to loosen the wing nut or in your case the small lever on the slider.
