9. Operation
Finding the Existing Angle of the Tool to be Sharpened
Use the angle finder as shown in Fig 9.11 to find the angle of the edge to
be sharpened. The angle shown is 25º.
Setting the Angle Setting Gauge
Loosen the diameter and pointer knobs, Fig 9.12. Slide the white scale until
the indicators align with the correct diameter of the stone. When new the
stone is 200 mm (8") in diameter. The indicator on the left points to metric
and the right points to imperial measurements. Tighten the diameter knob
then adjust the pointer to align with the desired angle to sharpen the tool at.
Sharpening a Plane Blade using the Straight Edge Jig
The straight edge jig can be used to sharpen a variety of
different tools. The plane blade here is shown as an example.
Loosen the two locking knobs, Fig 9.13, and place the plane blade into the
jig with the surface to be sharpened pointing downwards as shown in Fig
9.14.
Align the side of the blade with the registration tabs on the jig as shown in
Fig 9.13. This will ensure the edge to be sharpened is at 90º to the stone.
Re-tighten the locking knobs.
Mount the support arm in the upper position and place the jig on the
support arm, Fig 9.14.
Place the angle setting gauge on the stone as shown in Fig 9.14 then adjust
the position of the support arm until the rear face of the blade is aligned
with the flat area at the bottom of the pointer as shown.
Turn the machine on and slowly move the tool surface across the stone as
shown in Fig 9.15 until the required sharpness is achieved.
