Colour the bevel with a marker. Turn the grindstone by hand and check where the grinding will take 
place. Adjust with the Micro Adjust until the stone touches the entire bevel from the tip to the heel.

Sharpening an existing edge angle

Setting the Edge Angle

The height of the Universal Support determines the edge angle. This can be set in two ways. 
Either you can exactly replicate the existing angle using the Marker Method or you set to a 
new angle according to your choice using the Tormek AngleMaster WM-200.

Open the clamp to the thickness of the tool and approximately 
parallel to the base. Mount the tool protruding (P) approx. 
50–75 mm (2–3"). Lock the tool by tightening the knob nearest 
to the tool only.

Tools with parallel sides must 
rest on the shoulder. For mount-
ing tools without parallel sides, 
see page 124.

Mounting the tool

Set the AngleMaster WM-200 
to the diameter of your stone.

Set the height of the Universal 
Support with the Micro Adjust.

The entire base should rest 
on the tool with the corner (a) 
on the stone.
