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.
