  1. Attach to Universal Support: Insert the shaft of the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig into the universal support bar of your Tormek sharpening machine. Ensure it is securely fastened.
  2. Sisipan Alat: Longgarkan clamping screw on the jig and insert the tool (gouge, V-tool, etc.) into the jig's holder. Position the tool so that its cutting edge is aligned correctly with the jig's guides.
  3. Laraskan Unjuran: Adjust the projection of the tool from the jig. The exact projection will depend on the desired bevel angle and the specific tool being sharpened. Use the micro-adjustment knob on the jig for fine-tuning.
  4. Tetapkan Sudut: Use a Tormek Angle Master (or similar angle setting gauge) to precisely set the desired sharpening angle. This is critical for consistent results.
  5. Alat Selamat: Ketatkan clamping screw firmly to ensure the tool is held securely in place within the jig. A loose tool can lead to inconsistent sharpening or damage.

4. Arahan Operasi

The Tormek SVD-186 R Gouge Jig simplifies the process of sharpening complex tool profiles, ensuring a consistent and sharp edge every time.

  1. Initial Shaping (if needed): If the tool's profile is significantly off or damaged, begin by shaping the tool on a coarser grinding wheel. The jig will guide the tool to create the desired shape and bevel.
  2. Pergerakan Mengasah: With the sharpening machine running, gently bring the tool's edge into contact with the grinding wheel. For gouges, use a controlled side-to-side rocking motion, following the curve of the tool. The jig's design allows for smooth, controlled movement across the wheel.
  3. Tekanan Sekata: Apply light, even pressure throughout the sharpening process. Avoid excessive force, which can overheat the tool or damage the grinding wheel.
  4. Check for Burr: Continue sharpening until a small burr forms along the entire length of the cutting edge. This indicates that the two bevels have met.
  5. Honing and Stropping: Once the burr is formed, move to a finer grit wheel or a honing wheel to refine the edge and remove the burr. For the sharpest edge, finish with a leather stropping wheel and honing compound.
  6. Kebolehulangan: The jig's design ensures that once the initial setup is complete, subsequent sharpenings will reproduce the exact same profile and angle, requiring minimal material removal.
