Note: The values indicated on the angle measurer
are only standard values. Of course, you can change
these values according to your requirements.
Grinding (Fig. 7)
Expert tip: New tools still show traces of the pro-
duction process. You can substantially increase the
lifetime of your tools if you grind them on both sides
of the cutting edge before the first application. You
simply grind the back side in the free-handed mode
on the vertical of the grinding stone, and the front side
as follows.
After you have set the angle, insert the tool mounted
in the device on the universal support, turn on the
motor, and start the grinding process. Press the tool
evenly onto the grinding stone near the cutting edge,
and move it crosswise across the stone. Please make
sure that at least half the width of the cutting edge
comes into contact with the grinding stone at any time
to avoid damages of the stone.
To achieve finer grinding results, prepare the stone
using the Stone preparer. Thereby you increase the
graining from 250 to approximately 1000. The SP
is available as an accessory from your scheppach
dealer.
Sharpening (Fig. 8)
Never sharpen against the direction of grinding! Oth-
erwise, the tool will cut into the leather!
Impregnate the leather disc using weak machine oil.
Then apply abrasive paste on the leather disc. Turn
on the device, and distribute the abrasive paste by
pressing the ground tool with circular movements on
the wheel.
These preparations are sufficient for five to ten tools.
Then, you start again with a new layer of machine
oil, followed by new abrasive paste. These measures
increase the lifetime of the leather and the quality of
your tools.
Expert tip: You can work in the free-handed mode
for the trimming itself. You achieve a more precise
result if you keep the tool in the device in the position
in which you ground the tool.
