Tormek SVD-186 R Gouge Jig Instruktionsmanual

1. Introduktion og produktoversigtview

The Tormek SVD-186 R Gouge Jig is an essential accessory for achieving precise and repeatable sharp edges on various woodturning and woodworking tools. This jig is specifically designed for fingernail-shaped turning gouges, but it can also be effectively used for bent carving gouges, V-tools, and even violin making knives.

Its robust design ensures a high level of control during the sharpening process, allowing users to replicate chosen profiles with accuracy. This precision minimizes material removal during subsequent sharpenings, requiring only a light touch-up to maintain the edge.

Key features of the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig include:

• Designed for fingernail-shaped turning gouges.
• Enables quick and repeatable production of razor-sharp edges.
• Accommodates various lengths on the side bevel.
• Suitable for bent carving gouges, V-tools, and violin making knives.
• Supports a maximum blade width of 1-3/8 inches.

2. Sikkerhedsoplysninger

Always prioritize safety when operating sharpening equipment. Failure to follow safety guidelines can result in injury or damage to tools.

• Læs manualen: Always read and understand the instruction manual for both the Tormek SVD-186 R Gouge Jig and your sharpening machine before use.
• Øjenbeskyttelse: Always wear appropriate eye protection, such as safety glasses or a face shield, to protect against flying debris.
• Håndbeskyttelse: Use gloves if necessary to protect hands from sharp edges, but ensure they do not interfere with tool control.
• Stabilt arbejdsområde: Ensure your sharpening machine and jig are set up on a stable, level, and well-lit workbench.
• Værktøjets tilstand: Inspect your tools and the jig for any damage or wear before each use. Do not use damaged equipment.
• Hold dig klar: Keep hands and fingers away from the rotating grinding wheel or honing wheel during operation.
• Tag stikket ud, når det ikke er i brug: Disconnect the power to your sharpening machine when changing jigs, making adjustments, or when not in use.
• Korrekt ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation, especially when dry grinding, to avoid inhaling dust particles.

3. Opsætning

Proper setup of the Tormek SVD-186 R Gouge Jig is crucial for achieving optimal sharpening results. This jig is designed to work seamlessly with Tormek sharpening systems and compatible grinding machines.

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. Værktøjsindsættelse: Løsn 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. Juster projektion: 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. Indstil vinkel: Use a Tormek Angle Master (or similar angle setting gauge) to precisely set the desired sharpening angle. This is critical for consistent results.
5. Secure Tool: Spænd 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. Betjeningsvejledning

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. Slibningsbevægelse: 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. Jævnt tryk: 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. Gentagelighed: 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.

5. Vedligeholdelse

Proper maintenance of your Tormek SVD-186 R Gouge Jig will ensure its longevity and continued precision.

• Rensning: After each use, wipe down the jig with a clean, dry cloth to remove any grinding dust or debris. For stubborn residue, a slightly damp klud kan bruges, efterfulgt af grundig tørring.
• Smøring: Periodically apply a light machine oil to any moving parts or threaded components to ensure smooth operation and prevent corrosion.
• Opbevaring: Store the jig in a clean, dry environment, away from excessive moisture or corrosive materials.
• Inspektion: Regularly inspect the jig for any signs of wear, damage, or loose components. Tighten any loose screws and replace damaged parts if necessary.

6. Fejlfinding

If you encounter issues while using your Tormek SVD-186 R Gouge Jig, consider the following common problems and solutions:

• Inconsistent Edge:
  • Ensure the tool is securely clamped in the jig.
  • Verify that the universal support bar is firmly locked in place.
  • Check for any play in the jig's components.
  • Ensure consistent pressure and movement during sharpening.
• Tool Not Getting Sharp:
  • Confirm the correct sharpening angle is set.
  • Ensure the grinding wheel is properly dressed and not glazed.
  • Check if a burr is forming on the edge; if not, continue sharpening.
  • Consider moving to a finer grit wheel or honing process.
• Bevægelsesvanskeligheder:
  • Clean the jig and universal support bar to remove any debris.
  • Apply a small amount of lubricant to moving parts if they feel stiff.
• Damage to Tool Edge:
  • Avoid excessive pressure on the grinding wheel.
  • Ensure the tool is not overheating (especially with dry grinders).
  • Verify the grinding wheel is suitable for the tool material.
