Finishing Work - Triton TW SS10 Instrucciones De Uso Y De Seguridad

Note: A Support Arm Extension (TWSSAE) and several tool specific jigs, such as
the Long Knife Jig (TWSLKJ) are available from your Triton stockist. It is highly
recommended to always use a suitable tool specific jig when sharpening with
this device.
Honing a blade
• After sharpening, using the leather honing wheel will remove any burr and
give a smooth sharp edge to the blade
WARNING: Always hone a blade in the direction of wheel rotation. NEVER hone
against the direction of the wheel .
1. Ensure the machine is disconnected from power during set up
2. Set up the Support Arm (11) and jig as shown in Image C. Use the angle
guide to check the blade angle is correct
3. Apply a generous squeeze of Polishing Paste (15) directly to the Leather
Honing Wheel (1). Honing will distribute the compound across the wheel
4. Switch on the machine and move the blade across the face of the honing
wheel, ensuring that at least half of the width of the honing wheel is always
in contact with the blade
5. Allow the honing wheel to do the work. Do not apply excessive force to the
wheel
6. As with sharpening, move the jig back and forth along the support arm to
ensure even honing of the blade
7. DO NOT hone without polishing paste on the wheel. If honing a number of
blades, it may be necessary to apply more paste. Switch off machine and
remove blade before applying compound
Honing without the square edge jig
• If the workpiece is too large to mount in the jig, you can fit the Support Arm
(11) and rest the workpiece on the support, with the edge pointing away
from you. This will help you keep the blade steady at the angle required
• Move the blade back and forth across the wheel to ensure even polishing
across the blade
Removing engineering marks
• The manufacturing process sometimes leaves blades with engineering
marks on the surface of the cross section (or 'face') of the blade
• You can remove these by applying the damaged face of the blade to the
side face of the stone
• Move the face of the blade slowly over the face of the stone. Do not apply
excessive force, and avoid fingers coming into contact with the stone
• Carry out this procedure first, before you sharpen the blade

Finishing work

1. Disengage the drive system by loosening the Torque Adjustment Knob (10)
This will help to ensure the drive wheel retains perfect shape
2. Empty the water trough
WARNING: NEVER leave the grindstone standing in water.

Maintenance
General inspection
• Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They may vibrate loose
over time
• Inspect the supply cord of the tool, prior to each use, for damage or wear.
Repairs should be carried out by an authorised Triton service centre. This
advice also applies to extension cords used with this tool
Cleaning
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts
to wear quickly, and shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of
your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If available, use clean, dry,
compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes
Grindstone maintenance
• Do not use a grindstone that has received a blow, especially to the side of
the stone
• Replace a cracked or suspect stone immediately
• Maintain an even grinding surface. Use the Diamond Trueing Tool TWSDTT
(available separately) to restore the grinding stone's surface when it has
become uneven or shows other signs of wear
• See 'Fitting the grindstone and water trough' for guidance on fitting a stone
Note: The spindle features a reverse thread: turn clockwise to loosen, anti-
clockwise to tighten.
Replacing the leather honing wheel
If the Leather Honing Wheel (1) becomes worn or torn, it must be replaced:
1. Unscrew and set aside the Locking Knob (3)
2. Remove the worn honing wheel from the spindle, and position new wheel
in its place
3. Re-fit the Locking Knob and tighten.
Note: Tighten by hand only.
Storage
• ALWAYS empty the water trough, clean the machine and cover for storage
• NEVER store the machine with a wet or damp grinding stone. ALWAYS
ensure the stone has dried completely before covering and storing long-
term
• Store this machine carefully in a secure, warm, dry place out of the reach
of children
