sharpening the curve

[Kylar1]

Im still really new to this and Im a little confused when it comes to sharpeing the curved portion of a knife.  Ive seen videos where the person rotates the jig parallel with the support when they get to the curve , and and ive also heard to lift the end of the knife upward and out.  Clarification?

Lifting the handle is the correct method.

If you pull back you get a wide bevel.
