I also notice in the Tormek promotional video entitled 'Tormek T-4 sharpening system: Getting Started with Alan Holtham' (youtube) that @ 1.09 mins the grinding stone is rotating in a clockwise direction but @ 3:26 mins the rotation is anti-clockwise??

I notice in further videos viewed that anti clockwise sharpening of both knives & other tools seems to be acceptable. Is it the preferred  method?

The jig I am using here (pic) is supposed to be the SE-77 & is marked as such but it is different. It has only one adjustment wheel whereas the newer 77(?) jig has adjustment knobs either side of the blade position.

Nevertheless, I have set the rig up in the same way as the newer version is shown online but the grinding wheel is rotating towards the the bevel and that is clearly not what the design intends.

I don't see any alternative fitment method for the total setup to overcome the rotation problem. Any help would be appreciated.
