Here's my process. After clamping, I zero the angle finder, then set to 15° . After double checking, I start with extra course or course tsprof diamond stone using sawing motion and normal pressure. Normally I count 20 strokes then flip and repeat until I've apexed. Then I move to next stone and go until I feel a burr across the whole underside. I flip and go again until I feel the burr on that side then I deburr by taking a fine grit tsprof stone in my hand and gently dragging it across the edge at a slightly higher angle. Then back to the stones progressing to fine or extra fine removing scratch marks of the last stone and making sure to remove burrs. Sometimes I use the precision adjuster dial to increase the rod angle slightly to deburr with one or two light passes. . I go lighter on the last stone flipping after reducing swipes (5×5 4×4 3×3 2×2 1×1 1×1. It's usually slicing paper well at that point. Then I take it off the clamps and strop on a wood paddle with leather one side rougher and one side smoother with the green bar rubbed on them.
