Those stone wheels are intended for sharpening hardened steel. If you use it to grind your bevels you'll just wear the stone away quicker and maybe wear off part of it (wear off edges or put grooves in it). In the old days stone wheels were used to grind bevels but those wheels were 4 or 5 FEET in diameter and very heavy - and they wore out over time too. I'd value your wheel as an antique and try to take better care of it ....
