Cleaning Your Drill Doctor
With the Drill Doctor unplugged, shake accumulated drill bit
grinding dust from behind the Wheel Access Cover into a dispos-
able container. Remove dust particles around the wheel with a
small, dry brush. Dispose of the container and drill bit dust in a
safe and environmentally approved manner. With a dry cloth wipe
the inside and outside of the Sharpening Port to remove any grind-
ing dust that may have accumulated. A standard 1" vacuum hose
works equally well.
Cleaning the Chuck
Unscrew the Knob from the body and clean both threads with a
soft brush or cotton swab. Re-assemble the Chuck and operate
the Knob through its
Chuck Jaws
travel to ensure it turns
freely. When the Knob is
removed, be careful not
to lose the small springs
that separate the Chuck
Jaws.
Determining if Replacing the Diamond
Grinding Wheel Is Required
You can double the life of the Diamond Sharpening Wheel by re-
versing it before you replace it. The Diamond Sharpening Wheel
supplied with the Drill Doctor is designed to give you long and
trouble free service, with an average of more than 200 sharpen-
ings for 3/32" to 1/2" drill bits.
The Sharpening Wheel may need to be changed if:
1.
Sharpened drill bits burn or turn blue no matter how fast or
slow you rotate the Chuck.
2. When touching the Sharpening Wheel (with the machine un-
plugged), the lower portion feels too smooth (nonabrasive).
3.
When sharpening the drill bit, it takes too many halfturns to
sharpen.
Contact the store or dealer where you purchased the Drill Doc-
tor, or contact Drill Doctor directly, to purchase a replacement
Sharpening Wheel.
