6. Question:
Why is the chisel edge on my drill bit flat?
Answer:
During the alignment process the Bit Clamp Arms were
gripping the high points of the drill bit. Realign the drill
bit making sure that the Bit Clamp Arms are located in the
narrowest section of the bit.
7. Question:
Why was my drill bit sharpened improperly?
Answer:
The most common cause of improper sharpening is
improper drill bit alignment.
Key causes are:
1. Drill point not pushed all the way to the Drill Stop.
2. Chuck not pushed all the way into the Alignment Port.
3. Drill not aligned in the Bit Clamp Arms correctly.
In order to correct these problems be sure the Chuck is all
the way in the Alignment Port. The drill point must be
against the Drill Stop and the Bit Clamp Arms must be at
the narrowest part of the drill bit.
8. Question:
Why is my split point uneven?
Answer:
Page 18 shows a drill point that is undersplit and a drill
point that is correctly split. To correct an uneven point
split, insert the Chuck into the Splitting Port and split
both sides again. Push the Chuck into the Port until it
stops. Repeat until the split sides are equal and look like
the correctly split bit shown above.
