9. Question:
Can I change a 135-degree drill bit into a 118-degree drill
bit?
Answer:
You can change the degree angle of any drill bit from 135 degrees
to 118 degrees.
The alignment and sharpening procedure will need to be
performed three or more times to remove the old angle and
produce the new angle desired.

Drill Doctor Maintenance
After sharpening 20 to 25 drill bits, the drill bit grinding dust
will accumulate in the grinding compartment. Grinding particles
will promote wear in the Alignment, Sharpening, and Splitting
Ports and Chucks, so cleaning on a consistent basis can add life
to your machine. Before any maintenance or cleaning is
performed, be sure to disconnect your Drill Doctor. ®
Removing the Wheel Access Cover
®
Disconnect the Drill Doctor. Using the narrow end of the
wrench provided (or a flat head screwdriver), insert it into the
slot of the clear Wheel Access Cover on the front of the machine
and use a twisting motion to pry the cover off.
®
Cleaning Your Drill Doctor
Disconnect the Drill Doctor. ® Shake accumulated drill bit
grinding dust from behind the Wheel Cover into a disposable
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 three Ports to remove any grinding
dust that may have accumulated. A standard 1" vacuum hose
works equally well.
