Page 16: Questions And Answers
Questions and Answers 1. Question: When I aligned the drill bit and sharpened it, why was no material removed? Answer: This happens when the bit is not protruding out of the Chuck far enough. You may have allowed the Alignment Button to knock the drill back into the Chuck when aligning the bit. - Page 17 3. Question: Why is the drill point off center? Answer: If the tip of the drill bit appears to be sharpened off center, check the following items: • You may not have done an even number of half-turns when you sharpened and one face of the bit was ground more than the other.
- Page 18 6. Question: Why are my small drill bits grinding off-center? Answer: After aligning the small bit, look into the back of the chuck and determine if the jaws are straight against the bit. If the jaws appear to be out of line, move the Chuck Knob slightly to the left just until the Jaws straighten.
- Page 19 9. Question: Why does the drill bit back up into the Chuck during the sharpening procedure? Answer: Make sure the bit is tight in the Chuck before sharpening. Your Chuck may be dirty. Follow the steps for cleaning the Chuck on page 18.
