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
Holes and Chucks, so cleaning on a consistent basis can add life
to your machine. Before any maintenance or cleaning is
performed, be sure to unplug your Drill Doctor.

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

Cleaning the Chuck
With compressed air, blow out the
Chuck from the Knob end. After 20 to
25 sharpenings, you may need to
disassemble the Chuck for cleaning:
•
Keep the Chuck upright (vertical)
and remove the Chuck Knob.
•
Do not remove the springs or Jaws.
•
Use a small brush or rag to remove
all grinding particles.
•
Reassemble with all of the Jaws in
their respective grooves. If some
Jaws do not slip into their grooves
on the inside of the Chuck, reach
through the hole in the bottom of
the Chuck Knob (or use a paper clip
or small bit) and align them.
