The Drill Doctor Sharpening Process; Aligning The Drill Bit - DRILL DOCTOR 350X Guia Del Usuario

The Drill Doctor
The sharpening process includes 2 easy procedures:
1. Aligning the bit in the Chuck.
2. Sharpening the bit.

Aligning the Drill Bit

This makes sure that the Drill Doctor creates the right
geometry. It also sets the bit so that only a small amount
of the tip is taken off during sharpening.
(See page 12-13 to align and sharpen a masonry drill bit.)

® Sharpening Process
Insert bit in Chuck.
Hold the Chuck with the
White Triangle facing up.
Insert the bit into the front of
the Chuck, leaving 1/2" of bit
sticking out the front.
Tighten Chuck slightly.
Tighten the Chuck by turning
the Chuck Knob clockwise
just to the point where the bit
is snug but can still be slid in
and out. The Chuck should
not be completely tightened
until we set the bit depth for
sharpening in the next step.
Rotate the drill bit in the
Chuck so that the Leading
Edge of the flute is against
the Alignment Finger. This
aligns the bit for accurate
sharpening.
Note: A good test to see if the
Chuck is tightened the cor-
rect amount is to make sure
it moves when you pull on it
with your fingers, but will not
fall out when you turn the
Chuck upside down.
