step 3
SHARPENING
THE DRILL BIT
A
Turn the Drill Doctor® on.
ON / OFF
B
Insert the chucked drill bit into the sharpening tube, matching either white mark on the chuck with the cam post at the top of the tube. With a direct, easy pressure, turn the chuck clockwise, white mark to white mark and repeat. Remember you are grinding steel.
A small bit requires a light pressure and may only take a couple of turns to sharpen. A large bit will need greater pressure and will take additional turns or more to sharpen.
CAM POST
Make sure the chuck follows the steel cam post. Avoid putting downward pressure on the chuck. Keep the pressure even, and directed into the tube.
The correct sharpening action will naturally rock the chuck back and forth. This motion should not be prevented. A 1/4” bit will need about 6 complete rotations of the chuck, or 12-20 half rotations, to achieve a perfectly sharp point. More sharpening may be required for very dull or broken bits.
