Split Points
Split point drill bits prevent “walking” on the material before they
begin to cut. This feature is described as self-centering. The need
to center punch is eectively eliminated.
Split point drill bits have secondary cutting lips along the chisel
edge. Up to 70% less thrust is required to drill a hole (when
compared to a non-split or conventional point.)
1. Splitting the Point
Leave bit in Chuck after
sharpening
Always align and sharpen a bit
before splitting it. To split the point,
do not remove the bit from the
Chuck after sharpening.
2. Align Guides
Remove the Grit Tube.
Line up one of the Chuck’s
Sharpening Guides (white lines)
with the Splitting Guide on the
Splitting Port.
3. Split the point
Press Chuck slowly and rmly into
the Splitting Port. Remove the
Chuck, rotate one-half turn, and
repeat.
Check the tip of the bit carefully to
determine that both sides of the
bit are split equally. Compare it to
the following illustrations. If it does
not match, study the information
below.
