Answer:
Your sharpening tube may not be fully seated. Make sure the
small, black sharpening cup is sitting ush in the Sharpening
Port.
3. Question:
I sharpened the bit. Why will it not cut?
Answer:
This happens when the Heel on the bit is higher than the Cutting
Edge (negative relief ). You may have a specialty drill bit. Slow
and Fast Spiral, Helix, Turbo Flutes, and Raised Margin drill bits
are considered specialty bits. Follow the instructions in “Using
the Variable Alignment to Adjust the Chisel and Relief Angle.”
If you’re getting insufficient relief try aligning one notch towards
the (+) setting on the alignment port.
4. Question:
What can I do about flat spots between the Cutting Edge and
the Heel?
Answer:
The flat spots on a sharpened bit are the result of an incomplete
or paused half-turn of the Chuck in the Sharpening Port. To
correct, apply light, inward pressure and rotate the Chuck
smoothly while sharpening. Be sure to complete the half-turns.
5. Question:
Why is the drill point o center?
Answer:
• Make sure there are no particles between the Chuck Jaws
and the drill bit that could hold it o center. Check the drill
to ensure it is straight and free of burrs.
• Your drill bit may be bent.
