The Drill Doctor
The sharpening process includes 3 easy procedures:
1.
Align the bit in the Chuck.
2.
Sharpen the bit.
3.
Split the point (if you choose).
Be sure to complete all three of the procedures to sharpen and
split a bit and always sharpen the bit prior to splitting it.
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 46 to align and sharpen a masonry drill bit.)

Sharpening Process
®
Insert bit in Chuck and
tighten
Insert the bit into the Chuck Jaws and
close the Jaws just to the point where
the bit slides in and out. Do not over
tighten the Chuck; the bit needs to be
able to move in and out until Step 4.
Note: A good test to see if the Chuck
is tightened the correct 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.
