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.
Align Guides
Align one of the Sharpening
Guides on the Chuck (short
white marks) with the Split-
ting Guide on the Splitting
Port. Make sure the Align-
ment Guides insert into the
Split Point Guide Rails in the
Splitting Port.
Split the point
Press Chuck slowly and firm-
ly into the Splitting Port until
it stops. Remove the chuck,
rotate one-half turn, and
repeat.
Check the tip of the bit care-
fully to determine that both
sides of the bit are split
equally. Compare it to the
illustrations. If it does not
match, study the information
following.
