How to sharpen all your DRILL BITS in Minutes!
What happens here
First, take the chuck from the Drill Doctor 750X and insert a dull drill bit into its opening. Twist the chuck to loosen the jaws, insert the drill bit, and then gently tighten the chuck to hold the bit loosely. Next, insert the chuck into the 'align' port of the Drill Doctor. Rotate the chuck while pushing the bit in until the cutting edges of the drill bit align perfectly with the alignment guides inside the port. Once aligned, push the small button on the side of the chuck to lock the drill bit securely in this position. Finally, adjust the depth of the drill bit by screwing the chuck in or out until the reference mark on the chuck aligns with the white line on the alignment port, ensuring the correct amount of bit extends for sharpening.
Goal: Securely mount and align the drill bit in the chuck for optimal sharpening.
