3. Иштөө нускамалары

The Drill Doctor DD750X allows you to sharpen various drill bit types and sizes, from 3/32" to 3/4".

3.1 Determining Drill Bit Angle

To determine the angle of your drill bit, you can use two hex nuts. Place the drill bit between the two nuts, aligning the cutting edge with the inner edges of the nuts. If the bit's angle closely matches the angle formed by the two nuts, it is likely a 118-degree bit (common standard). If the bit's angle is sharper and does not align perfectly, it may be a 135-degree bit (often used for harder materials). The DD750X can sharpen bits to angles between 115 and 140 degrees.

  2. Place the chuck with the bit into the Alignment Port. Align the bit's cutting edge with the designated notch.
  3. Tighten the chuck to secure the bit.
  4. Transfer the chuck and bit to the Dual Cam Sharpening Port.
  5. Turn on the sharpener. Gently rotate the chuck back and forth while applying light pressure until the grinding sound becomes consistent and then fades, indicating the bit is sharpened.
