Sharpening Drill Bits (continued)
Using the Grinding Wheel (20) to Sharpen Chisels
ALWAYS UNPLUG THE UNIT BEFORE ADDING OR REMOVING ATTACHMENTS.
1.
Slide the Working Table (27) onto the front of the unit and tighten the Knob (28) to
hold it firmly in place. See FIGURE 4.
2.
For different angles, adjust the Angle Fence (30) by loosening the Screw (31), mov-
ing the Angle Fence (30) to the desired angle, and tightening the Screw (31). See
FIGURE 5.
Note: Most chisels have a flat side that would not be sharpened.
3.
Turn on the unit. While wearing work gloves and maintaining a firm grip on the tool,
place the tool to be sharpened against the Angle Fence (30) and gently make con-
tact with the Grinding Wheel (20). Refer to FIGURE 1. Grind the Chisel until a
consistent, sharp edge is achieved. Check your progress every 10 seconds. Do not
over-grind.
Note: If necessary, by turning the Adjusting Wheel (25) clockwise, the Grinding
Wheel (20) raises. Turning counterclockwise lowers the Grinding Wheel (20).

b. If the bit you are sharpening is extremely dull to begin with, rough it into shape
on a bench grinder before using the sharpener.
6.
Repeat the process on both sides of the bit. Always turn off the unit before re-
moving bits. To sharpen the other side, twist the bit to release it from the hole, turn
it half way around, and lock it back into the Sharpener. Sharpen both sides the
same amount of time using equal pressure.
7.
Repeat the above steps as necessary to sharpen bits.
8.
When finished, turn off the unit, remove the bit, and unplug the unit.
