5. Operating Instructions

This sharpener is designed for sharpening metal drill bits with diameters between 3mm and 10mm.

1. Prepare the Drill Bit: Ensure the drill bit is clean and free from debris.
2. Select Sharpening Angle: Rotate the sharpening angle adjustment knob on the top of the unit to the desired setting. The markings on the knob correspond to different angles or bit types. Refer to the markings for guidance.
3. Power On: Flip the power switch to the "ON" position. The grinding wheel will begin to rotate.
4. Insert Drill Bit: Carefully insert the drill bit into the appropriate insertion port. The sharpener has guides to ensure the bit is held at the correct angle.
5. Sharpening Process: Apply gentle, consistent pressure to the drill bit against the grinding wheel. Rotate the drill bit slightly if necessary to ensure even sharpening of both cutting edges. Listen to the sound and observe the sparks to gauge the sharpening progress. Do not apply excessive pressure, as this can damage the bit or the sharpener.
6. Check Sharpness: Periodically remove the drill bit and inspect its cutting edge. Both edges should be symmetrical and sharp. Repeat the sharpening process if necessary.
7. Power Off: Once sharpening is complete, flip the power switch to the "OFF" position and unplug the unit from the power outlet.
8. Cool Down: Allow the sharpened drill bit to cool down before handling, as it may be hot.

Note: For optimal results and to prolong the life of your drill bits, sharpen them regularly before they become excessively dull.
