Troubleshooting
Bit not engaging or pulling through material
Ensure the drill is set to the correct rotation direction (forward). Check that the wood is not excessively dense or that there are no foreign objects obstructing the bit. Increase drill speed slightly if appropriate for the material.
Hole is not perfectly round or clean
The cutting edges may be dull. Clean the bit thoroughly. For softer woods, ensure the drill is not set to too high a speed. In hardwoods, a slightly slower speed might yield cleaner results. Check for excessive wobble, which could indicate a loose chuck or bent bit.
Bit slips in the drill chuck
Ensure the 6.35mm hex shank is clean and free of debris. Tighten the drill chuck as securely as possible. If the shank is damaged, the bit may need replacement.
