Troubleshooting

Bit does not countersink properly

Ensure the bit is securely mounted on the brad point drill bit. Check that the brad point drill bit is of appropriate size for the intended hole and that the countersink bit is not dull. Verify you are using the correct material and drilling speed.

Countersink hole is not centered

Confirm the brad point drill bit is accurately centered in the material before drilling. Ensure the drill is held perpendicular to the surface.

Difficulty mounting the countersink bit

Check that the brad point drill bit has a compatible shank diameter. Ensure the grub screw is clean and free of debris. Use the correct size hexagon pin key.

Excessive vibration during use

Verify that both the drill bit and the countersink bit are securely fastened. Ensure the drill is operating at an appropriate speed for the material and bit size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Ensure the drill bit is securely fastened within the chuck of your drill stand or drill driver. The countersink bit itself slides onto the shank of the drill bit and is typically secured via a grub screw using the provided hexagon pin key.
