Troubleshooting
Drill bit is binding in the wood.
Reduce the drilling speed and/or apply less pressure. Ensure the tri-flute design is clearing the chips effectively. Consider using a different bit size or type if the wood is very dense.
Drill bit is not feeding properly.
Ensure the self-feeding tip is making contact with the wood. Apply consistent pressure while drilling. If necessary, slightly increase the drilling speed.
Holes are not clean, or splintering is occurring.
Ensure the bit is sharp and in good condition. Use a slower drilling speed and more controlled pressure. Consider using a backer board when drilling through thin materials to prevent breakout.
Drill bit is not fitting the drill.
Make sure you are using a drill with a 1/4" hex chuck. If not, consider a drill bit set with a shank that fits your drill.
