Trying out my first Tapmatic on 1/2-13 holes in 5/8" steel. First two holes the tap just drilled the holes out and cut threads in the last 1/8" of the material. I adjusted the clutch to the 1/2-13 mark and am running at 180 rpm with a new tap. What might I be doing wrong? It does not seem to grab and feed the tap like the instructions say it should.
