DRILLING
See Figure 11.
When drilling hard smooth surfaces use a center punch to
mark desired hole location. This will prevent the drill bit from
slipping off center as the hole is started.
The material to be drilled should be secured in a vise or with
clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit rotates.
Place mode selector in drillin_mode. Hold tool firmly and
place the bit at the point to be drilled. Depress the switch
trigger to start tool.
Move the drill bit into the workpiece applying only enough
pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force or apply side
pressure to elongate a hole.
_i WARNING: Be prepared for bind_g or bit
breakthrough. When these situations occur, drill has
a tendency to grab and kick opposite to the direction
of rotation and could cause loss of control when
breaking through material. If not prepared, this loss
of control can result in possible serious injury.
When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill bit to keep
it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit
and increase the drilling action.
If the bit jams in workpiece or if the drill stalls, release
switch trigger immediately. Remove the bit from the
workpiece and determine the reason for jamming.
