extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are

connected and properly used. – Use of dust collection

can reduce dust-related hazards.

Stable footing on a solid surface enables better control of

the power tool in unexpected situations.

m WARNING! When drilling, be prepared for binding at 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. Fig. 17 LED light 7. When drilling hard, smooth surfaces, use a center punch to mark the desired hole location. This will prevent the bit from slipping off-center as the hole is started. 8.
