in full contact with the work. Applying the side or edge of the brush to the work will result in wire breakage and shortened brush life.

RUNNING NUTS AND BOLTS

Variable speed control must be used with caution for driving nuts and bolts with socket set attachments. The technique is to start slowly, increasing speed as the nut or bolt runs down. Set the nut or bolt snugly by slowing the drill to a stop. If this procedure is not followed, the tool will have a tendency to torque or twist in your hands when the nut or bolt seats.

CORRECT: Wire tips doing the work.

INCORRECT: Excessive pressure can cause wire breakage.
