OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

When drilling wood: Place the bit at the point to be drilled. If you are drilling a hard, smooth surface, use a punch to mark the drill location. Set the Forward/ Reverse Lever to forward (right). Grasp the handle firmly and slowly squeeze the Trigger (4). Never force the tool. Only apply light pressure when drilling. To stop drilling, release the Trigger. Note: The further you pull back on the Trigger (4), the faster the bit will rotate. Maximum drilling depth capacity for wood is 1 inch.

Metal Drilling: Always wear work gloves when handling sheet metal.

Always clamp sheet metal. Use a punch to mark the position of the hole. When used, light machine oil wil prolong the life of the bit and increase drilling action. With steel, use oil as a lubricant; aluminum, use turpentine or paraffin; brass, cop- per and cast iron, use no lubricant. Do not force the tool. Start slowly and let the weight of the tool do the job. Apply only light pressure for horizontal drilling.

Maximum drilling depth capacity for metal is 3/8 of an inch.
