Drilling in Masonry

Use carbide tipped masonry bits at low speeds. Keep an even force on the drill but not so much that you crack the brittle materials. A smooth, even flow of dust indicates the proper drilling rate.

Side Handle

A side handle may be supplied with your drill. Side handles are included with these drills: DW231, DW235G, DW235-220, DW236, DW238, DW239, DW245, DW246, DW248, DW249. The side handle clamps to the front of the gear case and can be rotated 360 degrees to permit right or left hand use.

CAUTION: If a side handle is included with your drill, always use it and hold the drill with both hands.

Maintenance

Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

Self-lubricating bearings are used in the tool and periodic relubrication is not required. In the unlikely event that service is ever needed, take your tool to an authorized service location.

Accessories

Recommended accessories for use with your tool are available at extra cost from your distributor or local service center.

ACCESSORY MUST BE RATED FOR USE AT SPEED EQUAL TO OR HIGHER THAN NAMEPLATE R.P.M. OF TOOL WITH WHICH IT IS BEING USED.
