• Use sharp drill bits only.

 

 

 

 

• Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.

• Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.

• Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the Safety Instructions.

 

• Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole is started enough to keep the

drill bit from slipping out of it.

 

• Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep the bit biting

but not so much as to stall the motor or deflect the bit.

 

• Hold the drill firmly with two hands to control its twisting action.

 

• DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF A STALLED DRILL OFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPT TO START IT. DAMAGE TO THE DRILL CAN RESULT.

• Minimize stalling on breakthrough by reducing pressure and slowly drilling through the last part of the hole.

• Keep the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled hole. This will help reduce jamming.

• Make sure switch turns drill on and off.
