_lb WARNING: Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields when operating
tools. Failure to do so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible sedous injury.
DRILLING
See Figure 9.
Fig. 9
When ddlling hard smooth surfaces use a center punch to mark desired hole location. This wilt prevent the drill bit from slipping off center as the hole is started. However, the low speed feature allows starting holes without center punching if desired. To accomplish this, simply operate your ddll at a low speed until the hole is started.
The material to be drilled should be secured in a vise
or with clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit rotates.
. Ho=ldtool firmly and place the bit at the point to be ddlled. Depress the switch trigger to start tool.
Move the drill bit into the workpiece applying only enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force or apply side pressure to elongate a hole.
WARNING: Be prepared for binding or bit breakthrough. When these situations occur, ddll 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 sedous injury.
When drilling metals, use a light oil on the ddll bit to keep it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit and increase the drilling action.
If the bit jams in workpiece or if the ddll stalls, release switch tdgger immediately. Remove the bit from the workpioce and determine the reason for jamming.
LEVEL DRILLING
See Fugure 10.
A convenient feature provided with your drill is a level.
It is recessed in the motor housing on top of your ddll. It can be used to keep drill bit level during ddlling operations.
