DRILLING METAL

Use an even pressure, hard enough to keep the drill biting, but not so hard that the bit spins in the hole. Spinning the bit will dull it quickly. Soft metals like copper, cast iron, brass or aluminum will take less pressure than harder materials like steel.

When drilling harder metals, use lubricating oil on the tip of the bit.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Unplug the drill before performing maintenance or cleaning.

Never immerse tool in liquid. Never let any liquid inside tool housing.

Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use solvents or harsh detergents.

Check brushes periodically. Worn brushes should be replaced by qualified serv- ice personnel.

Keep air vents clean and free from debris. Blocked air vents can lead to over- heating.

ACCESSORIES

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.

Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets.

If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry the amount of current necessary for your power tool. If not, your tool may experi- ence a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord (see table below).
