Maintenance - Milwaukee 0822-20 Operator's Manual

WARNING
High rotational force. To reduce the
risk of injury, always hold or brace
securely. Always use side handle
on tools.
Bit Binding
A high rotational force occurs when a bit
binds. If the bit binds, the tool will be forced
in the opposite direction of the bit rotation.
Bits may bind if they are misaligned or when
they are breaking through a hole. Wood
boring bits can also bind if they run into
nails or knots. Be prepared for bit binding
situations.
To reduce the chance of bit binding:
• Use sharp bits. Sharp bits are less likely
to bind when drilling.
• Use the proper bit for the job. There
are bits that are designed for specific
purposes.
• Use caution when drilling pitchy, knotty,
wet or warped material or when drilling in
material that may contain nails.
