GENERAL DRILLING
1.
Be sure drill bit is securely gripped in chuck. (See INSTALLING AND
REMOVING DRILL BIT).
2.
Set REVERSING SWITCH for clockwise rotation.
3.
Make sure work is held securely in vise or clamped in place prior to
starting drilling operation.
CAUTION: Loose work may spin and cause bodily injury.
4.
Locate exact center for hole to be drilled and using a center punch,
make a small dent in work.
5.
Place tip of drill bit in dent made by center punch, hold drill square with
work, and start the motor.
6.
Apply steady, even pressure to keep drill bit cutting. Too little pressure
will keep the bit from cutting and dull the edges due to excessive friction
created by sliding over the surface.
CAUTlON: Too much pressure may cause the bit to break or
overheat resulting in bodily injury or damaged drill bits.
CAUTION: BE ALERT and brace yourself against the twisting action
of the drill, should bit jam in the work.
7.
If drill stalls or becomes jammed in the hole, release trigger immediately,
remove drill bit from work and determine cause of stalling or jamming. DO
NOT SQUEEZE TRIGGER ON AND OFF IN AN ATTEMPT TO FREE A
STALLED OR JAMMED DRILL – THIS WILL DAMAGE THE MOTOR. The
direction of rotation may be reversed to help free a jammed bit. Be sure
direction of rotation is RESET before attempting to continue drilling.
