Maintenance; Protecting The Environment - DeWalt DCD980 Instruction Manual

3. Drill straight, keeping the bit at a right angle to the
work. Do not exert side pressure on the bit when drilling
as this will cause clogging of the bit flutes and a slower
drilling speed.
4. When drilling deep holes, if the hammer speed starts
to drop off, pull the bit partially out of the hole with the
tool still running to help clear debris from the hole.
NoTE: A smooth, even flow of dust from the hole indicates
proper drilling rate.
