Page 14: Removing Bits
Open or close chuck jaws to a point where the opening is slightly larger than the bit size you intend to use. Also, raise the front of the drill slightly to keep the bit from falling out of the chuck jaws. - Page 15 For heavy drilling. BIT STORAGE See Figure 12. When not in use, the bit provided with this drill can be placed in the storage area located on the rear of the drill. WARNING: Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields when operating tools.
- Page 16 If not prepared, this loss of control can result in possible serious injury. When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill bit to keep it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit and increase the drilling action.
