Drilling Operation; Drilling In Wood; Drilling In Metal; Using Holster - Makita PH05 Instruction Manual

Drilling operation

First, turn the adjusting ring so that the pointer points to
the marking. Then proceed as follows.

Drilling in wood

When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained
with wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide
screw makes drilling easier by pulling the drill bit into
the workpiece.

Drilling in metal

To prevent the drill bit from slipping when starting a
hole, make an indentation with a center-punch and
hammer at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the
drill bit in the indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The excep-
tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
CAUTION:
Pressing excessively on the tool
will not speed up the drilling. In fact, this excessive
pressure will only serve to damage the tip of your drill
bit, decrease the tool performance and shorten the
service life of the tool.
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly and exert care
when the drill bit begins to break through the
workpiece. There is a tremendous force exerted on
the tool/drill bit at the time of hole break through.
CAUTION:
A stuck drill bit can be removed
simply by setting the reversing switch to reverse
rotation in order to back out. However, the tool
may back out abruptly if you do not hold it firmly.
CAUTION:
Always secure small workpieces
in a vise or similar hold-down device.
CAUTION:
If the tool is operated continuously
until the battery cartridge has discharged, allow
the tool to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding
with a fresh battery.
Using the tool as a hand screwdriver
Switch off the tool.
Move the reversing switch lever to the neutral position.
Turn the action mode changing ring so that the arrow
points to the marking.
Turn the tool.
NOTE: This use is convenient for checking the
screwdriving.
NOTE: Do not use the tool for work requiring exces-
sive force, such as tightening bolt or removing rusted
screws.

CAUTION:
When using the holster, remove a
driver bit/drill bit from the tool.
CAUTION:
Turn off the tool and wait until it
comes to a complete stop before placing it in the
holster.
Be sure to close the holster securely with the
holster button so that it holds the tool firmly.
