_lb WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or
safety glasses with side shields when operating
tools. Failure to do so could result in objects
being thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible
sedous injury.
DRILLING
See Figure 9.
Move the drill bit into the workpiece applying only
enough pressure to keep the bit cutting. Do not force
or apply side pressure to elongate a hole.
WARNING:
Be prepared for binding or bit
breakthrough. When these situations occur, ddll
has a tendency to grab and kick opposite to the
direction of rotation and could cause loss of
control when breaking through material. If not
prepared, this loss of control can result in
possible sedous injury.
When drilling metals, use a light oil on the ddll bit to
keep it from overheating. The oil will prolong the life of
the bit and increase the drilling action.
If the bit jams in workpiece or if the ddll stalls, release
switch tdgger immediately. Remove the bit from the
workpioce and determine the reason for jamming.
LEVEL
DRILLING
See Fugure 10.
A convenient feature provided with your drill is a level.
It is recessed in the motor housing on top of your ddll.
It can be used to keep drill bit level during ddlling
operations.
Fig. 9
When ddlling hard smooth surfaces use a center
punch to mark desired hole location. This wilt prevent
the drill bit from slipping off center as the hole is
started. However, the low speed feature allows
starting holes without center punching if desired. To
accomplish this, simply operate your ddll at a low
speed until the hole is started.
The material to be drilled should be secured in a vise
or with clamps to keep it from turning as the drill bit
rotates.
. Ho=ld tool firmly and place the bit at the point to be
ddlled. Depress the switch trigger to start tool.
