DRILLING
See Figure 11.
Fig. 11
When drilling hard smooth surfaces use a center punch
to mark desired hole location. This will prevent the ddll
bit from slipping off center as 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 drillbit rotates.
Place mode selector in drilling mode. Hold tool firmly
and place the bit at the point to be drilled. Depress the
switch trigger to start tool.
Move the drillbit 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, drill
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 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.
If the bit jams in workpiece or if the drill stalls, release
switch trigger immediately. Remove the bit from the
workpiece and determine the reason for jamming.
