Hints for optimum use
Drilling
Always apply a light pressure in a straight line with the
x
drill bit.
Just before the drill tip breaks through the other side of
x
the workpiece, decrease pressure on the tool.
Use a block of wood to back up workpieces that may splinter.
x
Use HSS drill bits when drilling in metal.
x
Use a lubricant when drilling metals other than cast iron
x
and brass.
Make an indentation using a centre punch at the centre of
x
the hole to be drilled in order to improve accuracy.
Screwdriving
Always use the correct type and size of screwdriver bit.
x
If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small
x
amount of washing liquid or soap as a lubricant.
Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straight line
x
with the screw.
When screwing in wood, it is recommended to drill a pilot
x
hole with a depth equal to the length of the screw.
A pilot hole guides the screw and prevents splintering or
x
distortion of the wood. For the optimum size of the pilot
hole, refer to the table below.
When screwing in hardwood, also drill a clearance hole
x
with a depth equal to half the length of the screw. For the
optimum size of the clearance hole, refer to the table below.
