DRILLING
When drilling into smooth, hard surfaces
such as metal, use a centre punch to mark
the desired hole location. This will prevent
the drill bit from slipping off centre as the
hole is started.
The workpiece to be drilled should be
secured in a vice or with clamps to keep it
from turning as the drill bit rotates
(Fig. 20).
1. Check the drill bit to make sure it is
firmly locked into the collet.
2. Set the torque clutch to the drilling
position.
3. Hold the cordless screwdriver firmly
with both hands whenever possible.
Use one hand to grasp the handle and
switch, and the other to grasp the
body of the cordless screwdriver.
NOTE: Make sure the hand placed on the
body of the cordless screwdriver does not
cover the air vents. Covering these air
vents will reduce motor cooling, and
possibly lead to overheating the motor.
4. While holding the cordless screwdriver
firmly, place the point of the drill bit at
the point to be drilled. Squeeze the
switch trigger to start the drill.
NOTES: Always use a higher drill speed
when drilling small holes. Use a slower drill
speed when drilling large holes.
