Drilling Procedure
For proper drilling instructions and to prevent pre-
mature wear, follow the procedure below.
Always use a variable speed electric drill.
Center the drill bit on the rivet hole and drill.
Maintain a slow to medium speed at all times
when drilling. The proper speed is attained when
a constant breaking chip is ejected.
NOTE: To increase bit life, use Bombardier syn-
thetic chaincase oil (P/N 413 803 300) as a cutting
oil.
CAUTION: High speed drilling will cause exces-
sive heat which may destroy the cutting edge of
the bit, therefore avoid using pneumatic drills.
