Drilling operation
Drilling inwood
When drilling in wood, best results are obtained withwood drillsequipped with
a guide
screw. The guide screw makesdrilling easier by pullingthe bitintothe workpiece.
To prevent the bit from slipping when starting
a hole, make an indentation with a
centerpunch and hammer at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the bit inthe
indentationand start drilling.
Use
a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions are iron and brass which
should be drilled dry.
Drilling inmetal
CAUTION
:
*Pressing excessively on thetool will not speed up the drilling. Infact, this excessive pres-
sure will only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease the tool performanceand
shortenthe service life of thetool.
*There
is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole breakthrough.
Holdthetool firmly and exert care whenthe bitbeginstobreak throughthe workpiece.
A stuck bitcan be removed simply by settingthe reversingswitch to reverse rotation in
order tobackout. However,the tool may backout abruptly ifyou do not hold
it firmly.
Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar hold-downdevice.
Overloadprotector
The overload protector automatically cuts out to break the circuit whenever heavy work
is prolonged. Wait 20-30 seconds before resumingoperation.
