Do not apply too much pressure. If debris blocks the drill hole, run
the drill slowly and remove the bit from the hole. Repeat until hole is
cleared.
WARNING: The drill bit, especially the tip, will become very hot when
drilling masonry and concrete. Do not touch the bit and never allow it to
come into contact with combustible materials.
WARNING: Do not inhale masonry dust. Wear adequate breathing
protection. Dust from masonry, concrete and similar substances is
harmful and may be toxic.
Drilling Wood
1. Select the appropriate gear using the gear switch (5).
2. Rotate the mode selector (4) to the drill position.
Make sure that drill bits are suitable for wood, and are within the
maximum capacity of this machine (see 'Technical Data').
WARNING: Do not inhale wood dust. Wear adequate breathing
protection. Some wood dusts may be toxic.
Drilling Metal
1. Select the appropriate gear using the gear switch (5)
2. Rotate the mode selector (4) to the drill position.
Ensure that drill bits are suitable for the grade of metal being drilled,
and are within the maximum capacity of the machine (see 'Technical
Data').
To ensure accuracy, mark the intended hole position using a
hammer and centre punch.
WARNING: The drill bit and the workpiece will become very hot when
drilling metal. Do not touch the bit and never allow it to come into
contact with combustible materials when hot. Always use a suitable
lubricant or cutting fluid, and drill at appropriate speeds.
Only apply moderate pressure to the drill bit, ensuring efficient
cutting and prolonged drill bit life.
Use a countersink bit to remove sharp burrs from the hole to prevent
cuts and other kinds of injury.
