Hints for optimum use
Drilling
Always apply a light pressure in a straight line with the
drill bit.
Just before the drill tip breaks through the other side of
the workpiece, decrease pressure on the tool.
Use a block of wood to back up workpieces that may
splinter.
Use spade bits when drilling large diameter holes in wood.
Use HSS drill bits when drilling in metal.
Use masonry bits when drilling in soft masonry.
Use a lubricant when drilling metals other than cast iron
and brass.
Make an indentation using a centre punch at the centre of
the hole to be drilled in order to improve accuracy.
Screwdriving
Always use the correct type and size of screwdriver bit.
If screws are difficult to tighten, try applying a small
amount of washing liquid or soap as a lubricant.
Always hold the tool and screwdriver bit in a straight line
with the screw.

Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool and
