Drill Operation (fi g. 4)
WARNING: To reduce the risk
of serious personal injury, turn
tool off and disconnect tool from
power source before making any
adjustments or removing/installing
attachments or accessories.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of
personal injury, ALWAYS
ensure
workpiece is anchored or clamped
firmly. If drilling thin material, use a wood
“back-up” block to prevent damage to
the material.
1. Select the desired speed/torque range using
the gear shifter to match the speed and torque
to the planned operation. Set the torque
adjustment collar (e) to the drill symbol.
2. For WOOD, use twist bits, spade bits, power
auger bits or hole saws. For METAL, use high-
speed steel twist drill bits or hole saws. Use
a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The
exceptions are cast iron and brass which should
be drilled dry.
3. Always apply pressure in a straight line with the
bit. Use enough pressure to keep the drill bit
biting, but do not push hard enough to stall the
motor or deflect the bit.
4. Hold tool firmly with both hands to control the
twisting action of the drill.

it is usually because it
is being overloaded.
