INSTALLING DRILL BITS
– cont’d
WARNING:
Do not insert drill bit
into chuck and tighten as shown in
Fig. 8. Drill bit MUST be properly
inserted with all three chuck jaws
holding the bit centred in the chuck.
Failure to properly insert drill bit could
cause the drill bit to be thrown from the
chuck resulting in possible serious
injury or damage to the chuck.
REMOVING BITS
1. To open the keyless drill chuck, grasp
and hold the chuck collar with one
hand. Rotate the chuck body with the
other hand in a counter-clockwise
direction until the chuck jaws open and
release the bit.
2. Remove the drill bit.
DRILLING
When drilling into smooth, hard surfaces
such as metal, use a centre punch to mark
the desired hole location. This will prevent
the drill bit from slipping off centre as the
hole is started.
The workpiece to be drilled should be
secured in a vise or with clamps to keep it
from turning as the drill bit rotates (Fig. 9).
