CAUTION: 

• 

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and 
unplugged before installing or removing the bit. 

To install the bit, place it in the chuck as far as it will go. 
Tighten the chuck by hand. Place the chuck key in each 
of the three holes and tighten clockwise. Be sure to 
tighten all three chuck holes evenly. 
To remove the bit, turn the chuck key counterclockwise 
in just one hole, then loosen the chuck by hand. 

 

OPERATION 

Drilling operation 

Drilling in wood 

When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with 
wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide 
screw makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the 
workpiece. 

Drilling in metal 

To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole, 
make an indentation with a center-punch and hammer at 
the point to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the 
indentation and start drilling. 
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The 
exceptions are iron and brass which should be drilled 
dry.
