Drilling
Before starting to drill, perform a few simple checks.
1. Depress and release the variable
speed trigger to ensure it is not
locked on.
2. Check the forward/reverse lever
is on the desired setting.
3. Secure the material to be drilled in a vice or clamp to stop it turning
whilst drilling.
4. Hold the drill firmly and place the
bit at the point to be drilled.
5. Depress the variable speed trigger to start
the drill.
6. Move the drill bit into the workpiece.
Note:
Do not force the drill or apply side pressure to elongate the hole.
Let the drill do all the work.
Drilling To A Preset Depth
A simple way of achieving a hole at a desired depth is to use masking tape.
1. Measure along the drill bit to the desired
depth.
2. Wrap a small piece of masking tape
tightly around the drill bit.
3. Drill into the material until the
surface reaches the start of the
tape.
Torque Settings
Torque settings can alter the depth to which you can drill or drive into a
surface. To determine the torque setting required to drive a screw perfectly
flush to the work surface, follow the below steps.
1. Set the torque collar to the
lowest setting and tighten the
first screw.
2. If the clutch ratchets and makes a clicking
sound before screw is flush, increase the
collar setting and continue tightening.
3. Repeat until you reach the
correct setting/screw depth. Use
this setting for the remaining
screws.
Note:
When drilling hard, smooth surfaces, use a centre punch to mark
the desired hole location. This measure will prevent the drill bit from
slipping off centre as you start the hole.
Note:
When drilling metals, use light oil on the drill bit to keep it from
overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit and increase drilling
action.
