greater strength (Fig. 2).
DRILLING A HOLE
WARNING! Always attach the drill’s safety strap to a secure
object to prevent injury. The drill will fall if the magnetic
mounting system experiences a power loss.
Clamp a metal steel plate to the work surface if drilling a non-
metallic material. Place the magnetic base on the steel plate.
1. Plug the power cord (J) into a power outlet.
2. Place the drill’s magnetic base (F) against the metal
workpiece’s surface.
3. Press the MAGNET button on the panel assembly (K) to
activate the magnetic base. Pull on the drill to ensure it is
fixed in place.
4. Secure the drill to the workpiece with a safety strap to
prevent it from falling if the magnetic base (G) loses power.
4.1 Pass the safety strap between the bearing bracket
spacer (#13) and housing assembly (#18). Wrap the
strap around the workpiece with little slack to prevent the
drill from falling and striking the user.
