Fig.7
When drilling into smooth, hard

center punch to mark the desired
hole location. This will prevent the
drill bit from slipping off center as the
hole is started.
The workpiece to be drilled should

2. Hold the drill firmly with both
hands whenever possible. Use one
hand to grasp the handle and switch.
NOTE: Make sure the hand placed
on the body of the drill does not

place the point of the drill bit at the

switch trigger to start the drill.
