Drilling in metals
Driving screws
INSTALLING HEAD
See Figure 1.
Remove the battery pack from the power handle.
Place the head on the power handle and push until the latches click
into position. Pull on the head to make sure it is securely installed
before proceeding.
NOTE: The head can be installed at 90° angles to best suit your
application needs.
KEYLESS CHUCK
See Figure 2.
The drill head has a keyless chuck to tighten or release drill bits in the
chuck jaws. The arrows on the chuck indicate which direction to rotate
the chuck body in order to
LOCK (tighten) or UNLOCK (release) the
drill bit.
WARNING:
Do not hold the chuck body with one hand and use the power
of the tool to tighten the chuck jaws on the drill bit. The chuck
body could slip in your hand, or your hand could slip and
come in contact with the rotating drill bit. This could cause
an accident resulting in serious personal injury.
Fig. 1
INSTALLING BITS
See Figures 2 - 3.
Remove the battery pack from the tool.
Open or close the chuck jaws to a point where the opening is slightly
larger than the bit size you intend to use. Also, raise the front of the
drill slightly to keep the bit from falling out of the chuck jaws.
Insert the drill bit.
WARNING:
Make sure to insert the drill bit straight into the chuck jaws.
Do not insert the drill bit into the chuck jaws at an angle then
tighten, as shown in figure 3. This could cause the drill bit to
be thrown from the drill, resulting in possible serious personal
injury or damage to the chuck.
Tighten the chuck jaws securely on the bit.
NOTE: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the arrow marked
LOCK to close the chuck jaws. Do not use a wrench to tighten or
loosen the chuck jaws.
REMOVING BITS
See Figure 2.
Remove the battery pack from the tool.
Open the chuck jaws.
NOTE: Rotate the chuck body in the direction of the arrow marked
UNLOCK to open the chuck jaws. Do not use a wrench to tighten
or loosen the chuck jaws.
Remove the drill bit.
DRILLING
See Figure 4.
Check the direction of rotation selector for the correct setting (forward
or reverse).
Secure the material to be drilled in a vise or with clamps to keep it
from turning as the drill bit rotates.
Hold the drill firmly and place the bit at the point to be drilled.
Depress the switch trigger to start the drill.
Move the drill bit into the workpiece, applying only enough pressure
to keep the bit cutting. Do not force the drill or apply side pressure
to elongate a hole. Let the tool do the work.
WARNING:
Be prepared for binding at bit breakthrough. When these situ-
ations occur, drill has a tendency to grab and kick opposite
to the direction of rotation and could cause loss of control
when breaking through material. If not prepared, this loss of
control can result in possible serious injury.
When drilling hard, smooth surfaces, use a center punch to mark
the desired hole location. This will prevent the drill bit from slipping
off-center as the hole is started.
When drilling metals, use a light oil on the drill bit to keep it from
overheating. The oil will prolong the life of the bit and increase the
drilling action.
If the bit jams in the workpiece or if the drill stalls, stop the tool im-
mediately. Remove the bit from the workpiece and determine the
reason for jamming.
NOTE: This tool has an electric brake. When the switch trigger is released,
the chuck stops turning. When the brake is functioning properly, sparks
will be visible through the vent slots on the housing. This is normal and
is the action of the brake.
WOOD DRILLING
For maximum performance, use high speed steel bits for wood
drilling.
Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit from slipping off
the starting point. Increase the speed as the drill bit bites into the
material.
When drilling through holes, place a block of wood behind the work-
piece to prevent ragged or splintered edges on the back side of the
hole.

METAL DRILLING
For maximum performance, use high speed steel bits for metal or steel
drilling.
Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent the bit from slipping off
the starting point.
Maintain a speed and pressure which allows cutting without over-
heating the bit. Applying too much pressure will:
• Overheat the drill;
• Wear the bearings;
• Bend or burn bits; and
• Produce off-center or irregular-shaped holes.
When drilling large holes in metal, start with a small bit, then finish
with a larger bit. Also, lubricate the bit with oil to improve drilling
action and increase bit life.
