INSTALLING BITS
– cont’d
Finish tightening the chuck jaws by holding
the chuck collar with one hand and firmly
tightening the chuck body by rotating it in a
clockwise direction.
NOTE: Hand tighten chuck jaws. Do
NOT use pliers.
REMOVING BITS
1. Unplug the drill from its power source.
2. To open the keyless drill chuck, grasp
and hold the chuck collar with one
hand. Rotate the chuck body with the
other hand in a counter-clockwise
direction until the chuck jaws open
and release the bit.
3. Remove the drill bit.
DRILLING
When drilling in smooth hard surfaces
such as metal, 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.
The workpiece to be drilled should be
secured in a vise or with clamps to keep it
from turning as the drill bit rotates
(see Fig. 3 on Page 10).
1. Check drill bit to make sure it is firmly
locked into the drill chuck and the
forward/reverse switch is in the
forward position.
2. Hold the drill firmly with both hands
whenever possible. Use one hand to
grasp the handle and switch and the
other to grasp the body of the drill.
NOTE: Make sure the hand placed on
the body of the drill does not cover the
air vents. Covering these air vents will
reduce the motor cooling and possibly
lead to overheating of the motor.
