Starting holes
If you wish to drill a deep hole in a hard material (such as steel), we recommend that you
pre-drill the hole with a smaller drill bit.
Drilling tiles
To start the hole, switch the drill / hammer drill selector switch (3) to position A (drill).
Switch the drill / hammer drill selector switch (3) to position B (hammer drill) as soon as the
drill bit has passed through the tiles.
NEVER place hands or other body parts near the drill bit or chuck during operation. Hold
the drill by its handle only.
