grasp the handle and trigger switch and the other to grasp the body of the
drill.
NOTE: Make sure that the hand placed on the body of the drill does not cover
the air vents. Covering the air vents will reduce motor cooling and possibly lead
to motor overheating.
4. Holding the drill firmly, place the point of the drill bit at the point to be drilled.
Squeeze the trigger to start the drill.
5. Move the drill bit into the workpiece, applying only enough pressure to keep
the bit cutting. Let your drill and the drill bit do the work. Do not force the drill
bit or apply sideways pressure which will elongate the hole.
,_ WARNING: Be prepared for drill bit binding or breakthrough. When these
situations occur, the drill bit tends to grab the workpiece and kick the drill in the
opposite direction of the drill bit rotation. If you are not prepared, the resulting
loss of control when binding or breaking through the material could result in
possibly serious injury.
When drilling metals, use light oil on the drill bit to keep it from overheating. The
oil will prolong the life of the drill bit and enhance drill bit cutting action. If the
drill bit jams in the workpiece or if the drill stalls, immediately release the trigger
switch. Remove the drill bit from the workpiece and determine the cause of the
jamming.
,_ WARNING: Always disconnect your drill from the power source when
replacing drill bits, tools, cleaning or when not in use. Disconnecting the drill will
prevent accidental starting that could cause serious personal injury.
