3. Start by drilling slowly to keep bit from
wandering away from starting point.
Increase speed as hole is established.
4. To prevent or reduce “break out” when
bit penetrates work piece, clamp a piece
of scrap material to back of work piece.
5. Do not lock Trigger in the ON position, as
the bit can easily jam in wood and motor
must be stopped quickly.
Concrete Drilling Tips
1. Use carbide or specialty bits for
concrete drilling.
2. Rock and masonry are generally drilled
in the hammer (impact) drilling mode.
3. When drilling in walls, start with regular
drilling and, once tile is pierced, continue
with hammer mode.
NOTE: In deep bore holes, occasionally pull
the drill bit out to remove dust and chips.
