Drilling masonry and concrete
• Hammer drill mode should be used for drilling into masonry and concrete
• Apply moderate pressure to the rear of the drill, in line with the drill bit
• Use masonry drill bits only. Ensure that the bit size is within the maximum capacity of
the machine (see 'Specification')
• Do not apply too much pressure. If debris blocks the drill hole, run the drill slowly and
remove the bit from the hole. Repeat until hole is cleared
WARNING: The drill bit, especially the tip, will become very hot when drilling masonry and
concrete. DO NOT touch the bit and never allow it to come into contact with combustible
materials.
WARNING: DO NOT inhale masonry dust. Wear adequate breathing protection. Dust from
masonry, concrete and similar substances is harmful and may be toxic.
Drilling wood
• Use rotary drilling mode only
• Ensure that drill bits are suitable for wood, and are within the maximum capacity of this
machine (see 'Specification')
WARNING: DO NOT inhale wood dust. Wear adequate breathing protection. Some wood
dusts may be toxic.
Drilling metal
• Ensure that drill bits are suitable for the grade of metal being drilled, and are within the
maximum capacity of the machine (see 'Specification')
• To ensure accuracy, mark the intended hole position using a hammer and centre punch
• Use rotary drill mode only
WARNING: Never switch the machine to hammer mode when drilling metal.
WARNING: The drill bit and the workpiece will become very hot when drilling metal. DO
NOT touch the bit and never allow it to come into contact with combustible materials when
hot. Always use a suitable lubricant or cutting fluid, and drill at appropriate speeds.
• Apply moderate pressure only to the drill bit, ensuring efficient cutting and prolonged
drill bit life
• Use a countersink bit to remove sharp burrs from the hole, preventing cuts and other
kinds of injury
