OPERATION
Locate center of new hole by using a center punch. Place drill bit tip in
punch mark. Hold drill square with work and start motor. Apply steady,
even pressure. Do not force. Too much pressure can cause bit to break
or overheat. Too little pressure will keep bit from cutting and cause it
to overheat. Reduce pressure just before bit cuts through the work.
When bit has penetrated work and is spinning freely, take it from the
work while the motor is running, then turn off drill. If the drill jams
in the work, release throttle immediately. Disconnect the drill before
removing bit and determining cause of trouble. Do not attempt to free
the bit by starting and stopping the motor.
