Drilling in metal
To prevent the drill bit
from slipping when starting a
hole, make an indentation with a center-punch and
hammer at the point to
be drilled. Place the point
of the drill bit in
the indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when
drilling metals. The exceptions are
iron and brass which should
be drilled dry.
CAUTION: Pressing excessively on the tool
will not speed up the drilling. In fact, this excessive
pressure will only serve to
damage the tip of
your drill bit,
decrease the tool
performance and shorten
the service life of the tool.
CAUTION: Hold the tool firmly and exert care
when the drill bit begins to break through the
workpiece. There is a tremendous force exerted on
the tool/drill bit at the
time of hole break
through.
CAUTION: A stuck drill bit can be removed
simply by setting the reversing switch to reverse
rotation in order to back out. However, the tool
may back out abruptly if you do not hold it firmly.
CAUTION: Always secure workpieces in a vise
or similar hold-down device.
CAUTION: If the tool is operated continuously
until the battery cartridge has discharged, allow
the tool to rest for 15 minutes before proceeding
with a fresh battery.

excessive force, such as
tightening bolt or
removing rusted screws.
Using holster
Optional accessory
CAUTION: When using the holster, remove a
driver bit/drill bit from the tool.
CAUTION: Turn off the tool and wait until it
comes to a complete stop before placing it in the
holster. Be sure to close the holster securely with
the holster button so that it holds the tool firmly.
