DRILLING MASONRY

Soft materials such as brick are relatively easy to drill. Concrete however, will require much more

pressure to keep the bit from spinning. Be sure to use carbide tip bits for all masonry work.

WARNING: Before using an accessory be certain that its maximum safe operating speed is

not exceeded by the nameplate speed of the tool. Do not exceed the recommended wheel

diameter.

RUNNING NUTS AND BOLTS

Variable speed control must be used with caution for driving nuts and bolts with socket set attachments.

The technique is to start slowly, increasing speed as the nut or bolt runs down. Set the nut or bolt snugly

by slowing the drill to a stop. If this procedure is not followed, the tool will have a tendency to torque

or twist in your hands when the nut or bolt seats.

problems. Therefore, you should charge them before first use.
