Drilling Concrete

line with the drill bit
• Forefcientdrilling,itisadvisabletouseTCT(tungstencarbide)drillbits.
Ensure that drill bit size is within the maximum capacity of the drill (see
specifications)
• 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
Drilling Wood
• Userotarydrillmodeonly
• Ensurethatdrillbitsaresuitableforwood,andarewithinthemaximum
capacity of this drill (see specifications)
Drilling Metal
• Toensureaccuracy,marktheintendedholepositionusingahammer
and centre punch
• Userotarydrillmodeonly
• Ensurethatdrillbitsaresuitableforthegradeofmetalbeingdrilled,and
are within the maximum capacity of the drill (see specifications)
• Toensureefcientcutting,andprolongdrillbitlife,useasuitable
lubricant or cutting fluid
CAUTION
Applying excess pressure does not result in faster or more efficient drilling.
If the pressure applied to the drill has a noticeable effect on the speed
ofthedrillthenreducethepressure.Overloadingthedrillwillreduceits
service life.
As the drill bit penetrates the material being drilled, it may 'catch' or 'snag'.
This can cause the machine to suddenly 'kick', to prevent any possibility
of injury always hold the drill securely, use the side handle, and use sharp
drill bits.
Always ensure that material is secure. If appropriate use a vice or clamp
to hold the work, always keep two hands on the drill.
Maintenance
WARNING: Always remove the plug from the mains power supply before
carrying out any maintenance/cleaning.
Cleaning
• Keep your machine clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal
parts to wear quickly, shortening the machine’s service life
• Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth. If
available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation
holes
Brushes
• Overtimethecarbonbrushesinsidethemotormaybecomeworn.
Excessively worn brushes may cause loss of power, intermittent failure
or visible sparking
• To replace the brushes, remove the brush access plugs from both sides
of the machine. The worn brushes can then be withdrawn, and replaced
with new. Replace brush access plugs. Alternatively, have the machine
serviced at an authorised service centre
Disposal
• Do not dispose of power tools, or other waste electrical and electronic
equipment, with household waste
• Contact your local waste disposal authority for information on the correct
way to dispose of tools
