Practical tips

Do not drill into hidden electri-
cal lines or gas and water pipes.
Check the area to be worked
with a metal detector, for example, before
starting.
For metal, use only fl awless, sharpened
drills; for stone and concrete, only masonry
drills with hard metal inserts.
Always adapt the speed to the material to be
worked and the diameter of the drill. For pre-
cision working with metal and wood, place
the machine in a drill stand (accessory).
