Useful tips for drilling
When drilling in smooth surfaces, e.g. tiles,
stick a piece of strong tape on the drilling
point before drilling to prevent the bit
slipping.
Always centre-punch the drilling point � rst
when drilling steel.
Place a piece of scrap wood under the item
when drilling thin sheet metal to avoid
deforming the sheet.
Lubricate the drilling point with oil when
drilling into metal. Use machine oil for steel
and paraffi n oil for aluminium.
To avoid splinters when drilling wood or
plastic, place a piece of scrap wood under
the item or drill from both sides.
Use a high speed drill bit when drilling
plastic.
For large holes, start with a small diameter
drill and then move up to the desired
diameter.
Cleaning and maintenance
Clean with a slightly damp cloth after use
and always keep its surfaces and vent holes
clean.
Never use corrosive or abrasive detergents,
as they may attack the plastic parts of the
machine.
