Operating Tips
TETHER
HOOK
The purpose
of the tether
hook is to secure
the
tool
when
working
on
ladders,
scaffolding,
or elevated
heights
to prevent
the tool from hitting the ground if accidentally
dropped.
For best results, it is recommended
to use
1/4" braided
nylon
rope
or similar
material.
You will extend
the life of your
bits and do
nearer
work
if you
always
put the bit in
contact
with
the work
before
pulling
the
trigger.
During
the operation,
hold the tool
firmly
and exert
light, steady
pressure.
Too
much pressure
at low speed will stall the tool.
Too
little
pressure
will keep
the
bit from
cutting
and cause excess
friction
by sliding
over
the surface.
This can be damaging
to
both tool and bit.
DRILLING
WITH VARIABLE
SPEED
The trigger
controlled
variable
speed feature
will eliminate
the need for center
punches
in
hard materials.
The variable
speed
trigger
allows you to slowly increase
RPM. By using
a slow starting
speed,
you are able to keep
the bit from "wandering".
You can increase
the speed as the bit "bites" into the work by
squeezing
the trigger.
DRIVING
WITH VARIABLE
SPEED
Variable
speed
drills will double
as a power
screwdriver
by using a screwdriver
bit in the
drill mode.
The technique
is to start slowly,
increasing
the speed
as the screw
runs
down. Set the screw
snugly
by slowing
to a
stop.
Prior
to driving
screws,
pilot
and
clearance
holes should
be drilled.
FASTENING
WITH SCREWS
This procedure
shown
in (Fig. 7) will enable
you to fasten
materials
together
with
your
Cordless
Drill/Screwdriver
without
stripping,
splitting or separating
the material.
First, clamp the pieces
together
and drill the
first hole 2/3 the diameter
of the screw. If the
material
is soft,
drill
only
2/3 the proper
length. If it is hard, drill the entire length.
Second,
unclamp
the pieces
and drill
the
second
hole the same diameter
as the screw
shank in the first or top piece of wood.
Third,
if flat head screw
is used, countersink
the hole to make
the screw
flush
with
the
surface.
Then,
simply
apply
even pressure
when
driving
the screw.
The
screw
shank
clearance
hole
in the first
piece allows
the
screw head to pull the pieces tightly together.
The adjustable
screw
drill accessory
will do
all of these
operations
quickly
and easily.
Screw drills are available
for screw sizes No.
6, 8, 10 and 12.

DRILL BITS
Always inspect drill bits for excessive wear.
Use only bits that are sharp and in good
condition.
TWIST
BITS:
Available
with
straight
and
reduced shanks for wood and light duty metal
drilling.
High
speed
bits cut faster
and last
longer on hard materials.
CARBIDE
TIPPED
BITS:
Used
for drilling
stone,
concrete,
plaster,
cement
and other
unusually
hard nonmetals.
Use continuous
heaw
feed pressure
when employing
carbide
tip bits.
DRILLING
WOOD
Be certain workpiece
is clamped
or anchored
firmly. Always apply pressure
in a straight line
with the drill bit. Maintain
enough
pressure
to
keep the drill "biting".
