Tool Operation
1. Secure the material being drilled using vise or clamps
to make sure it does not move while drilling.
2. Always use the auxiliary handle supplied with the tool
for maximum control.
3. Select the appropriate bit for the task. (see
applications section below).
4. Always use sharp bits to avoid slipping or
overstressing the tool.
5. Use only enough steady pressure to allow the bit to
effectively cut. Do not use excessive pressure.
6. Select the appropriate application for the task (see
applications section below).
7. Select the appropriate speed for the task (see
applications section below).
8. Place the tip of the bit against the work piece before
starting the tool.
9. Apply firm pressure to the tool before starting and
during drilling. Too much pressure will slow the bit
and reduce drilling efficiency. Too little pressure will

allow the bit to slide or spin against the work piece,
dulling the bit and losing control.
10. Always start drilling or driving slowly, and gradually
increase speed as you go.
11. Find the right amount of pressure and speed to allow
the bit to do the work and produce a consistent chip.
12. If the tool begins to stall, reduce the amount of
pressure to allow the bit to regain speed.
13. Pull the bit out of the work piece multiple times while
drilling each hole to remove chips that can cause
binding.
14. Use backing material whenever possible to prevent
binding of the bit or distortion of the material upon
breakthrough.
15. If the bit binds in the work piece, reverse the tool to
free and remove the bit.
16. Always test the bit in a scrap piece to determine
optimal bit and settings for each application.
Auxiliary Handle
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, always use a side
handle when using this tool. Always brace or hold
securely.
WARNING
DO NOT BLOCK VENT OPENINGS
The auxiliary handle can be configured in a straight or
T-style depending on the user preference. The
T-handle makes it easier to apply force in the down
position when drilling into concrete or other materials.
