Drilling in metal
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions
are cast iron and brass which should be drilled dry. The cutting
lubricants that work best are sulphurized cutting oil.
Drilling in masonry
Use carbide tipped masonry bits. Refer to Drilling section.
Keep even force on the drill but not so much that you crack
the brittle material. A smooth, even flow of dust indicates the
proper drilling rate.
LED work light
When drill is activated by pulling the trigger switch (1), the
integrated LED work light (8)will automatically illuminate the
work area.
Note: The work light is for lighting the immediate work surface
and is not intended to be used as a flashlight.
Bit tip storage
A bit storage slot (9) is built into the base of the tool.
