Drilling operation
CAUTION:
Pressing excessively on the tool will not speed up
•
the drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure will
only serve to damage the tip of your bit, decrease
the tool performance and shorten the service life
of the tool.
There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit
•
at the time of hole break through. Hold the tool
firmly and exert care when the bit begins to break
through the workpiece.
A stuck bit can be removed simply by setting the
•
reversing switch to reverse rotation in order to
back out. However, the tool may back out abruptly
if you do not hold it firmly.
Always secure small workpieces in a vise or
•
similar hold-down device.
If the tool is operated continuously until the battery
•
cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for
15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
First, slide the action mode change lever so that it
points to the marking. The adjusting ring can be
aligned in any torque levels for this operation. Then
proceed as follows.
Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with
wood drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide
screw makes drilling easier by pulling the bit into the
workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the bit from slipping when starting a hole,
make an indentation with a center-punch and hammer
at the point to be drilled. Place the point of the bit in the
indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The
exceptions are iron and brass which should be drilled
dry.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
•
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or
•
the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may
result.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
any other maintenance or adjustment should be
performed by Makita Authorized or Factory Service
Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
