Preparing the tool for use / Cleaning and Maintenance / Disposal
Hard screw bed:
j
Particularly high torques can occur, for example
with metal screws tightened by socket tool bits.
Select a lower rotation speed.
Soft screw bed:
j
You should also select a low speed in order not
to damage the wood workpiece surface through
contact with the metal screw head. Use a coun-
tersinker.
When drilling into wood, metal and other
materials, take note of the following advice:
j
With small diameter drill bits use a high drill
speed. For large diameter drill bits, use a low
drill speed.
j For hard materials, select a low drill speed.
For soft materials, select a high drill speed.
j Secure or fix down the workpiece (if possible)
in a clamp or vice.
j Mark the intended position of the hole with a
centre punch or a nail and select a low drill speed
for drilling.
j Take the rotating drill bit out of the hole frequently
so that swarf or drill dust can be re-moved and
the hole and tool is ventilated.
Drilling in metal:
j Use a metal drill bit (HSS). For the best results,
you should cool the bit with oil. Metal drill bits
can also be used to drill into plastic.
Drilling in stone:
j Use a circular shafted masonry drill bit with a
hardened metal tip.
Drilling in wood:
j Normally you should use a wood drill with a
centring point. For deep holes, use an auger type
bit. For large diameter holes, use a forstner bit.
You can screw small screws into soft wood
without the need for pre-drilling.
