10 1/2-Inch and 3/8-Inch Drill Operator's Manual
Operation
APPLICATIONS:
Boring holes in metal, wood and plastic.
PRE-OPERATION:
1. Power source:
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power source requirements specified on the
product nameplate.
2. Power switch:
Ensure that the switch is in the OFF position. If the
plug is connected to a receptacle while the switch is
in the ON position, the power tool will start operating
immediately and can cause serious injury.
3. Extension cord:
When the work area is far away from the power
source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as possible.
WARNING: DAMAGED CORD MUST BE
REPLACED OR REPAIRED.
4. Check the receptacle:
If the receptacle only loosely accepts the plug, the
receptacle must be repaired. Contact a licensed
electrician to make appropriate repairs.
If such a faulty receptacle is used, it may cause
overheating, resulting in a serious hazard.
5. Check your work environment:
Confirm that the work site is placed under
appropriate conditions conforming to prescribed
precautions.
6. Selecting the appropriate drill bit:
a.
When boring metal or plastic, use an ordinary
metalworking drill bit.
b. When boring wood, use an ordinary woodwork
ing drill bit.
However, when drilling 1/4" (6.5 mm) or smaller
holes, use a metalworking drill bit.
