Drilling
Always unplug the drill when attaching or removing accessories. When attaching
accessories in the drill chuck, it is important to securely tighten the chuck using all three
holes to prevent slippage. When using a keyless chuck, hand tighten firmly.
Use sharp drill bits only.
Support and secure work properly, as instructed in the safety instructions.
Use appropriate and required safety equipment, as instructed in the safety instructions.
Secure and maintain work area, as instructed in the safety instructions.
Plug in drill. Make sure switch turns drill on and off.
Run the drill very slowly, using light pressure, until the hole is started enough to keep the
drill bit from slipping out of it.
Apply pressure in a straight line with the bit. Use enough pressure to keep the bit biting
but not so much as to stall the motor or deflect the bit.
Hold the drill firmly with both hands to control its twisting action (figure A).
Use side handle if drill (DR560) is equipped with one.
DO NOT CLICK THE TRIGGER OF A STALLED DRILL OFF AND ON IN AN ATTEMPT
TO START IT. DAMAGE TO THE DRILL CAN RESULT.
Minimize stalling on breakthrough by reducing pressure and slowly drilling through the
last part of the hole.
Keep the motor running while pulling the bit out of a drilled hole. This will help reduce jamming.
Drilling In Wood
Holes in wood can be made with the same twist drill bits used for metal or with spade bits.
These bits should be sharp and should be pulled out frequently when drilling to clear chips
from the flutes.
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 sulfurized cutting oil or lard oil.
