Before commencing the drilling, make a little test-run on a piece of material to prepare the machine.

If the hole required is of a large diameter, start by drilling a smaller hole. The next step is to change the bit to the appropriate size you’re after and bore the hole.

Set high speed for wood and lower speed for metals and plastic. Also, the larger the diameter, the lower the speed must be.

Ensure you read through your owner’s manual for guidance on the correct speed for each material type and size.

Additional lighting is sometimes necessary.

Wear suitable gloves and eye protection, and avoid removing waste chips on the drill bit while drilling.

Inspect your drill bit before you get started. A dull drill bit won’t perform as it should — it must be sharp. Remember to use a bit sharpener and drill at the right speed.
