Drilling operation
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.
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 twisting force exerted on
•
the tool/bit at the time of hole breakthrough. 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.
Avoid drilling in material that you suspect contains
•
hidden nails or other things that may cause the bit
to bind or break.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
•
unplugged 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,
carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other
maintenance or adjustment should be performed by
Makita Authorized Service Centers, always using Makita
replacement parts.
