NOTE:
• When using this tool, the rotating action causes
the tool to pull. The less pressure applied to the
tool causes less pull and provides a more accu-
rate cut. Excessive pressure or fast cutting can
cause the bit to dull or break premature.
• When cutting drywall around outlet boxes, cut in
a counterclockwise direction for ease of cut.
• The standard bit included with this tool is for cut-
ting drywall only. When cutting materials other
than drywall, do not use the standard drywall
guide bit.
