Installation & Usage Tips
- Secure the drill bit firmly in the chuck to avoid wobble.
- Use cutting oil or lubricant when drilling into metal to extend tool life.
- Start at a low RPM to establish the entry point, then increase speed as needed.
- Maintain steady, moderate pressure—excessive force can cause premature wear.
- Periodically inspect the tip for wear and replace if the cutting edge becomes dull.
