How to use

Fit the hole saw to a compatible arbor and tighten according to the arbor manufacturer’s instructions. Secure the workpiece and mark the drilling position. Start drilling at low speed to establish a guide, then apply steady pressure and increase speed as appropriate for the material. Periodically withdraw the saw to clear chips and prevent overheating when cutting metals or stainless steel. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and drill at recommended speeds for the material.

Recommendations

For longer tool life when cutting metals or stainless steel, use cutting lubricant and avoid excessive pressure. For clean holes in wood and plastics, run the drill at higher speed and support the workpiece to reduce tear‑out.
