How to use

Secure the drill bit in the drill chuck by its cylindrical shank. Set the adjustable countersink and the depth stop to the required position. Start drilling at low speed to create a precise entry point, then increase speed as appropriate for the workpiece material. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear chips and ensure the depth stop engages at the desired depth.

Recommendations

Use appropriate drill speed and moderate feed pressure for the material being drilled. For hardwoods, reduce speed and apply steady pressure; for plastics, use lower speed to avoid melting. Wear eye protection and follow standard safety precautions when operating power tools.
