How to use

Secure the 17 mm Bosch SELFCUT bit in a compatible drill chuck or hex holder. Mark the drilling position on the wood, start drilling at low speed to align the tip, then increase speed while applying steady pressure. Withdraw periodically when drilling deep holes to allow chips to clear and to avoid overheating. For repeatable accuracy, use a drill press or guide where possible.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye protection and hearing protection). Match drill speed to the wood type—lower speeds for hardwoods—and avoid excessive side loads. Ensure the hex shank is fully seated in the chuck or holder before operation.
