| Problem: |
Drill Points are difficult to start and keep sliding on metal surface. |
| |
| Possible Cause: |
- The screw is not being held at right angles to the work surface.
|
| Solution: |
- Hold the screw at 90 degrees to the work being drilled.
|
| |
| Possible Cause: |
- Insufficient force being applied when starting drilling action.
- Steel being drilled is too hard.
|
| Solution: |
- For most efficient operation approx. 10kg of force should be applied. Place screw in driver-position at workplace
and give sharp pressure downward to create a centre mark on the material. Simultaneously squeezing the trigger
of the driver apply extra force to the drill point to assist it to “dig in” as it starts to rotate.
|
| |
| Possible Cause: |
- Screwdriver running in reverse.
|
| Solution: |
- Change switch to forward position.
