Troubleshooting
Drill bit is not cutting through the material.
Check the drill speed and pressure. Ensure the drill bit is sharp and in good condition. Try using water for cooling and lubrication.
Drill bit is overheating.
Reduce the drill speed. Apply water or a lubricant to the drilling area to cool the bit.
Drill bit is chipping the material.
Reduce pressure and drill at a slower speed. Use a pecking motion to prevent chipping.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Attachment: Insert the drill bit into a standard drill chuck and tighten securely.
Material Preparation: Mark the spot where you want to drill. Use masking tape to prevent the bit from wandering on smooth surfaces.
Drilling Technique: Start with a low speed and gradually increase it as needed. Apply steady, even pressure, and allow the bit to do the work. Use a pecking motion (drilling a little, then retracting) to clear debris and prevent overheating, especially on hard materials.
Compatibility: These drill bits are compatible with all standard drills. Ensure your drill has sufficient power for the materials you are working with.
Care: After each use, clean the drill bits with a soft cloth to remove debris. Store them in a dry place to prevent rust. Avoid using excessive force, as it can damage the carbide tips.
