It's designed for metalworking and works well on metal and steel, delivering clean and precise holes. For best results, use appropriate cutting oil and avoid overheating.

1) Open the drill chuck and firmly insert the 7.5 mm shank. 2) Tighten the chuck so the bit is secure. 3) Secure your workpiece. 4) Apply cutting oil or lubricant. 5) Start at a low speed with steady, moderate feed pressure. 6) Periodically withdraw to clear chips and prevent binding. 7) Stop when the hole is complete and remove the bit while it’s still rotating.

Use cutting oil or a suitable lubricant to reduce heat and extend life. Start with a conservative speed and feed, then increase gradually as you monitor heat and cutting performance to prevent overheating.
