Changing The Direction Of Rotation; Tips And Tricks - Parkside PABS 20-Li D5 Betriebsanleitung

Changing the direction of rotation

♦ Change the direction of rotation by pushing the
rotation direction switch

Tips and tricks

Tip! How to do things correctly.
♦ Before operation, check whether the screw or
drill insert is correctly fitted, i.e. centred in the
drill chuck.
♦ Screw bits are labelled according to their
dimensions and their shape. If you are uncer-
tain, always check first whether the bit fits tightly
in the screw head without any play.
Torque
♦ Smaller screws/bits can be damaged if you
set too high a torque or too high a speed.
Hard screw joints (in metal)
♦ Particularly high torques occur, e.g. in metal
screw joints made using drive sockets.
Select a low rotational speed.
Soft screw joints (e.g. in soft wood)
♦ Here, too, you should use a low rotational
speed, e.g. to avoid damaging the surface of
the wood upon contact with the screw head.
Use a countersink.
When drilling in wood, metal and other
materials, observe the following:
♦ Use a high speed for drill bits with a small
diameter and a low speed for drill bits with
a large diameter.
♦ Select a low speed for hard materials and
a high speed for soft materials.
♦ Secure or fasten the workpiece in a clamp
or vice (if possible).

♦ Mark the spot where you want to drill using
a centre punch or nail. Select a low rotational
speed when starting.
♦ Pull the rotating drill bit from the hole repeatedly
to remove dust and chips and clear the hole.
Drilling in metal
♦ Use a metal drill (HSS). For optimum results,
cool the drill bit with cutting oil. Metal drill bits
can also be used to drill into plastics. Start with
a 3 mm drill bit and then increase the size until
the desired hole diameter is achieved.
Drilling in wood
♦ Use a wood drill with a lathe centre; for deep
holes, use an auger bit; for large-diameter
holes, use a Forstner bit. Small screws can be
screwed directly into soft wood without
predrilling.
