  3. Çakê vekin: Çeneya sondajê li dijî aliyê saetê bizivirînin da ku çene bi têra xwe fireh vebin ku lingê bitê sondajê qebûl bikin.
  4. Bitê têxe: Insert the shank of the BM2018 masonry drill bit into the chuck. Ensure it is inserted as far as possible without the flutes touching the chuck jaws.
  5. Çakê teng bike: Rotate the chuck clockwise to securely tighten the jaws around the drill bit shank. For keyless chucks, hand-tighten firmly. For keyed chucks, use the chuck key to tighten securely, ensuring all three jaws grip the bit evenly.
  6. Ewlehiyê piştrast bikin: Give the drill bit a gentle tug to confirm it is firmly seated and will not slip during operation.

4. Telîmatên Operating

Follow these steps for effective drilling in masonry, brick, and block.

  1. Cihê kolandinê nîşan bide: Cihê ku hûn dixwazin qul bikin bi zelalî nîşan bikin.
  2. Cihê Drillê Bikin: Hold the drill firmly with both hands, ensuring a stable grip. Align the drill bit with the marked spot at a 90-degree angle to the surface.
  3. Hêdî hêdî dest pê bikin: Begin drilling at a slow speed to create a pilot indentation and prevent the bit from walking. The precision manufacturing of this bit helps reduce walking.
  4. Lez û Zextê Zêde Bike: Once the bit has engaged the material, gradually increase the drill speed. Apply steady, moderate pressure. Avoid excessive force, which can cause the bit to overheat or break.
  5. Maintain Consistent Speed: For optimal performance, maintain a consistent drilling speed. This bit is designed for efficient material removal, even in high-speed modes.
  6. Parzûnên Paqij: Periodically withdraw the drill bit slightly from the hole to allow debris to clear from the flutes. This prevents clogging and reduces heat buildup.
  7. Çalê temam bike: Sondajê bidomînin heya ku bigihîje kûrahiya xwestî.
  8. Bitê vekişîne: Once the hole is complete, slowly withdraw the drill bit from the hole while the drill is still rotating.

  • Rûnkirin (Vebijarkî): For very hard materials or prolonged drilling, a small amount of cutting fluid or water can be used to cool the bit and reduce friction. Ensure the drill is rated for wet drilling if using water.
  • Embarkirinî: Store the drill bit in a dry place to prevent rust. Keep it in its original packaging or a drill bit case to protect the carbide tip from damage.
  • Berçavderbasî: Regularly inspect the bit for signs of wear, dullness, or damage. A dull bit will drill slowly and generate excessive heat. Replace worn or damaged bits immediately.

6. Destpêkirin

Li vir çend pirsgirêkên hevpar û çareseriyên wan hene:

  • Bit is drilling slowly or not cutting:
    • The bit may be dull or worn. Replace the bit.
    • Insufficient pressure is being applied. Increase steady pressure.
    • Debris is clogging the flutes. Withdraw the bit periodically to clear debris.
  • Bit is overheating:
    • Excessive pressure or speed. Reduce pressure or speed.
    • Lack of debris removal. Clear flutes more frequently.
    • Prolonged continuous drilling. Allow the bit to cool down.
  • Bit is walking or slipping at the start:
    • Not starting at a slow speed. Begin drilling at a very slow speed until the bit bites into the material.
    • Insufficient grip on the drill. Ensure a firm, two-handed grip.
  • Livîna zêde:
