OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE
Steps/Procedure:
1. Select the Drill Bit or Driver
Drill bits: If drilling a pilot drill for a screw,
the bit should be the same diameter as the
shank of the screw. The shank is the
screw's inner core or its shaft.
Drill drivers: Select a Phillips head, flat
head, square head, or other type of driver
shape to match the fastener that you are
driving.
2. Adjust the Drill's Clutch
After checking whether the drill is in
forward or reverse, adjust the drill's clutch
speed/torque setting. Drills differ but
usually setting 1 indicates low speed and
high torque, which is best for driving
screws. Setting 2 represents high speed
and low torque, best for drilling holes.
3. Chuck in the Driver or Drill Bit
Most power drills have a keyless chuck
function. Loosen the drill's collar by turning
it counter-clockwise (if the drill is facing
you) until the chuck opens just large
enough to permit the driver or drill bit.
Then, you tighten by turning the collar in
the opposite direction. The rotation of the
drill will keep the driver or bit securely in
place.
