How to use

Mark the drill position on the tile and secure the workpiece to prevent movement. Fit the drill bit into an angle grinder with an M14 chuck and tighten according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Start drilling at low speed to establish the hole, then maintain steady speed and light pressure; avoid applying excessive force. Since this bit is intended for dry drilling, periodically withdraw to remove debris and allow the bit to cool between holes if necessary.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (safety goggles, gloves, dust mask) and ensure the tile is supported to reduce vibration. For cleaner holes and longer bit life, consider using a guide or starting hole and avoid overheating by working in short intervals.
