How to use

Select a compatible arbor and pilot bit for your drill, mount the hole saw securely and ensure the pilot bit is centered on the intended drilling location. Start drilling at low speed to establish the pilot hole, then increase speed steadily while applying moderate, even pressure. For metal and stainless steel, use cutting lubricant and slower speeds to reduce heat and prolong tool life. Clear metal chips or wood shavings periodically to prevent clogging and to maintain cutting efficiency. After completing the cut, remove burrs and finish the edge as required.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment including safety glasses and gloves. Match drill speed and feed to the workpiece material: lower speeds for harder metals, higher speeds for wood and plastics. Keep the cutting area clear of debris and allow the tool to cool between prolonged cuts to preserve tooth geometry and extend service life.
