Chip breaking
− In many cases, excessively long drill chips can be broken. Whilst drilling, guide
the chuck
13
using the fitted drill bit out of the drilling hole so that the drilling
chip comes out by itself.
Removing blockages
• You should generally select a suitable feed rate so that chips can be broken down
without any disruptions.
• If the tool gets caught in the workpiece, turn off the drill and pull the mains plug
out of the socket. Turn the tool fitted in the chuck
13
counterclockwise with a
small jerk to break the chips and release the tool again.
• If a piece breaks off when working on the workpiece, switch off the drill and
pull the mains plug out of the socket. Use pliers to help remove the fragment to
prevent it from being uncontrollably projected.

The drill bit or fitted tool may be very hot directly after drilling. Hot, sharp-edged
metal chips pose a risk of injury.
