Do not use this cutter for drilling holes or for enlarging holes that are less than twice the diameter of the cutter. The tungsten carbide surface can easily catch the side of a hole and break the bit
For best results, insert the accessory bit all the way into the tool and then back it out slightly before tightening down. This provides plenty of shank for the collect or chuck to hold onto the bit
Secure objects to a stable surface while working
Use the sides of the cutter (rather than the tip) for effective cutting. The tip cuts poorly and can break under pressure
Use higher speeds for hardwoods , slower speeds for metals and very slow speeds for plastics (to avoid melting at the point of contact). If chattering occurs, increase speed
