How to get the best results
- Attach a compatible Snap-Lock Plus mandrel to your drill or driver.
- Mark the center and, if needed, start with a small pilot hole to guide the saw.
- Begin at a low speed with steady, even pressure; let the carbide teeth do the cutting to minimize heat buildup.
- Progress gradually and back off occasionally to clear debris and prevent binding.
- Lubricate or mist with a light spray on metal or dense materials to extend tooth life and maintain a smoother cut.
