- Mark the hole location and secure the workpiece. Use a centering jig or the Alpha Drill Bit Guide/Water Delivery System to prevent the bit from skating on the glaze.
- Chuck the 3/8" shank into a standard 3/8" or larger drill. To run on a water-fed polisher, thread the CH1058 adapter onto the 5/8"-11 spindle first.
- Apply a steady stream of cool water at the cutting point throughout drilling — these bits are wet use only.
- Start at an angle to break the glaze, then bring the bit upright once it has bitten in. Keep RPM at or below 3,500.
- Use light, even pressure and lift the bit every few seconds to flush slurry and re-cool the diamond.
- Slow down as you break through the back face to avoid chipping. Rinse the bit clean after each hole.
