Verify shank compatibility and coolant setup
Confirm that your machine spindle or tool holder accepts a straight shank of the correct diameter before ordering. Ensure the workpiece material matches the drill's recommended application range for optimal results. Review the California Proposition 65 notices regarding chemical exposure during use and handling.
