HOW TO USE:
- Identify Mark Location: Determine the exact spot where you intend to drill a hole on your workpiece.
- Position the Punch: Place the sharp point of the Mayhew center punch directly on the identified mark. Ensure the punch is held vertically and firmly against the material.
- Strike with a Hammer: Using a hammer, deliver a firm, single strike to the top (blunt end) of the center punch. A moderate force is typically sufficient to create a visible indentation.
- Inspect the Mark: Remove the punch and inspect the created indentation. It should be a clear, small dimple that will guide your drill bit.
- Begin Drilling: Align your drill bit with the created indentation and proceed with drilling. The pilot mark will help keep the drill bit centered, improving accuracy.
