subject: Cordless Drills – Taking Care of Business [print this page] All tools are an investment, and especially power tools therefore your going to want to be using your cordless drills year on year. Considering the function of power tools, however, they are especially prone to damage, which makes correct maintenance of your power tools especially pertinent.
Whilst power tools are built to withstand strenuous usage, they are just as prone to damage when they're not doing anything at all and by storing your cordless drills incorrectly you leave them prone to a series of issues such as rusting etc. With this in mind, it is worth investing in a storage case or bag for your tool if it doesn't come with one already and that way when it is stowed away for future usage you can ensure that its not left to get dirty, or even go rusty which could affect its functionality.
Of course, correct use of power tools will not only endanger the user, but will also endanger the device, and therefore there are a few common sense guidelines you should keep firmly in mind when using cordless drills; for example, your drill-bit choice should correspond with your project requirement, otherwise you will not only damage your drill but potentially ruin that all important DIY project!
For cordless drills in particular there is also the added factor of the drill battery to consider and as batteries are prone to extremes of temperature, then it is important that you don't expose them to extreme heat, for example, which can be present in a working environment.
Most problems with cordless drills can be avoided with common sense, and, for example, if you remember that your device is an electronic tool, and therefore refrain from exposing it to the worst the British weather has to offer, then you should get the most out of that investment year on year!
