Ryobi Drill Drivers - Some Safety Tips for DIY

One of the first aspect you could think about when selecting a cordless drill driver could be the battery pack as the more volts your cordless drill driver has the more torque you may get. This essentially means that the motor may spin faster creating greater power. The only drawback with this is that the more volts your drill has the heavier it may be.

The Hammer Drill is not only able to provide a rotary motion but will also apply a small amount of hammer action to the drill bit, as though someone was tapping the back of the drill while the bit was spinning. This enables the drill to work through masonry. A Hammer Drill may typically have the ability to switch the hammer action off and on as required. You may find that motor wattages start around 600w for this type of drill and a good idea is to look at machines with around a 700w motor, these may enable you to drill masonry with up to a 16mm bit. This type of drill is a good all rounder for the home.

An adjustable clutch is what separates electric from cordless drill drivers. Located just behind the chuck, the clutch disengages the drive shaft of the drill, making a clicking sound, when a preset level of resistance is reached. The result is that the motor is still turning, but the screwdriver bit isn't. A clutch gives you control so you don't strip a screw or overdrive it once it's snug. It also helps protect the motor when a lot of resistance is met in driving a screw or tightening a bolt. The number of separate clutch settings varies on the drill; better drill drivers have at least 24 settings. With that a lot of clutch settings, you can really fine-tune the power a drill driver delivers. Settings with the lowest numbers are for small screws, higher numbers are for larger screws. Many clutches also have a drill setting, which allows the motor to drive the bit at full power.

Factors such as temperature, the material being drilled, whether the drilling is nonstop or intermittent, and the whether the battery is at full charge or not may affect a cordless drill driver's battery charge. The standard time required to charge a battery pack may vary from one hour to overnight, depending on the type of tool and charger. Recharge when the drop in performance and power is noticeable. Don't wait until the tool quits working to recharge the battery.

Lithium-ion batteries (sometimes abbreviated Li-ion batteries) are a type of rechargeable battery in which a lithium ion moves between the anode and cathode. The lithium ion moves from the anode to the cathode during discharge and from the cathode to the anode when charging.

If a Li-ion battery is stored with too low a charge, there is a risk of allowing the charge to drop below the battery's low-voltage threshold, resulting in an unrecoverable dead battery. Once the charge has dropped to this level, recharging it can be dangerous. Some batteries therefore feature an internal safety circuit which may stop charging in this state, and the battery may be for all practical purposes dead. In circumstances where a second Li-ion battery is available for a given device, it is recommended that the unused battery be discharged to 40% and placed in the refrigerator to prolong its shelf life. While the battery can be used or charged immediately, some Li-ion batteries may provide more energy when brought to room temperature.

Drilling a hole isn't rocket science but it can be quite frustrating if you don't know how to do it. For example, if you try to use a wood auger bit to drill a hole in metal you'll ruin the bit, score the metal and possibly injure yourself in the process. Drilling a hole correctly, however, is something you can easily accomplish with a little practice.

To drill a satisfactory hole in any material, the correct type of drill bit must be used; it must be used correctly and be sharpened as suitable. Many jobs around the house require a hole of some kind to be drilled - whether it is putting up a shelf, building a cabinet or hanging a light fitting. For basic requirements, a set of high-speed steel twist bits and some masonry bits may probably be sufficient for the average handyman. But for more sophisticated jobs/material, others bits may be required - perhaps larger, or manufactured for a specific material/purpose. Good quality drill bits can be expensive, so take care of them, keep them in a case or box if possible, rather than allowing them to roll around loose in a toolbox where the cutting edges may be damaged.

Usually referred to as twist drill bits, twist bits are probably the many common drilling tools used by the handyman with either a hand or electric drill. The front edges cut the material and the spirals along the length remove the debris from the hole and tend to keep the bit straight. They can be used on timber, metal, plastics and similar materials. Most twist bits are made from either High Speed Steel (HSS) or Carbon Steel. High Speed Steel bits are suitable for drilling many types of material. When drilling metal the HSS stands up to the high temperatures. Carbon steel bits are specially ground for drilling wood and could not be used for drilling metals as they tend to be more brittle and less flexible than HSS bits.

DIY Safety tips:

If a fuse blows for no obvious reason or an appliance is not working properly, switch off the appliance at the socket and unplug it before trying to find out why. If the fault can't be found or you are uncertain how to find the fault, get expert help. The same principles apply to fuse boxes or circuit breakers - always switch off at the mains before you investigate and remember to replace the cover before switching back on.
Always use the correct tools for the job. It is worth investing in high quality equipment as this may be safer and may probably do the job faster.

Take extra care when removing artex or textured paint from walls as these materials may contain asbestos. Safety precautions must be followed when handling and disposing of asbestos. Contact your local environmental health department for help.

Do not work with electricity in damp or wet conditions. If you MUST, always use an RCD. Always place the cable of a hedge trimmer or mower over your shoulder and keep it behind you at all times.

Wear safety goggles whenever there may be a danger of flying debris - for example when using power tools.
