For helpful how to videos, be sure to visit http://www.Lowes.com/Videos. The drill is a versatile tool that can do many jobs. And it’s easy to operate. Your drill comes with a battery and charger. You can’t use the drill without it, so it’s a good idea to keep a spare battery on a charger so you don’t get stranded in the middle of a project. Your drill has controls for forward and reverse and speed control. Remember that a lower speed means more power.
There are two common types of drill bits. Bit for drilling holes and driver bits for driving fasteners. A normal drill kit will come with a variety of sizes.
Here’s a tip: push the bit in all the way, then back it out bout an 1/8th of an inch, that gives the chuck a better grip on the bit and allows it to tighten on the bit better.
Proper drilling protocol: Whether you’re drilling or driving, the same basic form applies. Put on your safety gear, then hold the drill perpendicular to the surface, that keeps the bit from wandering or breaking. Tip: if you’re a beginner, hold a square next to the drill so you see & feel the correct alignment.

Great video !!
Thank you Lows because my father left me at a Mcdonalds alone with one of these drills and a tweaker attacked me so this helped me fight him off!
Great video. Very helpful. Thanks.
I'M SO FRUSTRATED. I'VE NOW WATCHED 4 "HOW TO USE DRILL" VIDEOS AND NONE OF THEM DISCUSS WHAT'S UP W/ THOSE NUMBERS ON THE DIAL ABOVE THE CHUCK. I THINK EVERYTHING ELSE IS COMMON SENSE THAT YOU GUYS TALK ABOUT. WHAT REALLY MATTERS TO ME IS THAT DIAL ABOVE THE CHUCK. WHAT ARE THOSE NUMBERS FOR????? WHY ISN'T ANYONE BREAKING THAT DOWN????
Who doesn't know how to use a drill….
Nice quick down and dirty tutorial. OMG 40+ thumbs downs? Who are these morons haha?!!

You're holding it wrong. Index finger is for balance. Middle finger is the trigger finger rookie lol
True but she left out one key piece of info that even Tim the Toolman Taylor would be proud of. Cordless drills can be used in the kitchen as well for a really good mixer. Those eggs come our really fluffy.
