The indicated speeds and feeds are when water soluble oil is used. 2. With the exception of using milling chucks, pay careful attention to ensure that drill is rigidly clamped and keep deflection at a minimum. 3. In case of drilling depth: >4D, reduce drilling speed as below. 4. When using non-water soluble oil or water-emulsifiable oil (over 10 times dilution), reduce drilling speed by 20%. 5. Step process should be used when drilling depth of the hole exceeds 4 times drill diameter for vertical machines or 3 times drill diameter for horizontal lathe machines. 3
