Setup, Compatibility & Care

  2. Attach the pilot drill bit: Securely insert the appropriate pilot drill bit into the arbor.
  3. Mount the hole saw: Screw the hole saw onto the arbor until it is firmly attached.

  • Storage: Store the hole saws in a dry place to protect them from moisture and damage.
