Ensure the drill bit is securely tightened in the chuck. Start with a pilot hole using a smaller bit, or increase pressure gently.

Reduce the drill speed, apply less pressure, and avoid using the impact setting. Consider using a small pilot hole first.

Reduce the drilling speed and allow the bit to cool down periodically. Avoid excessive pressure.
