As a general rule yes but before using for any surface or material, you have to bear in mind that is much easier to use a vertical support when possible if you have to accomplish a difficult drilling job. If you don’t use a vertical support when drilling, you must firmly hold the Makita Drill instead. Always with a steady hand and paying close attention to what you are doing since any distraction can turn into an accident.
Remember to not apply too much force when drilling since your work will not be as appropriate. If you apply too much pressure with your drill you can also break the material you are working with or even the bit drill. This may lead to broken parts and even some greater damage. To avoid this, you must use very sharp bits and apply an uniform pressure. You can also solve this problem by putting a material behind such as a piece of wood, which will help you differ from applying little pressure to using too much drilling power.
Make sure your Makita drill is also securely fasten and in full contact with your body at all times.
When drilling soft materials such as plastics, you will have minor problems since the amount of pressure you have to use is lesser and if you need so, you can solve some of the problems by using a small file to remove any imperfections.
So again, make good use of your makita drill and use it safely. Don’t try to work around children since it can be dangerous as well. Keep your other tools at safe when drilling since accidents can happen at any time.
