adjacent components while drilling and make
sure to remove any drill chips immediately
using a vacuum cleaner. Use a suitable base,
if necessary, to protect components.
1.4 De-burr bores using a triangular scraper or a
90° tapered countersink.
1.5 Apply primer to the surfaces at the bores that
are exposed as a result of drilling.
