Point A masonry bit is able to drill into concrete and similar material because it has a? Carbide tip An example of an electric power drill that is designed to be used in a tight space is a? Right angle drill Pneumatic tools get their powers from? Air pressure Before you start drilling, make sure the drill bit is Tightened in the chuck When using a power drill, proper ground fault protection will prevent Electrical shock An example of an AC source of power is a wall receptacle When using an air wrench keep your body stance balanced To prevent electrical shock, power tools should only be operated with the proper GFCI
