What is the exact drill bit size to use? They came with no instructions.

I don't remember it was to long ago. I know I just matched it up with a bit

I used a 1/2 inch diamond drill bit (it's not like a normal bit, it's hollow in the middle), you can purchase at your local home improvement store. There are videos that will show you the procedure. I just saw the other comments, those are wrong. I just checked my drill bit to make sure, it is 1/2 inch. DON'T use anything bigger or you will have a giant hole in your nice counter tops.

Not sure about the hole size. I've had too many different types. Just test drill on scrap wood to make sure you have the right size bit for the threaded nut to fit in.

They last me for a long time, I strongly recommend that you insert the drill bit as far as it will go with the drill off, then dill your hole in 2 stages and pull it back about 1/4" with the drill going let the bit coast to a stop and then remove the bit. This will not merely make the bit last longer but also the guides! The screws are everywhere.

There was not bit included with the drill, so I cannot say. One should make sure that very small bits are available.

I have the 5/8" dia x 10" long bit. It has a turned shaft that appears to be right at 1/2" dia...perhaps even a 32'nd less or so. This item is for a common/std "hammer drill" -- NOT the SDS series. There are NO FLATS on the shank. Hope this helps. Mel in Montana

use a 1/4'' drill bit, then a 1'' uni-bit to ream 3/4'' hole. it leaves less material to file for fine adjustment if needed

I suggest you read the description better and listen to the other answers. These are very small and precise bits not meant for drilling.

It's a regular 1/2 chuck that is keyless. It will take all bits up to 1/2". Hex shank is better cause they won't slip as round shank will but all will work. Very good drill compared to the old DeWalt 18v I had. Strongly recommend

At the hardware store, get a closed circle hook with the appropriate weight limit. The package usually tells what size hole to drill for it. If it doesn't, you can hold a drill bit in front of the "screw" part of the hook. If you can see the entire threads of the screw on both sides of the drill bit at the same time, it's the right size.

I've only used it with the heads that came with it so I'm sorry but can't be of any help as far as drill bits.

Use the size that comes with it and nothing else. I ruined my old one by using one that was a different size. Mine came with plenty of bits so I just stick with mine now. Oh BTY I LOVE MY DRILL!!! :-) It's wonderful!

The drill bit doesn't have the size labeled on it. I used a caliper to measure it and it is 0.245" or converted to mm 6.223mm

I used a 1/8 inch bit. Maxxair website should list that, plus it is listed in instructions. Very easy.

Sorry I don't remember. I am pretty sure one of the videos on You tube tells you what size to drill.

You can use any drill bit that has a 1/4" hex shank. Amazon has many different brands for sale. Go to the Amazon search engine, scroll down to tools & home improvement. Key in (drill bits with 1/4" shank) and a wide selection of bits will come up. Any questions, you can contact Dewalt at 800 4dewalt. Good luck

Those are the correct screwdriver bits for the drill. The one that comes with it is that short. They are super easy to put in and remove. You can always send for the drill and see the bit that comes with it if you want to feel better about ordering more.
