    3. Lightly press the drill bit against the rivets to drill off the rivet flanges, and remove the 6 rivets.

      Note


      • Pressing the drill too firmly will cause the rivet to turn and result in the rivet not being drilled through.

      • Prying the rivets with the drill may damage the rivet installation holes or drill bit.

      • Be careful of the drilled rivets, as they may be hot.

    4. Using a vacuum cleaner, remove the rivet fragments and shavings from the drilled areas.
