ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROTARY TOOLS
6
DANGER! Keep hands away from the cutting area.
Never use the spindle lock when the machine is operating.
Make sure the collet diameter is the same as the shaft diameter of the accessory.
On / Off Switch
Your tool is supplied with an on / off switch, to turn the tool on depress the “I” on the
switch. To turn the tool off depress the “O” on the switch.
Variable Speed Wheel
The speed of the tool can be regulated by adjusting the variable speed wheel, for the
lowest speed adjust the dial to the number 1, for full speed adjust the dial to MAX.
Low Speed Use: Certain materials (some plastics) require a relatively low speed
because at high speed the friction of the tool generates heat and causes the plastic to
melt. Slow speeds are usually best for polishing applications and delicate projects such
as ‘eggery’ and fragile model parts.
High Speed Use: Higher speeds are better for carving and shaping timber. Metal and
glass projects require high speed and drilling should also be done at high speed.
Caution:
Placing excessive load on the rotary tool while it is running at low speeds
may cause it to overheat and the motor to fail.
Note:
Do not put the machine down while the motor is still running. Do not place the
machine on a dusty surface as dust particles may enter the machine.
Warning!
Disconnect the plug from the power source before assembling, making
any adjustments or changing accessories.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
To loosen the collet, first depress the spindle lock and rotate the shaft by hand until
the lock engages the shaft preventing further rotation.
Warning!
Do not engage the spindle lock while the rotary tool is running.
