If you are doing delicate woodcarving, polishing, buffing or any use which requires a wire brush, slow speeds of 15,000 RPM or less are best. Any material, like plas- tic, that melts at low temperatures should also be cut at low speeds.

If you are carving, routing, shaping or cutting glass, metal or hardwoods, higher speeds are necessary. Drilling should also be done at high speed.

Softer metals, like aluminium, copper alloys, and tin may be cut at various speeds, depending on the type of cutting being done. A lubricant like wax should be used on the cutter to keep the cut material from adhering to the cutter teeth.

If the tool is not performing the way you think it should, perhaps you are using the wrong accessory. Putting pressure on the tool will not help the performance.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Always UNPLUG the Rotary Tool from the power source before inspecting, performing any maintenance or cleaning.

This Rotary Tool is lubricated before it leaves

the factory. This lubrication should last for the life of the tool. No further lubrication is required.

Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the casing. Never immerse any part of the tool in a liquid. Always keep the ventila- tion openings clear.

Brushes will wear with use and should be inspected periodically by qualified personnel.

Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool using only a soft brush or dry cloth.

Never open the Rotary Tool case. Do not attempt to repair the Rotary Tool yourself. Opening the case will void your warranty.

ACCESSORIES

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.

Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets.

This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is prop- erly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry the amount of current necessary for your power tool. If not, your tool may experience a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord (see table below).
