After replacing brushes the tool should be run at no-load; place on a clean surface and run freely for 5 minutes before loading (or using) the tool. This will allow the brushes to “seat” properly and will give you more hours of life from each set of brushes. This will also extend the total life of your tool since the commutator surface will “wear” longer.

TOOL LUBRICATION

Your Dremel tool has been properly lubricated and is ready to use. Under normal use no additional lubrication is required.

Cleaning

To avoid accidents always ! WARNING disconnect the tool from the

power supply before cleaning or performing any maintenance. The tool may be cleaned most effectively with compressed dry air.

Always wear safety goggles when cleaning tools with compressed air.

Ventilation openings and switch levers must be kept clean and free of foreign matter. Do not attempt to clean by inserting pointed objects through openings.

! CAUTION	Certain cleaning agents and
	solvents damage plastic

parts. Some of these are: gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents that contain ammonia.

If an extension cord is ! WARNING necessary, a cord with

adequate size conductors that is capable of carrying the current necessary for your tool must be used. This will prevent excessive voltage drop, loss of power or overheating. Grounded tools must use 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong plugs and receptacles.

NOTE: The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Your Contour Sander can be equipped with an optional dust collection wand. This device is effective in sanding pad dust collection when used with a shop vacuum with hose dimensions of ID 1-1/2” or OD 1-3/8” or an appropriate adapter to fit (see diagram on page 31). When using the wand, be sure to align the sanding sheet holes with the holes in the sanding pad to allow the dust wand to function properly.

The detail pad (and optional shutter pad) can be used with hook/loop sandpaper with or without holes for dust collection. If you’ve

purchased sandpaper without holes, holes can be punched manually for use with the dust wand.

Using sandpaper with holes - while not using the dust wand - will not harm or damage your work. This sander will operate effectively with or without the dust collection system.

To order individual contours (below), or for additional information about the dust collection feature, call Dremel Customer Service @ 1-800-437-3635.
