! WARNING

designed for this tool and may lead to personal injury or property damage.

 

The number and variety of accessories for the Rotary Tool are almost limitless. There is a category suited to almost any job you might have to do — and a variety of sizes and shapes within each category which enables you to get the perfect accessory for every need.

Refer to the DREMEL ACCESSORY ORDER FORM for illustrations of the accessories available. These accessories may be found at your local hardware, hobby or home center dealers.

Collets

If you expect to use a variety of accessories, we recommend that in the beginning you purchase a complete set of four collets. Store

these so that you will have the proper size of collet for any accessory or drill bit you want to use. Currently, the 1/8", 3/32",1/32" and 1/16" collets accommodate all of the avail - able Dremel accessories. 1/8" collets are included in most rotary tool kits.

Mandrels

A mandrel is a shank with a threaded or screw head, which are required when you use polishing accessories, cutting wheels, sanding discs, and polishing points. The reason mandrels are used is that sanding discs, cutting wheels and similar accessories must be replaced frequently. The mandrel is a per- manent shank, allowing you to replace only the worn head when necessary, thus saving the expense of replacing the shaft each time.
