Grout Removal Kit 568
The #568 grout removal attachment comes completely assembled and ready to use. Use the #569 (1/16") bit for tiles spaced more than 1/16" apart. If your tiles are spaced more than 1/8" apart, it is recommended that you use the #570 (1/8") bit.
Note: If the bit is too wide for the spacing between your tiles, you may damage your tile or the grout removal bit.
Step 1: Remove the housing cap from the tool.
Step 2: Insert the grout removal bit into your rotary tool.
!When inserting the #569 or #570 CAUTION grout removal bit into your
Dremel rotary tool, be sure that the bit is secure within the “jaws” of the collet. Use the wrench to tighten the collet nut to prevent the bit from loosening within the collet. Do not use your Dremel Chuck, #4486, with the grout removal bits.
Step 3: Screw the grout removal attachment onto the rotary tool.
Step 4: Adjust the attachment and bit to the desired cutting depth.
Grout Removal Attachment Cutting Depth Adjustment
The Multi Slide Depth Adjustment has increment markings of 1/8" (3,2 mm). These markings are for reference only in identifying the depth of your desired cut. The multiple channels of the depth adjustment let you choose the orientation of the attachment to the tool. Be sure to securely tighten the screw within one of the multiple channel positions.
To set cutting depth:
Cleaning Grout:
Do not remove grout more than 1/8" below the face surface of the tile. Adjust the Multi Slide Depth Adjustment and bit so that no more than 1/8" of the bit extends beyond the base of the attachment.

After removing 1/8" of grout, regrout to tile level. Seal the new grout.

Removing Grout to Replace A Broken Tile:
Remove all of the grout surrounding the broken tile. Adjust the Multi Slide Depth Adjustment so that no more than 1/8" of the bit extends beyond the base of the attachment. See Figure 5. Remove grout at a depth no more than 1/8" at a time. You may need to adjust the Multi Slide Depth Adjustment by 1/8" increments (reference the 1/8" incremental white markings on the Multi Slide Depth Adjustment) and make several passes until all the grout is removed.
When removing grout deeper into the grout line, you may strike hidden objects like screw heads, mortar, tile cement or nails that may cause the bit to bind, overheat or break. Reduce the tool speed and work through it slowly, making several passes. In case of screws or nails, remove the grout around the area as the bit will not cut through them.
