Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Dremel SM20.

This tool was designed to tackle a wide variety of projects in and around the home. The Dremel SM20 completes tasks quicker and more efficiently than a series of other tools that would be needed to complete a job or project. This tool is also compact, ergonomic, and cuts virtually all common materials.

After using your new Dremel SM20 you’ll find that it is the right size tool to get projects done at just a fraction of the size of a traditional circular saw. With a full line of accessories the tool cuts through virtually any common material in the home- wood, plastic, metal, drywall and tile. The tool also features two cutting wheel positions, one position using a standard flat

wheel for all your typical straight cuts and a second position for making flush cuts along flooring or against a wall.

In addition to versatility, the Dremel SM20 provides excellent line of sight for confident, precise cuts so you will get accurate cuts the first attempt and avoid wasting time or material.
