Changing the collet (Fig. C)
Some accessories require the use of different sized collets.
Collet sizes can be 1/8”, 3/32” and 1/16”. It is important to
ensure that the collet size matches the accessory.
Note: This tool includes the most commonly used collets:
1/8”, 3/32” and 1/16”.
Warning! Using a collet that is too large for the accessory
will result in the accessory possibly being thrown from
the tool causing serious injury.
a. Instruction on mounting of accessories and use
and care of abrasive products
b. Instruction on the use of all the different types of
wheels specified in the instructions, e.g. side
grinding, peripheral grinding
c. Instruction to properly support the workpiece
d. Instruction on proper handling of the tool
depending on the operation (one or two handed
control)
e. In case of cones or plugs with a threaded hole
intended to be mounted on a threaded mandrel,
critical dimensions and other data shall be given
in order to prevent the mandrel end from touching
the bottom of the hole of the abrasive product
f. Instruction that the maximum recommended
diameter of mounted wheels, threaded cones
and plugs shall not exceed 55 mm and that the
maximum recommended diameter of sanding
accessories shall not exceed 80 mm
1. Turn the tool switch OFF and remove the plug from
the power source.
2. Depress the spindle lock button (2) and slowly turn
the collet nut (3) until the spindle lock button locks
the spindle (Fig. C).
3. While holding the spindle lock button down, turn
the collet nut counter clockwise until it is removed.
4. Remove the collet (7) by pulling it out of the spindle.
5. Insert the replacement collet into the spindle
and replace the collet nut by turning it clockwise
while holding the spindle lock button down.
Note: Do not tighten the collet nut without an accessory
installed in the collet. You will damage the collet.
Installing accessories (Fig. D)
1. Turn the switch OFF and disconnect the tool from
the power source.
2. Depress the spindle lock button (2) and slowly turn
the collet nut (3) until the spindle lock button locks
the spindle (Fig. D).
3. While holding the spindle lock button down,
turn the collet nut counter- clockwise until the collet
is loose inside the collet nut.
4. Insert accessory (8) into collet.
Notes:
a. Make sure the correct collet is used for
the accessory. If collet is too large, replace
the collet with the next smaller size.
b. Insert accessory at least 3/4” into the collet.
5. Press the spindle lock button and engage it in
the spindle. While holding the spindle lock button
down, hand-tighten the collet by turning it clockwise.
Note: Do not use pliers to tighten the collet nut. Use
the small wrench supplied. Over tightening will cause
damage to the tool.
6. Pull on the accessory to ensure it is securely in place.
Connecting the flexible shaft to the tool (Fig. E)
The flexible shaft is designed to facilitate working in confined
spaces where otherwise using the rotary tool may be awkward.
Warning! Never bend the flexible shaft with a radius
of less than 6” when operating. Store the flexible shaft
in the designated compartment of the blow molded case
when not in use.
1. Remove umbrella nut (10) from the tool by turning it
