engraver point, loosen the set screw
and remove the engraver point (figure
1). Replacement engraver points may
be purchased from your Dremel dealer
or direct from the factory.
2. Before plugging in the tool, be cer-
tain that the outlet voltage you are
using matches the voltage number
marked on the back label (name plate
label) that is located on the engraver.
3. To use the engraver, turn the
engraver “on” by moving the on/off
switch located at the end of the tool
(figure 2). Hold the engraver at a slight
angle as you
would normally
hold a pencil.
Hold the unit
lightly while rest-
ing your arm
comfortably on a
table. Do not press down hard while
engraving. Use a light touch guiding
the point over the work somewhat
slower than you would normally write.
4. The adjusting knob on the side of
the engraver housing controls the
stroke length and therefore the depth
of engraving (Figure 3). It is not
intended to be
used as an “OFF”
switch. A good
“rule of thumb” is
to select the low-
est setting which
will produce a
deep enough engraving mark to meet
your requirements. To familiarize your-
self, experiment with different settings
on scrap materials.
NOTE:
The “lowest” position of the
adjusting knob will be with the knob
pointing to the number “1” on the
