3 “side to side” lights – battery charge is too low to run tool.
Recharge the battery.
3 “flashing” lights – battery is too hot for use. Turn tool off and
let battery cool down.
Your tool is equipped with advanced electronics that protect
the Li-Ion cells in the battery from damage due to excessive
operating temperature and/or current draw. If the warning
symbol illuminates red and/or the tool stops working during
heavy use, this most likely indicates that the Li-Ion cells are
near their maximum operating temperature, and the battery
pack should either be changed or allowed to cool to ambient
temperature before continuing use. If the tool automatically turns
off due to overload conditions, the switch must be turned off for
a few seconds to allow the circuit to reset before continuing use.
IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
1. The charger was designed to fast charge the battery only
when the battery temperature is between 32°F (0°C) and
113°F (45°C). If the battery pack is too hot or too cold, the
charger will not fast charge the battery. (This may happen
if the battery pack is hot from heavy use). When the battery
temperature returns to between 32°F (0°C) and 113°F
(45°C), the charger will automatically begin charging.
2. A substantial drop in operating time per charge may mean
that the battery pack is nearing the end of its life and
should be replaced.
3. Remember to unplug charger during storage period.
NOTE: Use of chargers or battery packs not sold by Dremel will
void the warranty.
CHARGING BATTERY PACK (MODEL 875)
Plug charger cord into your standard power outlet.
With no battery pack inserted, the charger’s green indicator light
will go ON. This indicates the charger is receiving power and the
charger is ready for operation.
When you insert the battery pack into the charger, the charger’s
green indicator light will begin to “BLINK”. This indicates that the
battery is receiving a fast charge.

C. Green light
When the indicator light stops “BLINKING” (and becomes a
steady green light) fast charging is complete. The battery pack is
fully charged and can be removed from the charger.
When you begin the charging process of the battery pack, a
steady green light could also mean the battery pack is too hot
or too cold.
Fast charging is only possible when the temperature range of
the battery pack is between 0°C and 45°C.
When needed, the internal fan of the charger will turn on to aid
the charging process and speed.
As soon as the battery pack reaches the correct temperature
range, the battery charger will automatically switch to fast
charging.
The battery pack may be used even though the light may still
be blinking. The light may require more time to stop blinking
depending on temperature.
The purpose of the green light is to indicate that the battery
pack is fast-charging. It does not indicate the exact point of full
charge. The light will stop blinking in less time if the battery
pack was not completely discharged.
If the green indicator light is “ON”, the battery pack cannot
accept a charge.

INSTALLING AND REMOVING ACCESSORIES
NOTE: Be sure to read the instructions supplied with your Dremel
accessory for further information on its use.
Use only Dremel tested, high performance accessories.
Dremel cutting, scraper blades have a Quick-Fit slot which
allows for faster accessory removal compared with other
conventional oscillating tool systems.
1. Loosen the clamping screw using the hex key provided
just enough so you can slide the accessory between the
accessory holder and the blade washer (Picture 2).

2. Clean accessory holder, accessory and the clamping screw
with a clean cloth.
3. Place the accessory onto the accessory holder making
sure the accessory engages all pins in the holder and the
accessory is flush against the accessory holder.
4. Securely tighten the clamping screw with the hex provided
(Picture 3).

NOTE: Some accessories, such as scrapers or blades, may be
mounted either straight on the tool, or at an angle to enhance
usability (Picture 4).

INSTALLING AND REMOVING SANDING SHEETS
Your backing pad uses hook-and-loop backed accessories,
which firmly grip the backing pad when applied with moderate
pressure.
1. Align the sanding sheet and press it onto the sanding plate
by hand.
2. Firmly press the power tool with the sanding sheet against
a flat surface and briefly switch the power tool on. This will
promote good adhesion and helps to prevent premature
wear.
3. To change, merely peel off the old sanding sheet, remove
dust from the backing pad if necessary, and press the new
sanding sheet in place.
After considerable service the backing pad surface will become
worn, and the backing pad must be replaced when it no longer
offers a firm grip. If you are experiencing premature wear out
of the backing pad facing, decrease the amount of pressure you
are applying during operation of the tool.
For maximum use of abrasive, rotate pad 120 degrees when tip
of abrasive becomes worn.
DUST ExTRACTION
Your tool can be equipped with a dust port with adaptor for dust
extraction (Picture 5). To use this feature, attach the dust port to
the tool (A) and attach vacuum cleaner to the adapter (B).
USE
GETTING STARTED
The first step in learning to use the tool is to get the “feel” of it.
Hold it in your hand and feel its weight and balance (Picture 6).
Depending on the application, you will need to adjust your hand
position to achieve optimum comfort and control.
When holding the tool, do not cover the air vents with your hand.
Blocking the air vents could cause the motor to overheat.
