WARNING
Do not at any time let brake fl uids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can
damage, weaken or destroy plastic.
Electric tools used on fi berglass material, wallboard,
spackling compounds, or plaster are subject to acelerated
wear and possible premature failure, as the fi berglass chips
and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes,
commutators, etc. Consequently, we do not recommended
that this tool be used for extended work on these types
of materials. If, however, you do work with any of these
materials, it is extremely important that you clean the tool
frequently by blowing it with an air jet.
WARNING
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields during power tool operation or when blowing
dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a
suffi cient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of
the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no
further lubrication is required.
CUTTERS
Get faster and more accurate cutting results by keeping
cutters clean and sharp. Remove all accumulated pitch
and gum from cutters after each use.
When sharpening cutters, sharpen only the inside of the
cutting edge. Never grind the outside diameter. Be sure
when sharpening the end of a cutter to grind the clearance
angle the same as originally ground.
COLLET
Dust and chips may collect on the collet from time to time,
making it necessary to clean the collet. To do so, remove
the collet assembly and wipe it with a clean dry rag.
Clean the taper in the shaft in the same manner. Never
immerse the collet or end of the shaft in a solvent or in
water. Before replacing the collet assembly, put a drop of
motor oil on the inside of the nut, on the threads of the
shaft, and on the taper in the shaft. Replace the collet
assembly onto the shaft by hand only. Never tighten the
collet nut without a bit in the collet. This action could
permanently damage the collet.
