Application
This rotary tool can be used for drilling, grinding, sanding and polishing, as well as engraving,
cutting and removing rust in tight spaces or inaccessible places. The tool can be used on most
metals, glass, wood and ceramics. For best performance and results keep the speed as even as
possible without exercising too much pressure. As a guideline, use the tool at low speed for all
large accessories, such as polishing for example, and at high speed for smaller accessories such
as those used for engraving. For grinding and engraving, hold the tool as if it were a pen.
