accessory shank is gripped by the collet.
Avoid excessive tightening of the collet nut
when there is no bit inserted.
Installing and Removing Collets
Always use the collet which
matches the shank size of the
accessory you plan to use. Never force a
larger diameter shank into a collet.
Undersize
shanks will damage the collets and the
accessories will not run true.
Note:
Your Rotary Tool kit includes only the 1/8”
collet.
Four different size collets (see illustration), to
accommodate different shank sizes, are
available for your Rotary Tool.
To install a different collet (Fig. 5):
1. Remove the collet nut.
2. Remove the existing collet.
3. Insert the unslotted end of the new collet in
the hole in the end of the tool shaft.
4. Replace collet nut on the shaft.
Balancing Accessories
For precision work, it is important that all
accessories be in good balance (much the same
as the tires on your automobile). To true up or
balance an accessory, slightly loosen collet nut
and give the accessory or collet a 1/4 turn. Re
tighten collet nut and run the Rotary Tool. You
should be able to tell by the sound and feel if
your accessory is running in balance. Continue
adjusting in this fashion until best balance is
achieved.
CAUTION
!
