PRACTICAL TIPS & SAFETY ADVICE
Here are some useful tips on how to get the most out of your Picote system. Always
use the recommended tools for maintenance to avoid personal injury.
Always inspect the outer casing before each
use. Easiest and safest way to shorten the
outer casing to the correct length is using
sheath cutter. Only the needed amount of
bare shaft should be exposed in all times.
CUTTING THE OUTER CASING
SHAFT ROUNDER
The shaft rounder smooth's the
end of the flexible shaft, preventing
the user from being cut by the oth-
erwise sharp metal edge .
Feed the shaft through the socket to the
end and
securely fasten
. The outer casing
should reach all the way to the base of
the shaft socket to protect the shaft.
ATTACHING A SHAFT SOCKET
Always inspect the flexible shaft before each
use. If there are potential weak points or the
shaft is damaged, cut off the damaged length
using a band saw.
