INSTALLING/REMOVING ACCESSORIES
See Figures 2 - 3, pages 9
To install:
Remove the battery pack from the tool.
Choose an accessory that fits the collet and is suitable
for the application you are attempting.
Using your hand, rotate the clamp nut counterclockwise
to loosen.
NOTE:
If desired, the nut can be loosened with a
wrench. Place the wrench on the nut securely and turn
counterclockwise to loosen.
Insert the shank of the blade accessory into the center
of the clamp nut until the shank is secure.
Rotate the clamp nut clockwise until the blade is secure.
Avoid excess tightening of the clamp nut
NOTE:
If desired, the clamp nut can be tightened with a
wrench. Place the wrench on the hexed area of the nut
and turn clockwise to tighten.
To remove:
Remove the battery pack from the tool.
Loosen the clamp nut.
Remove the accessory.
DANGER:
If you are changing an accessory immediately after use,
be careful not to touch the collet or the accessory with
your hands or fingers. You will get burned because of
the heat build-up from operation. Always use the wrench
provided or allow the collet to cool.

See Figure 4, page 9.
To turn the power carver ON, slide the on/off switch to the

OFF position.
OPERATING THE POWER CARVER
See Figures 5 - 6, page 10.
Learning to use the power carver:
Hold the tool in your hand and get used to its weight,
balance, and the taper of the housing. This taper permits
the tool to be grasped like a pencil or in a “golf grip”
method.
Examine the power carver accessories carefully. Damaged
accessories can fly apart as they come up to speed and
should not be used. The use of damaged accessories
can result in serious personal injury.
Practice on scrap materials first to see how the tool
operates. Keep in mind that the work is done by the speed
of the tool and by the accessory in the collet. You should
not lean on or push the tool into the work.
