OPERATION

OPERATING THE ROTARY TOOL

As with all power equipment, a rotary tool can be dangerous if it is not assembled or used properly. Do not operate 
this power tool if you have doubts or questions regarding operation safety. Call our customer service department at 
1-800-232-1195 M-F 8-5 CST to address your questions or concerns.

WARNING: 

Always wear safety glasses, safety gloves, safety shoes and suitable work clothing when op-

erating this rotary tool. Do not wear jewelry, neckties or other loose clothing which could get caught in 
moving parts.

WARNING:

 Do not start or operate this tool in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.

1. Inspect the tool for any damage before use. Immediately discard any accessories with bent shafts or other signifi-
cant damage. Make sure that the ventilation slots are not obstructed; failure to keep them clear may cause the tool 
to overheat.

2. The power switch is located on the underside of the handle. It has O (OFF) and I (ON) settings. 

• To switch on the tool, flip it to I (the ON position). 
• To switch off the tool, simply flip the switch to O (the OFF position). Be certain the tool is in the OFF position 
when not in use and during all maintenance activities.

3. Do not exert excessive pressure on your tool as it may damage your workpiece and the tool bit.

4. For milling and engraving operations, holding the rotary tool like a pen will yield better control. For heavier work 
like drilling, holding the tool like a hammer will yield better results. 

5. Use the correct rotary bits for the job, and use the included dressing stone to sharpen or shape any attachments 
dulled by repeated use.

WARNING:

 Read and thoroughly understand all instructions and safety information before operating 

this rotary tool. Failure to do so may cause serious injury. 

ADJUSTING THE SPEED OF THE ROTARY TOOL (Fig. 12)

The variable speed adjustment dial on the top of the rotary tool is used to set 
the desired rotation speed. The speed for your rotary tool ranges from 10,000 
to 32,000 RPM. To increase the speed, turn the wheel forward to a higher num-
ber. To decrease speed, turn the wheel backwards to a lower number.

Set the suitable speed for your operation, workpiece and accessory:

• Use slow speeds for plastics, ceramics, precious metals and low-melting point materials to prevent damaging the 
material. All brushing applications and delicate polishing require slow rotary speeds at 15,000 RPM or less.

• Use higher speeds wood, metal and glass. Drilling, carving, cutting, routing, shaping or rabbets are generally 
performed more efficiently at faster rotary speeds. 

As a general rule, larger attachments should be used at a lower speed. The best way to determine the suitable speed 
is to test on a scrap piece of similar material, observe the results and adjust the speed accordingly.
