 Slide the spindle lock lever forward and rotate the shaft by
hand until the spindle lock engages the shaft, preventing
further rotation.
 With the spindle lock engaged, use the collet wrench to
loosen the collet nut, if necessary.

shank bottoms out, then pull it out 1/16 in. to allow for
expansion when the accessory gets hot.

DANGER:
If you are changing an accessory immediately after
use, be careful not to touch the collet, collet nut, or the
accessory with your hands or fingers. You will get burned
because of the heat build-up from cutting. Always use
the wrench provided.
OPERATION
USING MANDRELS
See Figures 6 - 7, pages 12 - 13.
The most common types of mandrel to use with this tool
include the standard mandrel which is used with cut-off
discs, grinding wheels, emery wheels, and cut-off wheels.
Screw mandrels are used with polishing wheels and polishing
drums. Drum mandrels are used with sanding drums.

 Press and hold the spindle lock.
 Insert the slot end of the provided wrench into the slot
on top of the mandrel and unscrew.
 Remove mandrel screw and washer.

 Align appropriate sized sanding drum over mandrel and
push down to completely cover drum end of mandrel.
NOTE: If necessary, tighten the screw on the drum
mandrel head to expand the drum and securely hold the
sanding drum in place.
BALANCING ACCESSORIES
For precision work, it is important that all accessories be
properly balanced. To balance an accessory, slightly loosen
the collet nut and give the accessory or collet a 1/4 in. turn.
You should be able to tell by the sound and feel if the accessory
is running in balance. Continue adjusting in this fashion until
the best balance is achieved. Replace accessories if they
become damaged or unbalanced.
SELECTING THE RIGHT SPEED
See Figure 8, page 13.
The rotary tool has a speed range of 5,000-34,000 RPM. To
select the right speed for each job, use a practice piece of
material. Vary speed to find the best speed for the accessory
you are using and the job to be done.
Use the speed control dial to set the best speed for the job.
When the dial is set to the maximum setting, approximately
34,000 RPM is achieved.
