Speed adjusting dial
1
011835
The tool speed can be changed by turning the speed
adjusting dial to a given number setting from 1 to 6.
Higher speed is obtained when the dial is turned in the
direction of number 6. And lower speed is obtained when it
is turned in the direction of number 1.
This allows the ideal speed to be selected for optimum
material processing, i.e. the speed can be correctly
adjusted to suit the material and bit diameter.
Refer to the table for the relationship between the number
settings on the dial and the approximate tool speed.

CAUTION:
If the tool is operated continuously at low speeds
•
for a long time, the motor will get overloaded,
resulting in tool malfunction.

as 6 and back to 1. Do not force it past 6 or 1, or
the speed adjusting function may no longer work.

CAUTION:
Do not tighten the collet nut without inserting a bit,
•
or the collet cone will break.
Use only the wrenches provided with the tool.
•
Insert the bit all the way into the collet cone and tighten
the collet nut securely with the two wrenches or by
pressing the shaft lock and using the provided wrench.
To remove the bit, follow the installation procedure in reverse.
OPERATION
Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without the
bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait
until the bit attains full speed. Move the tool forward over
the workpiece surface, keeping the tool base flush and
advancing smoothly until the cutting is complete.
When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should
be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction.
