Safety Warnings for Wire Brush
Operation
a. Be aware that wire bristles are thrown by the brush even during ordinary operation.
Do not overstress the wires by applying excessive load to the brush. The wire bristles
can easily penetrate light clothing and/or skin.
b. Allow brushes to run at operating speed for at least one minute before using them.
During this time no one is to stand in front or in line with the brush. Loose bristles or
wires will be discharged during the run-in time.
c. Direct the discharge of the spinning wire brush away from you. Small particles and
tiny wire fragments may be discharged at high velocity during the use of these
brushes and may become imbedded in your skin.

Handling
• Hold the tool securely, keeping hands well away from rotating parts. For most purposes,
it is most convenient to grip the tool like a pen
• Practice using the tool with scrap material before starting a job. Be aware that different
accessories will require different techniques, and may require different speed settings
• Applying excess pressure does not result in faster or more efficient performance. If the
pressure applied to the tool has a noticeable effect on the speed of the tool then reduce
the pressure. Overloading the tool will reduce its service life
• Always ensure that material is secure. If appropriate use a vice or clamp to hold the work

Maintenance
WARNING: Ensure the tool is switched off and disconnected from the power supply, before

Cleaning
WARNING: ALWAYS wear protective equipment including eye protection and gloves when
cleaning this tool.
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly,
and shorten the device's service life
• Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts. If dry cleaning is not sufficient, a mild
detergent on a damp cloth is recommended

• Ensure the tool is thoroughly dry before using it
• If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes (where
applicable)
Maintaining the collet

order to provide secure hold of the inserted accessories. If properly maintained collets will
provide years of service.

clean thoroughly. Also remove swarf and dust from around the spindle and thread, using
a soft brush and/or compressed air
WARNING: DO NOT use sharp implements, such as pins or screwdrivers to remove
deposits from inside or around the Collet (8).
