Wear protective gloves and face shield
with wire or bristle brushes. Apply wire or
bristle brushes lightly to the work as only
the tips of the wire/bristles do the work.
"Heavy" pressure on bristles will cause the
wire or bristle to become overstressed,
resulting in a wiping action and will cause the
bristles/wire to be discharged.
Carefully handle both the tool and
individual grinding wheels to avoid
chipping or cracking. Install a new wheel if
tool is dropped while grinding. Do not use
a wheel that may be damaged. Fragments
from a wheel that bursts during operation will
fly away at great velocity possibly striking you
or bystanders.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp bits
must be handled with care. Damaged bits
can snap during use. Dull bits require more
force to push the tool, possibly causing the bit
to break.
Use clamps to support workpiece
whenever practical. Never hold a small
workpiece in one hand and the tool in the
other hand while in use. Allow for
sufficient space, at least 6", between your
hand and the spinning bit. Round material
such as dowel rods, pipes or tubing have a
tendency to roll while being cut, and may
cause the bit to "bite" or jump toward you.
Clamping a small workpiece allows you to use
both hands to control the tool.
Inspect your workpiece before cutting.
When cutting
workpieces, plan your work so it will not
slip and pinch the bit and be torn from
your hand. For example, if carving wood,
make sure there are no nails or foreign objects
in the workpiece. Nails or foreign objects can
cause the bit to jump.
Never start the tool when the bit is
engaged in the material. The bit cutting
edge may grab the material causing loss of
control of the cutter.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel,
especially when working corners, sharp
edges etc. This can cause loss of control and
kick-back.
The direction of feed with the bit into the
material when carving, routing or cutting is
very important. Always feed the bit into

irregularly shaped
the material in the same direction as the
cutting edge is exiting from the material
(which is the same direction as the chips
are thrown). Feeding the tool in the wrong
direction, causes the cutting edge of the bit to
climb out of the work and pull the tool in the
direction of this feed.
If the workpiece or bit becomes jammed or
bogged down, turn the tool "OFF" by the
switch. Wait for all moving parts to stop
and unplug the tool, then work to free the
jammed material. If the switch to the tool is
left "ON" the tool could restart unexpectedly
causing serious personal injury.
Do not leave a running tool unattended,
turn power off. Only when tool comes to a
complete stop is it safe to put it down.
Do not grind or sand near flammable
materials. Sparks from the wheel could ignite
these materials.
Do not touch the bit or collet after use.
After use the bit and collet are too hot to be
touched by bare hands.
Regularly clean the tool's air vents by
compressed air. Excessive accumulation of
powdered metal inside the motor housing may
cause electrical failures.
Do not allow familiarity gained from
frequent use of your rotary tool to become
commonplace. Always remember that a
careless fraction of a second is sufficient to
inflict severe injury.
Do not alter or misuse tool. Any alteration or
modification is a misuse and may result in
serious personal injury.

applications. Serious personal injury may

When using the steel saws, cutoff wheels,
high speed cutters or tungsten carbide
cutters, always have the work securely
clamped. Never attempt to hold the work
with one hand while using any of these
accessories. The reason is that these wheels
will grab if they become slightly canted in the
groove, and can kickback causing loss of
control resulting in serious injury. Your second
hand should be used to steady and guide the
hand holding the tool. When a cutoff wheel
