COLLET
-- To loosen,
first press shaft lock
button
and rotate the shaft by hand until the
lock engages the shaft preventing
further
rotation.
Do not engage
lock while
the Rotary Tool is running.
With the shaft lock engaged
use the collet
wrench to loosen the collet nut if necessary.
Change
accessories
by inserting
the new
one into the collet as far as possible
to
minimize
runout and unbalance.
With the
shaft lock engaged,
finger tighten
the collet
nut until the accessory
shank is gripped
by
the collet. Avoid excessive tightening
of the
collet nut. The collet system is a superior
method
of securing
accessories.
COLLETS
-- Two different
size collets (see
illustration),
to accommodate
different
shank
sizes, are available for your Rotary Tool. To
install a different
collet, remove the collet nut
and remove the old collet. Insert the
unslotted
end of the collet in the hole in the
end of the tool shaft. Replace collet nut on
the shaft. Always
use the collet which
matches
the shank size of the accessory
you plan to use. Never force a larger
diameter
shank into a collet.
BALANCING
ACCESSORIES
-- For
precision
work, it is important
that all
accessories
be in good balance (much the
same as the tires on your automobile).
To
true up or balance
an accessory,
slightly
loosen collet nut and give the accessory

collet a 1/4 turn. Retighten
collet nut and run
the Rotary Tool. You should be able to tell
by the sound and feel if your accessory
is
running in balance. Continue
adjusting
in this
fashion
until best balance
is achieved.
To
maintain
balance on abrasive wheel points,
before each use, with the wheel point
secured
in the collet, turn on the Rotary Tool
and run the Dressing
Stone lightly against
the revolving wheel point. This removes high
spots and trues up the wheel point for good
balance.
The hanger is provided for the use of
hanging your tool while using the flex-shaft
or for storage. If you do not use the hanger,
remove it from the tool and snap it back into
place underneath
the cord so it will be out of
the way while the tool is in use.
Remember,
your new Craftsman
Rotary Tool
is the finest power tool of its kind. But its
performance
is only as good as the
accessories
with which it is used.
We recommend
only Craftsman
accessories
be used. Use of any other
accessories
may create a hazard. We hope
you'll enjoy many years of trouble free
pleasure from your Sears Craftsman
Rotary
Power Toot.
