Allow brushes to run at operating speed
for at least one minute before using
wheel. 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.
Wire and bristle brushes must never be
operated at speeds greater than
15,000/min. 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
"cleaning" action with these brushes and
may become imbedded in your skin.
Bristles or wires will be discharged from the
brush at high speeds.
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 rol! 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 irregularly shaped
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 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 perspnal
injury.
Do not leave a running tool unattended,
turn power off. Only when tool comes to a
complete stop it is 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.
This product is not intended for use as a
dental drill, in human or veterinary
medical applications. Serious personal
injury may result.
