Getting the most out of your Cordless Rotary Tool is
a matter of learning how to let this speed work for
you.
Using the Cordless Rotary Tool
The first step in learning to use the Cordless Rotary Tool
is to get the "feel" of it. Hold it in your hand and feel its
weight and balance. Feel the taper of the housing. This
taper permits the tool to be grasped much like a pen or
pencil.
Practice on scrap materials first to see how the Cordless
Rotary Tool cuts. Keep in mind that the work is done by
For best control in close work, grip the Rotary Tool
like a pencil between your thumb and forefinger.
When you turn on the tool for
the first time, hold it away from
your face. Accessories can be
damaged during handling, and
can fly apart as they come up to
speed. This is not common, but
it does happen.
the speed of the tool and by the accessory in the collet.
You should not lean on or push the tool into the work.
Instead, lower the spinning accessory lightly to the
work and allow it to touch the point at which you want
cutting (or sanding or etching, etc.) to begin. Con -
centrate on guiding the tool over the work using very lit-
tle pressure from your hand. Allow the accessory to do
the work.
Usually, it is best to make a series of passes with the
tool rather than attempt to do all the work in one pass.
To make a cut, for example, pass the tool back and forth
over the work, much as you would a small paint brush.
Cut a little material on each pass until you reach the
desired depth. For most work, the deft, gentle touch is
best. With it, you have the best control, are less likely to
make errors, and will get the most effi cient work out of
the accessory.
The "handgrip" method of holding the tool is used for
operations such as grinding a flat surface or using
cutoff wheels.
