Operating Instructions
Using the Rotary Tool
FIG.
Whenever you hold the
tool, be careful not to
cover the air vents with your hand. This blocks
the air flow and causes the motor to overheat.
For best control in close work, grip the
Rotary Tool like a pencil between your thumb
and forefinger (Figure A).
The "Golf Grip" method of holding the tool
can be used for more aggressive operations
such as grinding a flat surface or using cutoff
wheels (Figure B).
FIG. B
Practice on scrap materials first to see how
the Rotary Tool's high speed action performs.
Keep in mind that the work is done by the
speed of the tool and by the accessory in the
collet. You should not lean on or push the tool
during use.
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 little 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 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.
