ROTARY TOOL SAFETY RULES
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works.
SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING: Read and understand all warnings, cautions and operating instructions before using
this tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in personal injury and tool damage.
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
1. Keep the tool away from water. Do not expose the tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas can cause accidents. Do not work on floor
surfaces that are slippery with sawdust or wax.
4. Keep bystanders at a safe distance from the work area. Never allow children or pets near the tool.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
2. Use personal protective equipment:
• Always wear safety goggles at all times that comply with ANSI Z87.1.
• Use hearing protection such as plugs or muffs during extended periods of operation.
• Wear a face mask or dust mask to fight the dust produced by sanding operations.
3. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry (rings, watches, etc.) when operating the tool.
Inappropriate clothing and items can get caught in moving parts and draw you in. Always wear non-slip
footwear and tie back long hair.
4. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
WORKPIECE INSPECTION
1. Before operation, check the workpiece for any cracks, bumps, nails or obstructions.
2. Check the position of all electrical wiring before drilling into walls, floors or ceilings.
3. Do not cut any material that exceeds the rotary tool or the rotary tool bit’s operation capacity.
4. Use clamps to secure the workpiece whenever possible to prevent wobble, damage to the workpiece,
and personal injury.

ROTARY TOOL SAFETY RULES
ROTARY TOOL ACCESSORIES
1. The rotary tool accessory must have a rated speed higher than 25,000 RPM (the maximum operating
speed of your rotary tool), otherwise there is a risk of injury.
2. The spindle diameter of the accessory bit must match the size of the collet. The included collet size is
1/8 inch (3.2 mm); collets of other sizes may be purchased separately depending on the spindle diameter of
the accessory.
3. Inspect the accessories for any cracks, excess wear, or bent shanks. Do not use damaged accessories.
ROTARY TOOL OPERATION
1. Do not force the tool to do a job for which it was not designed. Use the correct power tool and accesso-
ries and follow the instructions for your application to prevent hazardous situations.
2. Before operation, check the tool for any damage or missing parts. Check for misalignment of moving
parts, jamming, breakage, improper mounting, or any other conditions that may affect the tool’s operation.
Do not use the tool if the power switch is faulty, the plug or cable is damaged, or the tool produces sparks
or smoke. Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced before use
3. Avoid accidental start-ups. Make sure the tool is OFF before installing batteries, making adjustments, pick-
ing up or carrying the tool.
4. Remove adjustment tools. Always make sure all adjustment tools or wrenches are removed from the tool
before turning on the power tool.
5. Set the suitable speed for your operation, workpiece and accessory. Use slow speeds for some plastics
and precious metals to prevent damaging the material.
6. Before turning on the rotary tool, ensure that it is completely clear of the workpiece. Let the tool reach
full speed before making contact with the workpiece.
7. When operating the rotary tool:
• Do not apply excessive pressure to the tool or attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing
the tool may cause kickback and damage the tool and accessories.
• Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory.
• Never touch any moving parts of the tool by hand.
• Never press in the spindle lock button when the rotary tool is running.
8. Never leave a running tool unattended. Do not leave the tool until it has come to a complete stop.
9. Clear the tool from the workpiece before switching off the tool. Wait for the rotary bit to come to a com-
plete stop before setting the tool down. Do not touch the accessory attachment immediately after operation,
as it may be very hot. Allow time for the accessory to cool and calm down before removing it.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities may
contain chemicals, including lead and wood dust, known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your expo-
sure to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area with approved safety equipment such as dust masks
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
ROTARY TOOL MAINTENANCE
1. Battery tools do not need to be plugged into an electrical outlet, therefore they are always ready to oper-
ate. Beware of the possible hazards when not using your battery tool or when changing accessories. Fol-
lowing this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or personal injury.
2. Always turn off the machine before making adjustments or changing attachments. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. Do not remove the attachment from the
tool until it has completely stopped rotating.
3. Maintain power tools properly. Safely store power tools out of the reach of children. Always keep tools
clean and in good working order.
4. Servicing of the tool should only be performed by an authorized service technician, using identical re-
placement parts.
REDUCING KICKBACK
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other
accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the
uncontrolled power tool to be jump toward or away from the operator, depending on direction of the wheel’s
movement at the point of pinching. Take proper safety prevention methods to reduce the risk of kickback:
• Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback
forces. Always use the auxiliary handle for maximum control over kickback or torque reaction during start-
up. The operator can control torque reactions or kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.
• Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessories may kick back over your hand.
• Do not position your body in the area where power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel
the tool in direction opposite to the wheel’s movement at the point of snagging.
• Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory.
Corners or sharp edges have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.

ROTARY TOOL SAFETY RULES
VIBRATION SAFETY
This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration may cause temporary or per-
manent physical injury, particularly to the hands, arms and shoulders. To reduce the risk of any vibration-
related injury:
1. First be examined by a doctor and then have regular medical check-ups to ensure medical problems are
not being caused or worsened from use. Pregnant women or people who have impaired blood circulation to
the hand, past hand injuries, nervous system disorders, diabetes, or Raynaud’s disease should not use this
tool.
2. If you feel any symptoms related to vibration (such as tingling, numbness, and white or blue fingers),
seek medical advice as soon as possible.
3. Do not smoke during use. Nicotine reduces the blood supply to the hands and fingers, increasing the risk
of vibration-related injury.
4. Wear suitable work gloves to reduce the effects of vibration. Hold the tool firmly enough to keep safe
control of it, but NOT too tightly. The risk associated with vibration is increased when the gripping force is
high. Let the tool do the work.
5. Take vibration-free breaks during each day of work.
7
These safety instructions can’t possibly warn of every scenario that may arise with this tool,
so always make sure to stay alert and use common sense during operation.
BATTERY SAFETY RULES
1. Do not mix batteries of different types or different brands. Do not mix old and new batteries.
2. Do not short circuit batteries. Do not touch the terminals with any conductive material. Avoid storing the
battery pack in a container with other metal objects such as nails, coins, etc. Always protect the battery ter-
minals when the battery pack is not in use. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or fire.
3. Do not keep batteries near fire, sources of heat, or use in direct sunlight.
4. Do not dismantle batteries.
5. Never handle leaked batteries. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery. Avoid
contact with this liquid like you would a fire or an ex-lover. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause ir-
ritation or burns. If contact accidentally occurs, flush the contact area with water. If the liquid contacts your
eyes, flush with water for 10 minutes and then seek medical help.
6. Remove the battery if the tool is not being used for an extended period of time.
7. Recycle used tool and batteries at your local recycling facility.

Carefully unpack the tool and accessories. Check all components and compare against the list below. If any
