• IMPORTANT! Be conservative with settings:
Use slower speeds as recommended in the table which follows.
Use multiple Passes, thus allowing the tool to work its way through the material. Set the SD by dividing
the ED by the number of Passes.
When performing the initial test, examine the results and, if you need to increase CD/ED, do so in
conservative increments.
• The following table is a summary of the settings used for the Force rotary tool. This is for your convenience
and should not preclude you from reviewing Section 2.03 for details regarding each setting.
