Use of the Power Tool
Do not alter or misuse the tool. Any alteration or modification is a misuse and may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before you make any adjustments, change acces-
sories, or store the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the laser tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
NOTICE
Use the power tools, accessories etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into ac-
count the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for opera-
tions different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation with high probability of su-
perficial injury.
NOTICE
Do not reach in the area of the rotating insertion tools. The proximity of the rotating tools to your
hand may not always be obvious.
NOTICE
Never use dull or damaged insertion tools. Sharp bits must be handled with care. Damaged
bits can snap during use. Dull bits require more force to cut the tool, possibly causing the bit to
break.
NOTICE
The speed and feed of the bit when carving, routing or cutting is very important. Always ob-
serve the speed and feed for the particular bit recommended.
If the workpiece or bit becomes jammed or bogged down, turn the power tool "OFF" by the
switch. Wait for all moving parts to stop and unplug the tool, then free the jammed material. If
the switch to the tool is left "ON", the tool could restart unexpectedly causing serious personal injury.
NOTICE
Do not leave a running tool unattended, turn power off. Only when tool comes to a complete
stop and is disconnected from the mains it is safe.
NOTICE
Do not touch the bit or collet after use. After usage bit and collet are too hot to be touched with
bare hands.
NOTICE
Clean the tool's air vents every four hours by using compressed air. Excessive accumulation of
powdered metal inside the motor housing may cause electrical failures.
NOTICE
Do not allow familiarity gained from frequent use of your rotary tool to become common-
place. Always remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.
When using the end mills, V-bits or cutters, always have the workpiece securely clamped.
Never attempt to hold the workpiece with your hands while using any accessories. These
tools can jam easily in the material, and can kickback, causing loss of control resulting in serious in-
jury.
Care of the Power Tools
NOTICE
Maintain the tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other conditions that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
NOTICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the laser tool is maintained.
