How to use

Select an appropriate accessory for the intended task and secure it in the tool’s collet or attachment point according to the accessory instructions. Use the articulated 17 mm joint to orient the accessory at the required angle for access to tight areas; hold the tool with a steady grip and apply light, consistent pressure while operating at a suitable speed for the material. For cutting, grinding or polishing, move the tool steadily and avoid forcing the accessory to reduce the risk of damage to the workpiece or the tool. Keep the ventilation openings clear and follow the manufacturer's safety instructions for accessory mounting and operation.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and a dust mask when cutting or grinding. Choose accessories rated for the tool’s speed range and replace worn bits to maintain precision. For prolonged work, allow the tool to cool periodically to preserve motor life and check attachments regularly to ensure secure mounting.
