Rotary Tool Proxxon GE 20 — corded rotary tool, AC powered, colours: black/green/silver

Proxxon GE 20 is a corded rotary tool designed for precision grinding, cutting, polishing and drilling on materials such as wood, metal and plastic. Supplied in black, green and silver finishes, this AC-powered handheld tool is intended for hobbyists and light workshop tasks where a stable mains-powered rotary tool is preferred. The compact design supports fine work including engraving letters, numbers and individual shapes in metal, plastic, glass or stoneware, and is suitable for name plates, jewellery and other small-value objects.

How to use

Connect the Proxxon GE 20 to a suitable AC supply and fit the appropriate accessory for the intended operation (engraving, cutting, grinding or drilling). Secure the workpiece on the movable guide block using compatible clamping jaws or a vice. For template-guided engraving, mount the template in the guide bar and fasten the lettering pattern (up to 14 characters). Set the transfer ratio by adjusting the two screws to the required scale (2:1, 3:1, 4:1 or 5:1). Follow the template contours with the guide marker while operating the rotary tool at a suitable speed and applying light, steady pressure.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate cutting, grinding or engraving bits rated for the material you are processing. Ensure the workpiece is firmly clamped before use and wear suitable eye and respiratory protection when working with metal, glass or stoneware. For best results when engraving small characters or detailed shapes, use slow steady movements and check fitment of the template and guide marker before milling.
