Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
Work Area
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
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.
Keep by-standers, children, and visitors away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
Electrical Safety
Double Insulated tools are equipped with a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in
any way. Double Insulation eliminates the need for
the three wire grounded power cord and grounded
power supply system. Before plugging in the tool, be
certain the outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage
marked on the nameplate. Do not use “AC only” rated
tools with a DC power supply.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded. If operating the power tool in damp locations
is unavoidable, a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter must
be used to supply the power to your tool. Electrician’s
rubber gloves and footwear will further enhance your
personal safety.
Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the
tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace
damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor
extension cord marked "W-A" or "W." These cords are
rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric
shock. Refer to “Recommended sizes of Extension
Cords” in the Accessory section of this manual.
Personal Safety
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool
while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or
long hair can be caught in moving parts. Keep handles
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is “OFF”
before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on
the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch
“ON” invites accidents.
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the
tool “ON”. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a
rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. Proper footing and balance enables better
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
Tool Use and Care
Use clamps or other practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the work by hand or against your body is unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your
application. The correct tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it is designed.
Do not use tool if switch does not turn it “ON” or
“OFF”. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and
clean. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Any alteration or modification is a misuse and may
result in a dangerous condition.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may
affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained tools. Develop a periodic
maintenance schedule for your tool.

DM 2610935540 01-07 1/17/07 4:06 PM Page 3
Use only accessories that are recommended by the
manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be
suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when
used on another tool.
Service
Tool service must be performed only by qualified
repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury. For
example: internal wires may be misplaced or pinched,
safety guard return springs may be improperly
mounted.
Safety Rules for Rotary Tools
Accessories must be rated for at least the speed
recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels
and other accessories running over rated speed can
fly apart and cause injury.
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with
a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool
"live" and shock the operator. If cutting into existing
walls or other blind areas where electrical wiring may
exist is unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit
breakers feeding this worksite.
Do not operate the flexible shaft with a sharp bend.
Over bending the shaft can generate excessive heat
on the jacket or hand piece. The recommended
minimum is 6" radius.
Always disconnect the power cord from the power
source before making any adjustments or attaching
any accessories. You may unexpectedly cause the
tool to start leading to serious personal injury.
Be aware of the switch location, when placing the
tool down or when picking the tool up. You may
accidentally activate the switch.
Always hold the hand piece firmly in your hands
during the start-up. The reaction torque of the motor,
as it accelerates to full speed, can cause the shaft to
twist.
Always wear safety goggles and dust mask. Use
only in well ventilated area. Using personal safety
devices and working in safe environment reduces risk
.
y
of injur
After changing the bits or making any adjustments,
make sure the collet nut and any other adjustment
devices are securely tightened. Loose adjustment
device can unexpectedly shift, causing loss of control,
loose rotating components will be violently thrown.
Do not reach in the area of the spinning bit. The
proximity of the spinning bit to your hand may not
always be obvious.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement
parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section
of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of
electric shock or injury. Certain cleaning agents such as
gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may
damage plastic parts.
Allow brushes to run at operating speed for at least
one minute before using wheel. During this time no
one is to stand in front or in line with the brush.
Loose bristles or wires will be discharged during the
run-in time.
Wire and bristle brushes must never be operated at
speeds greater than 15,000/min. Direct the
discharge of the spinning wire brush away from
you. Small particles and tiny wire fragments may be
discharged at high velocity during the “cleaning”
action with these brushes and may become imbedded
in your skin. Bristles or wires will be discharged from
the brush at high speeds.
Wear protective gloves and face shield with wire or
bristle brushes. Apply wire or bristle brushes lightly
to the work as only the tips of the wire/bristles do
the work. “Heavy” pressure on bristles will cause the
wire or bristle to become overstressed, resulting in a
wiping action and will cause the bristles/wire to be
discharged.
Carefully handle both the tool and individual
grinding wheels to avoid chipping or cracking.
Install a new wheel if tool is dropped while
grinding. Do not use a wheel that may be damaged.
Fragments from a wheel that bursts during operation
will fly away at great velocity possibly striking you or
bystanders.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp bits must be
handled with care. Damaged bits can snap during
use. Dull bits require more force to push the tool,
possibly causing the bit to break.
Use clamps to support workpiece whenever
practical. Never hold a small workpiece in one hand
and the tool in the other hand while in use. Allow
for sufficient space, at least 6", between your hand
and the spinning bit. Round material such as dowel
rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency to roll while
being cut, and may cause the bit to “bite” or jump
toward you. Clamping a small workpiece allows you
to use both hands to control the tool.

Safety Rules for Rotary Tools - (cont.)
Inspect your workpiece before cutting. When cutting
irregularly shaped workpieces, plan your work so it
will not slip and pinch the bit and be torn from your
hand. For example, if carving wood, make sure there
are no nails or foreign objects in the workpiece. Nails
or foreign objects can cause the bit to jump.
Never start the tool when the bit is engaged in the
material. The bit cutting edge may grab the material
causing loss of control of the cutter.
Avoid bouncing and snagging the wheel, especially
when working corners, sharp edges etc. This can
cause loss of control and kick-back.
The direction of feed with the bit into the material
when carving, routing or cutting is very important.
Always feed the bit into the material in the same
direction as the cutting edge is exiting from the
material (which is the same direction as the chips
are thrown). Feeding the tool in the wrong direction,
causes the cutting edge of the bit to climb out of the
work and pull the tool in the direction of this feed.
If the workpiece or bit becomes jammed or bogged
down, turn the tool “OFF” by the switch. Wait for
all moving parts to stop and unplug the tool, then
work to free the jammed material. If the switch to
the tool is left “ON” the tool could restart
unexpectedly causing serious personal injury.
Do not leave a running tool unattended, turn power
off. Only when tool comes to a complete stop it is
safe to put it down.
Do not grind or sand near flammable materials.
Sparks from the wheel could ignite these materials.
Do not touch the bit or collet after use. After use the
bit and collet are too hot to be touched by bare hands.
Regularly clean the tool's air vents by compressed
air. Excessive accumulation of powdered metal inside
the motor housing may cause electrical failures.
Do not allow familiarity gained from frequent use of
your rotary tool to become commonplace. Always
remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict severe injury.
Do not alter or misuse tool. Any alteration or
modification is a misuse and may result in serious
personal injury.
This product is not intended for use as a dental
drill, in human or veterinary medical applications.
Serious personal injury may result.
When using the steel saws, cutoff wheels, high
speed cutters or tungsten carbide cutters, always
have the work securely clamped. Never attempt to
hold the work with one hand while using any of
these accessories. The reason is that these wheels
will grab if they become slightly canted in the groove,
and can kickback causing loss of control resulting in
serious injury. Your second hand should be used to
steady and guide the hand holding the tool. When a
cutoff wheel grabs, the wheel itself usually breaks.
When the steel saw, high speed cutters or tungsten
carbide cutter grab, it may jump from the groove and
you could lose control of the tool.

Operating Instructions
The Rotary Tool is a handful of high-speed power. It
serves as a carver, grinder, polisher, sander, cutter,
power brush, drill and more.
The Rotary Tool has a small, powerful electric
universal motor, is comfortable in the hand, and is
made to accept a large variety of accessories
including abrasive wheels, drill bits, wire brushes,
polishers, engraving cutters, router bits, cutting
wheels and attachments. Accessories come in a
variety of shapes and permit you to do a number of
different jobs. As you become familiar with the range
of accessories and their uses, you will learn just how
versatile the Rotary Tool is. You’ll see dozens of uses
you hadn’t thought of before.
The real secret of the Rotary Tool is its speed. To
understand the advantages of its high speed, you
have to know that the standard portable electric drill
runs at speeds up to 2,800 revolutions per minute.
The Rotary Tool operates at speeds up to 35,000
revolutions per minute. The typical electric drill is a
low-speed, high torque tool; the Rotary Tool is just
the opposite – a high-speed, low torque tool. The
major difference to the user is that in the high speed
tools, the speed combined with the accessory
mounted in the collet does the work. You don’t apply
pressure to the tool, but simply hold and guide it. In
the low speed tools, you not only guide the tool, but
also apply pressure to it, as you do, for example,
when drilling a hole.
It is this high speed, along with its compact size and
wide variety of special accessories and attachments,
that makes the Rotary Tool different from other tools.
The speed enables it to do jobs low speed tools
cannot do, such as cutting hardened steel, engraving
glass, etc.
periods of time. Overloading the chuck may cause the
bit to loosen and slip. It is recommended that in these
types of applications that the bit be secured in the
chuck with the supplied wrench and work in intervals
to allow cooling of the bit and chuck. If the bit slips
the tool will begin to vibrate excessively, this is an
indication that you should shut the tool off, reposition and tighten the bit then allow the tool to run
no-load for a few minutes to cool.
The chuck should be cleaned occasionally to keep it
functioning properly. Simply remove the chuck from
the tool and gently tap the tip of the chuck on a fat
surface to remove any loose debris. In some
applications the keyless chuck may tighten up during
use. If this occurs, gently loosen using the wrench
included in your rotary tool kit.

The first step in learning to use the Rotary Tool is to
get the “feel” of it. Hold it in your hand and feel its
weight and balance. Feel the taper of the housing.
This taper permits the Rotary Tool to be grasped
much like a pen or pencil. The F013039519. Variable
Speed tool has a unique comfort grip on the nose and
back seating, which allows the user added comfort
and control during use. You can feel the difference!
Always hold the tool away from your face.
Accessories can be damaged during handling, and
can fly apart as they come up to speed. This is not
common, but it does happen.
Practice on scrap materials first to see how the
Rotary Tool's high speed action performs. Keep in
mind that the work is done by the speed of the tool
and by the accessory in the collet. You should not
lean on or push the tool during use.

or check our website at www
Instead, lower the spinning accessory lightly to the
work and allow it to touch the point at which you want
cutting (or sanding or etching, etc.) to begin. Concentrate on guiding the tool over the work using very
little pressure from your hand. Allow the accessory to
do the work.
Usually, it is best to make a series of passes with the
tool rather than attempt to do all the work in one
pass. To make a cut, for example, pass the tool back
and forth over the work, much as you would a small
paint brush. Cut a little material on each pass until
you reach the desired depth. For most work, the
gentle touch is best. With it, you have the best
control, are less likely to make errors, and will get the
most efficient work out of the accessory.

Operating Speeds
To select the right speed for each job, use a practice
piece of material. Vary speed to find the best speed
for the accessory you are using and the job to be
done.
NOTE: Speed is affected by voltage changes. A
reduced incoming voltage will slow the RPM of the
tool, especially at the lowest setting. If your tool
appears to be running slowly increase the speed
setting accordingly. The tool may not start at switch
position #1 in those areas where outlet voltage is
less than 120 volts. Simply move the switch lever to
a higher position to begin operation.
On the variable speed model, there are switch setting
indicators marked with a line. Slide to the number on
the housing to select the operating speed needed
from 5,000 – 35,000 RPM. You can refer to the
charts on page 24, 25, and 26 to determine the
proper speed, based on the material being worked
and the type of accessory being used. These charts
enable you to select both the correct accessory and
the optimum speed at a glance.
Needs for Slower Speeds
Certain materials, however, (some plastics and
precious metals, for example) require a relatively slow
speed because at high speed the friction of the
accessory generates heat and may cause damage to
the material.
Slow speeds (15,000 RPM or less) usually are best
for polishing operations employing the felt polishing
accessories. They may also be best for working on
delicate projects as “eggery” work, delicate wood
carving and fragile model parts. (All brushing
applications require lower speeds to avoid wire
discharge from the holder.) No greater than speed
setting 4 for the model F013039519.
Higher speeds are better for carving, cutting, routing,
shaping, cutting dadoes or rabbets in wood.
Hardwoods, metals and glass require high speed
operation, and drilling should also be done at high
speeds.

Operating Speeds - (Cont.)
The point to remember is this: You can do the great
majority of work with the single speed at its regular
speed of 35,000 RPM. But for certain materials and
types of work, you need slower speeds — which is the
reason the variable speed models and the speed
control units are available.
To aid you in determining the optimum operational
speed for different materials and different accessories,
we have constructed a series of tables that appear on
page 24, 25 and 26. By referring to these tables, you
can discover the recommended speeds for each type
of accessory. Look these tables over and become
familiar with them.
Ultimately, the best way to determine the correct speed
for work on any material is to practice for a few
minutes on a piece of scrap, even after referring to the
chart. You can quickly learn that a slower or faster
speed is more effective just by observing what happens
as you make a pass or two at different speeds. When
working with plastic, for example, start at a slow rate of
speed and increase the speed until you observe that the
plastic is melting at the point of contact. Then reduce
the speed slightly to get the optimum working speed.
Some rules of thumb in regard to speed:
1. Plastic and other materials that melt at low
temperatures should be cut at low speeds.
2. Polishing, buffing and cleaning with a wire brush
must be done at speeds not greater than 15,000
RPM to prevent damage to the brush.
3. Wood should be cut at high speed.
4. Iron or steel should be cut at high speed. If a high
speed steel cutter starts to chatter — this normally
means it is running too slow.
5. Aluminum, copper alloys, lead alloys, zinc alloys
and tin may be cut at various speeds, depending on
the type of cutting being done. Use paraffin or other
suitable lubricant on the cutter to prevent the cut
material from adhering to the cutter teeth.
Increasing the pressure on the tool is not the answer
when it is not performing as you think it should.
Perhaps you should be using a different accessory, and
perhaps an adjustment in speed would solve the
problem. Leaning on the tool does not help.

Disengagement of the Flex-Shaft
The flexible shaft may become disengaged if the
motor of your rotary tool is not elevated higher than
the working end of the flex-shaft. The #2222 Rotary
Tool Stand is recommended to hold the rotary tool at
the proper height.
Collet and Accessory Assembly
The collet assembly consists of a collet nut and collet.
Take the collet nut and collet that were removed from
your tool in step 2 and 3 and insert them into the tip
of the flex-shaft handpiece.
Insert an accessory or bit as deeply as possible to
avoid wobble during use. With the shaft lock button
engaged on the flex-shaft handpiece retighten the
collet nut.
Collet Removal and Replacement
Four different size collets to accommodate different
shank sizes, are sold separately for your flex-shaft. To
install a different collet, remove the collet nut and
remove the old collet. Insert the unslotted end of the
collet in the hole in the end of the flex-shaft. Replace
collet nut on the shaft. Always use the collet which
matches the shank size of the accessory you plan to
use. Never force a larger diameter shank into a collet.
FLEXIBLE SHAFT LUBRICATION — The flexible shaft
should be lubricated after every 25-30 hours of use.
To lubricate, unscrew the flexible shaft assembly from
the motor housing. Pull the center core out of the
flexible shaft assembly. Wipe a very thin film of a
good quality, high temperature grease on to the center

The #568 grout removal attachment comes
completely assembled and ready to use. Use the #569
(1/16") bit for tiles spaced more than 1/16" apart. If
your tiles are spaced more than 1/8" apart, it is
recommended that you use the #570 (1/8") bit.
Note: If the bit is too wide for the spacing between
your tiles, you may damage your tile or the grout
removal bit.
Step 1: Remove the housing cap from the tool.
Step 2: Insert the grout removal bit into your rotary
tool.
CAUTION
!
Dremel rotary tool, be sure that the bit is secure
within the “jaws” of the collet. Use the wrench to
tighten the collet nut to prevent the bit from loosening
within the collet. Do not use your Dremel Chuck,
#4486, with the grout removal bits.
Step 3: Screw the grout removal attachment onto the
rotary tool.
Step 4: Adjust the attachment and bit to the desired
cutting depth.
Grout Removal Attachment Cutting Depth
Adjustment
The Multi Slide Depth Adjustment has increment
markings of 1/8" (3,2 mm). These markings are for
reference only in identifying the depth of your desired
cut. The multiple channels of the depth adjustment let
you choose the orientation of the attachment to the
tool. Be sure to securely tighten the screw within one
of the multiple channel positions.
To set cutting depth:
Cleaning Grout:
Do not remove grout more than 1/8" below the face
surface of the tile. Adjust the Multi Slide Depth
Adjustment and bit so that no more than 1/8" of the
bit extends beyond the base of the attachment.
After removing 1/8" of grout, regrout to tile level. Seal
the new grout.
When inserting the #569 or #570
grout removal bit into your
Step 2
Removing Grout to Replace A Broken Tile:
Remove all of the grout surrounding the broken tile.
Adjust the Multi Slide Depth Adjustment so that no
more than 1/8" of the bit extends beyond the base of
the attachment. See Figure 5. Remove grout at a
depth no more than 1/8" at a time. You may need to
adjust the Multi Slide Depth Adjustment by 1/8"
increments (reference the 1/8" incremental white
markings on the Multi Slide Depth Adjustment) and
make several passes until all the grout is removed.
When removing grout deeper into the grout line, you
may strike hidden objects like screw heads, mortar
tile cement or nails that may cause the bit to bind,
overheat or break. Reduce the tool speed and work

with the tool positioned below the attachment and the
bit pointing upwards.
On your variable speed tool, recommended tool speed
is 15,000-20,000 RPM's or speed setting 6 to avoid
damage to the bit. On your two speed tool,
recommended tool speed is "Low" to avoid damage to
the bit. Do not force the bit or put pressure on the
back of the tool to remove the grout. Let the speed of
the rotating bit do the work.
WARNING
!
When bit is installed, always run it at no-load speed
of the tool for one minute, as a damaged bit will
break apart. Do not stand in front of or in line with
bit.
Always use the tool with the depth guide positioned
flat against the material being cut.
The guide securely positioned on the material
improves stability and control of your tool.
The direction of feed with the bit into the grout is
important. Always drag or pull the bit through the
grout line. The grout bit is not intended for "plowing"
through the grout and feeding the tool in the wrong
direction will cause the bit to climb out of the work
possibly damaging the bit and/or causing loss of
control.

WARNING
result in misplacing of internal wires and components
which could cause serious hazard. We recommend that
all tool service be performed by a Dremel Service
Facility.
CARBON BRUSHES
The brushes and commutator in your tool have been
engineered for many hours of dependable service. In
order to prepare your brushes for use, run your tool at
full speed for 5 minutes under no load. This will properly
“seat” your brushes, which extends the life of both your
brushes and your tool. To maintain peak efficiency of the
motor, we recommend every 50 - 60 hours the brushes
be examined. Only genuine Dremel replacement brushes
specially designed for your tool should be used.
MAINTENANCE OF REPLACEABLE BRUSHES
ON MODEL F013039519
The brushes should be inspected frequently when tools
are used continuously. If your tool runs sporadically,
loses power, makes unusual noises or runs at a
reduced speed, check the brushes. To continue using
the tool in this condition will permanently damage your
tool.
With the cord unplugged, remove the brush caps one
at a time with a small screwdriver by rotating cap
counter-clockwise and check each brush.
Preventive maintenance performed
by unauthorized personnel may

BRUSH
After replacing brushes the tool should be run at noload; place it on a clean surface and run it freely at full
speed for 5 minutes before loading (or using) the tool.
This will allow the brushes to “seat” properly and will
give you more hours of life from each set of brushes.
This will also extend the total life of your tool since the
commutator surface will “wear” longer.

Dremel Accessories
!
WARNING
The number and variety of accessories for the Rotary
Tool are almost limitless. There is a category suited to
almost any job you might have to do — and a variety of
sizes and shapes within each category which enables
you to get the perfect accessory for every need.
Refer to the DREMEL ACCESSORY ORDER FORM for
illustrations of the accessories available. These
accessories may be found at your local hardware,
hobby or home center dealers.
Collets
If you expect to use a variety of accessories, we
recommend that in the beginning you purchase a
complete set of four collets. Store these so that you will
have the proper size of collet for any accessory or drill
bit you want to use. Currently, the 1/8", 3/32",1/32"
and 1/16" collets accommodate all of the available
Dremel accessories. 1/8" collets are included in most
rotary tool kits.
Mandrels
A mandrel is a shank with a threaded or screw head,
which are required when you use polishing
accessories, cutting wheels, sanding discs, and polishing points. The reason mandrels are used is that
sanding discs, cutting wheels and similar accessories
must be replaced frequently. The mandrel is a permanent shank, allowing you to replace only the worn
head when necessary, thus saving the expense of
replacing the shaft each time.
Screw Mandrel No. 401
This is a screw mandrel used with the felt polishing tip
and felt polishing wheels. 1/8" shank.
Small Screw Mandrel No. 402
This is a mandrel with a small screw at its tip, and is
used with emery and fiberglass cutting wheels, sanding
discs and polishing wheels. 1/8" shank.
Use only Dremel Tested, High Performance Accessories. Other accessories are not
designed for this tool and may lead to personal injury or property damage.
Tungsten Carbide Cutters
These are tough, long-lived cutters for use on hardened
steel, fired ceramics and other very hard materials.
They can be used for engraving on tools and garden
equipment. 1/8" shanks.
Engraving Cutters
This group has a wide variety of sizes and shapes, and
are made for intricate work on ceramics (greenware),
wood carvings, jewelry and scrimshaw. They often are
used in making complicated printed circuit boards.
They should not be used on steel and other very hard
materials but are excellent on wood, plastic and soft
metals. 3/32" shank.
Fast cutting, needle-sharp teeth for greater material
removal with minimum loading. Use on fiberglass,
wood, plastic, epoxy and rubber. 1/8" and 1/4" shank.
Aluminum Oxide Grinding Stones (red/brown)
Round, pointed, flat — you name the shape and there is
one available in this category. These are made of
aluminum oxide and cover virtually every possible kind
of grinding application. Use them for sharpening lawn
mower blades, screwdriver tips, knives, scissors, chisels
and other cutting tools. Use to remove flash from metal
castings, deburring any metal after cutting, smoothing
welded joints, grinding off rivets and removing rust.
These grinding stones can be resharped with a dressing
stone. In machine shops, high speed drills and cutters
normally are ground with aluminum oxide wheels. 1/8"
shank.
Structured Tooth
Tungsten Carbide Cutters
Threaded Tip Mandrel No. 424
This is a mandrel with a threaded tip which threads into
the polishing point accessory No. 427. 1/8" shank.
High Speed Cutters
Available in many shapes, high speed cutters are used
in carving, cutting and slotting in wood, plastics and
soft metals such as aluminum, copper and brass. These
are the accessories to use for freehand routing or

Wire Brushes
Three different shapes of wire brushes are available.
Never use wire brushes at speeds greater than
15,000 RPM. Refer to Operating Speeds section for
proper tool speed setting. The three shapes come in
three different materials: stainless steel, brass and
carbon wire. The stainless steel perform well on
pewter, aluminum, stainless steel, and other metals,
without leaving "after-rust". Brass brushes are non
sparking, and softer than steel; making them good for
use on soft metal like gold, cooper and brass. The
carbon wire brushes are good for general purpose
cleaning.
P
These include an impregnated polishing point and an
impregnated polishing wheel for bringing metal surfaces to smooth finish; a felt polishing tip and felt
polishing wheel, and cloth polishing wheel, all used for
polishing plastics, metals, jewelry and small parts. Also
included in this group is a polishing compound (No.
421) for use with the felt and cloth polishers.
Polishing points make a very smooth surface, but a
high luster is obtained using felt or cloth wheels and
polishing compound. For best results polishing
accessories should be used at speeds not greater
than 15,000 RPM. Refer to Operating Speeds section
for proper tool speed setting.
No polishing compound is needed when using the
425 Polishing Wheel or 427 Polishing point.
Bristle Brushes
These are excellent cleaning tools on silverware, jewelry and antiques. The three shapes make it possible to
get into tight corners and other difficult places. Bristle
brushes can be used with polishing compound for
faster cleaning or polishing.
Aluminum Oxide Abrasive Wheels
Brushing Pressure
1. Remember, the tips of a wire brush do the work.
Operate the brush with the lightest pressure so only
the tips of the wire come in contact with the work.
2. If heavier pressures are used, the wires will be
overstressed, resulting in a wiping action; and if this
is continued, the life of the brush will be shortened
due to wire fatigue.
3. Apply the brush to the work in such a way that as
much of the brush face as possible is in full contact
with the work. Applying the side or edge of the brush
to the work will result in wire breakage and shortened
brush life.
CORRECT:
Wire tips doing the work.
INCORRECT:
Excessive pressure can cause wire breakage.
Use to remove paint, deburr metal, polish stainless
steel and other metals. Available in fine and medium
grits. 1/8" shank.
Sanding Accessories
Sanding discs in fine, medium and coarse grades are
made to fit mandrel No. 402. They can be used for
nearly any small sanding job you might have, from
model making to fine furniture finishing. In addition,
there is the drum sander, a tiny drum which fits into the
Rotary Tool and makes it possible to shape wood,
smooth fiberglass, sand inside curves and other difficult places, and other sanding jobs. You replace the
sanding bands on the drum as they become worn and
lose their grit. Bands come in fine and coarse grades.
Flapwheels grind and polish flat or contoured surfaces.
They are used most effectively as a finishing sander
after heavier surface sanding and material removal is
completed. Flapwheels come in fine and coarse grades.
Buffs are a great finishing accessor
light sanding. They work effectively on metal, glass,
wood, aluminum and plastics. Coarse and medium
buffs are sold together

Mandrel No. 401 is used with the felt polishing tip and wheels. Thread the tip on to the screw carefully. The felt
tip must thread down straight on the screw Mandrel, and be turned all the way to the collar.
Mandrel No. 402 has a small screw at its tip, and is used with emery cutting wheels and sanding discs. Higher
speeds, usually maximum, are best for most work, including cutting steel. Which is shown here.
The machine-screw threading on Mandrel No. 424 threads into polishing point No. 427. This and other
threaded mandrels must be screwed firmly down to the collar before being used.
To replace a band on the Drum Sander, loosen the screw without removing it to contract the drum then slide
the old band off. Slide the new sanding band on and then expand the drum by tightening the screw once again.
