7. Using the tool for the first time
• Make sure that the drive unit is switched off.
• Check that the mains voltage specified on the rating
plate of the power supply unit is the same as your
mains supply. Only then should you insert the plug of
the power supply unit into a socket-outlet.
7.1. ON/OFF switch (Fig. 3)
Switch on the drive unit with the power switch (1).
7.2. Speed selector (Fig. 3)
The required speed can be set with the speed control (2).
The correct speed depends on the tool used and the
type of material being processed.
7.3 Directions for use
• With small milling cutters/grinding pins: Use a
high speed.
• With large milling cutters / grinding pins: Use a
low speed.
• Precision work / engraving: Hold the drive unit
like a pen.
• Rough work: Hold the drive unit like a hammer.
7.4 Tips
• Exert only moderate pressure on the workpiece
and allow it to be processed at uniform speed.
• You will not finish your work sooner by exerting
heavy pressure. On the contrary, heavy pressure
will cause the drive unit to slow down or stop and
will overload the motor.
• For your own safety, use a vise or screw clamp to
secure small workpieces.
