The iSpeed3is not a hand tool. It is designed to be used on CNC machines or special purpose
machines.
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for
electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock. This system is equipped with an
electric cord with a grounding conductor and grounding plug.
The plug must plugged matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with
all local codes and ordnances.
Do not use in dangerous environments. Protect the control unit from moisture and other
contaminants.
Failure to protect control unit can result in damage to internal components
and injury to the operator.
Always wear safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses, they ARE
NOT
safety glasses.
Never touch the motor spindle or cutting tool while the motor spindle is rotating.
Reduce the risk of unintentional starting. Make sure the main power button is in the Off position
before
connecting the control unit or plugging the system in.
Do not apply excessive force. This may cause collet chuck or chuck nut, tool slippage or tool damage.
Do not exceed the maximum allowable tool speed. For your safety, use tools below the maximum
allowable speed as set by the tool manufacturer.
Do not a bent, broken, chipped, out of round or sub-standard tool. They can shatter or explode,
and may cause injury.
Check to ensure that the supply voltage is the same as the control unitʼs rated voltage.
Never touch the power cord with wet hands. This may cause an electric shock.
Please make sure to use a power supply cord set which conforms to regulations /laws of the
country in use and which has voltage and current ratings according to product specifications.

The motor cooling and spindle purge air is required to operate the system.
The input air line must be connected to the AIR IN connector on the rear of the control unit.
Air pressure between 0.2MPa-0.5MPa must be supplied.
Do not disassemble, modify or attempt to repair the control unit or motor spindle as it will damage
internal components.
There are no user serviceable parts available.
When an errors occurs and error lamp flashes, check and correct the cause of the malfunction before
