Assembly
Do not engage lock while the
Rotary Tool is running.
COLLETS — Four different size collets (see illus-
tration), to accommodate different shank sizes, are
available for your Cordless Rotary Tool. To install a dif-
ferent 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 tool 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.
To change accessories, turn tool off, slide shaft lock
button toward nose of tool, and turn collet nut counter-
clockwise (approximately three turns). Change acces-
sories by inserting the new one into the collet as far as
possible to minimize runout and unbalance. With the
shaft lock engaged, finger tighten the collet nut until the
accessory shank is gripped by the collet. Avoid exces-
sive tightening of the collet nut.
BALANCING ACCESSORIES — For precision work, it is
important that all accessories be in good balance
(much the same as the tires on your automobile). To
true up or balance an accessory, slightly loosen collet
nut and give the accessory or collet a 1/4 turn. Re-
tighten collet nut and run the Tool. You should be able
to tell by the sound and feel if your accessory is run-
ning in balance. Continue adjusting in this fashion until
best balance is achieved. To maintain balance on abra-
sive wheel points, before each use, with the wheel point
secured in the collet, turn on the Stylus and run the 415
Dressing Stone lightly against the revolving wheel
point. This removes high spots and trues up the wheel
point for good balance.
