The Dremel Stylus is designed for intricate, detailed,
precise use, where control is needed. It comes with an
assortment of Premium accessories that are specifically
designed for fine, detailed work where you need
precision and control. It is intended to be used on
applications such as finish sanding, engraving, carving,
etching, polishing, and cleaning, to name a few. The
Dremel Stylus is small, light, and compact to give you
t
he ultimate precision and control when working on
y
our projects.
Your Dremel Stylus has a small, powerful electric
motor, is comfortable in the hand, and is made to accept
a large variety of accessories including abrasive wheels,
drill bits, wire brushes, polishers, and engraving
cutters. 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 your Dremel
Stylus is. You’ll see dozens of uses you hadn’t thought
of before now.
The real secret of the Dremel Stylus 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 typical
electric drill is a low-speed, high torque tool; the Dremel
Stylus is just the opposite — a high-speed, low torque
tool. The chief 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
l
ow speed tools, you not only guide the tool, but also
a
pply 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 that makes your
Dremel Stylus different from other power tools. The
speed enables it to do jobs low speed tools cannot do,
such as cutting hardened steel, engraving glass, etc.
Getting the most out of your Dremel Stylus is a matter
of learning how to let this speed work for you.

correct accessory for your job.
Stall Protection
This tool has a stall protection feature built into it to
protect the motor and battery in the event of a stall. If
you stall the tool for too long, or bind the bit in a work
piece, especially at high speeds, it will automatically
turn itself off. Simply take the tool out of the materi-
al you were stalled in, turn it off for 3 seconds, then
turn it back on again to continue using it. When the
battery becomes close to empty, the tool may shut
down automatically more frequent than normal. If
this happens, it is time to recharge the battery.
Delay Start Switch
Y
our Stylus tool is equipped with a momentary
delayed on/off switch to protect from accidental start
-
ing of your tool. To turn your tool on, you must hold
the button down for approximately one half of one
second. If your tool is not turning on immediately, try
holding the button down longer to turn the tool on.
