OPERATION

OPERATION
1.

Before using the Flexible Shaft

Grinder, determine a location in the

work area to mount the Holder and the

Hanger. Drive (2) wood screws

through (2) Electrical Rings and

through the Hanger to the mounting

location selected. Attach the Hanger

to the Motor Housing with (2) screws.

2.

The Flex Shaft and Flex Shaft Housing

need to be lubricated with a light lithi-

um lubricant or machine oil. Use only

as small amount. Too much lubricant

can become messy and possibly get

on your workpiece.

Do not use auto-

motive grease as it is too viscous.

3.

A setscrew holds the Flex Shaft to the

Motor Shaft. When the Flex Shaft is

secure to the Motor Shaft, thread the

end of the Flex Shaft Housing onto the

base of the Motor Housing. Be sure

that the Flexible Shaft assembly is not

bent more than 90 degrees or kinked.

4.

The Grinder Head fits onto the end of

the Flex Shaft. It is secure when you

hear a snap. To remove the Grinder

Head from the Flex Shaft, firmly grasp

the Grinder Head and Flex Shaft with

two hands and pull apart.

5.

Loosen the Drill Chuck with the Chuck

Key. Insert the desired bit and tighten

the Drill Chuck with the Chuck Key.

6.

Attach the Foot Control as follows.

Insert the Plug into the Female Plug.

Insert the Power Plug into the electri-

cal outlet. The depth of the Foot

Control can be set by using the

setscrew on the Foot Control, this will

allow the operator to adjust for desired

maximum speed. Tightening and low-

ering the screw will allow for greater

speeds. Loosening and raising the

screw will limit the speed allowed by

the Foot Control.

7.

Make sure all safety instructions have

been followed before turning the

machine “ON”.

8.

Once the tool is on, select the desired

speed by using the Foot Control.

Operating this tool can propel
objects into the air, causing immedi-
ate eye damage. To protect yourself,
always wear American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) approved
safety glasses or goggles when oper-
ating this equipment.

Under normal working conditions
and use, it is normal for the Motor
Housing to become hot. However,
the hot surface may cause personal
injury if touched or present a possi-
ble danger of an extreme fire hazard
if near flammable material. If the
Flexible Shaft Grinder is used for a
prolonged period of time and the
motor housing becomes EXTREME-
LY HOT, stop using the machine and
let it cool down.
