Safety Instructions
A Micromotor Handpiece is a high speed power tool which can be dangerous
and cause serious injury if it is not used properly. NEVER operate it without
wearing eye protection.
• ALWAYS wear proper eye and face protection.
• NEVER use or continue to use any accessory which appears to be damaged, loose,
vibrating, bent, or out of balance. Inspect each accessory for cracks or flaws before use.
• ALWAYS insert the accessory shank into the chuck of the handpiece as far as possible
in order to provide proper support and close the chuck securely.
• NEVER use excessive side pressures which may tend to bend or break the shank or
arbor of an accessory. Let the speed of the accessory do the work.
• WEAR a dust protector to prevent the inhalation of harmful dust or debris from
grinding, carving or other operations performed with this power tool.
• DO NOT cover the ventilation slots or handpiece motor with cloth or tape. Air must
pass freely through the intake and exhaust ventilation slots to properly cool the
motor. If the power cord or plug to the handpiece is damaged, repair or replace
immediately. NEVER operate with a damaged power cord.
• USE a dust collector (vacuum system) to pull sawdust, grinding dust, or other debris
away from the work area and the micro motor intake vents.
• NEVER plug the Handpiece into the Variable Speed Foot Control Connection
Port on the back of the Control Box.
• ALWAYS plug the Handpiece it into the Handpiece Connection Port on the
Front of the Control Box.
• DO NOT operate the handpiece in the presence of any flammable liquid or gas.
Assembly Instructions
Do not plug into a power outlet before connecting the handpiece. Also, check to
see that the voltage selector switch (located on the back of the control box) is
set to the voltage to be used–110 or 220 volt.
Connecting Handpiece:
With the Power Switch in the “Off” position and the Rotation Selection Switch in the “Forward”
