Foredom 350K2 - Manual (Page 2)

4. Insert the narrow end of the hose adapter hose from the handpiece to the source
nozzle marked “OUT” on the Foot Pedal. To connect the air line hoses push them
directly into the push fittings. Leave sufficient length to allow operator convenience
and movement within the operator’s work area.Using the screw holes in the bracket,
locate the Filter/ Regulator in a permanent position that will allow the operator to read
the pressure gauge with an occasional glance to ensure that it is maintaining the
required 40 PSI. Pressure that is too high can damage the turbine, and too low a
pressure will result in unsatisfactory functioning of the handpiece.
If the compressor introduces any noticeable amount of moisture into the air line,
it will collect in the clear separator cup. Periodically drain the water away by
depressing the air valve on the bottom of the cup.
To keep the Foot Pedal stable and secure, it
is a good idea to mount it either on the floor,
or to a piece of heavy sheet metal or thin
plywood near the operator’s foot. Once a
suitable working location for the compo-
nents has been found, you may want to
shorten the air lines to a length that will
keep them out of the way.

Operation
• Always wear proper eye protection
when using this and other power tools.
• Never operate the handpiece without a
bur in the collet.
• Always use 1/16 ″ (1.6mm) shank friction grip burs rated for 350,000 RPM.
• Tie back long hair, and avoid wearing jewelry or loose clothing.
• To insert a bur, push the collet release plunger and insert the bur into the collet. Make
sure that the bur is fully inserted into the collet before releasing the collet release
plunger. Bur removal is easy: press the collet release plunger and pull the bur out.
• Develop a light, but sensitive and controlled touch as bur makes contact
with material.
• For accuracy, dexterity, and comfort, hold the handpiece loosely, but with enough
pressure to maintain control.
• Use a suitable dust collection system that will remove not only larger dust
particles, but airborne dust as well from the work area.
• Wear a respirator to prevent the inhalation of dust particles.
• Do not cover exhaust port at the rear of handpiece during use.
• Keep the work area clean and organized.
• Keep children out of the work area and away from any operating or
moving machinery.
• Keep the foot pedal out of the way to avoid accidental starts.
