MAKE A FEW PRACTICE CUTS
After installing the Zip Bit into the tool and
adjusting your depth guide, you should make
a few practice cuts with the tool before
attempting an actual job.
A few exercises will give you the necessary
practice to make clean, professional cuts.
Step 1
Make certain that the collet nut is securely
tightened before turning the tool on.
Step 2
Hold the tool firmly and turn the tool ON to
your desired speed.
IMPORTANT USER TIP
Step 3
While holding the tool firmly, insert the Zip Bit
into the material at a 45° angle (Fig. 12).
Step 4
Slowly bring it to a 90° angle to begin the cut
(Fig. 13). The base guide should be flush to
the material surface. For all materials
(EXCEPT cutting around outlet boxes in
drywall), steer the tool in a clockwise
direction with slow, steady pressure to make
the cut.
Step 5
After completing your cut, turn off the tool
and carefully remove it from the material.
Do not attempt to use this tool to make cut-
outs around any fixture or opening which has
live electrical wires, or any wall which may
have live electrical wiring behind it, as the Zip
Bit could conduct current to the tool, creating
an electrocution hazard for the operator.
Shut off breakers or remove fuses to
disconnect the circuit. Always hold the tool
DEPTH GUIDE ADJUSTMENT
Use the depth guide to adjust the depth of
cut. Using the end of the standard wrench,
loosen (counter clockwise) the screw enough
to enable the depth guide to slide up or down
to the desired depth of cut (about 1/8"
greater than material thickness) and
retighten the locking screw (clockwise)
(Fig. 11).
