A WARNING
Always unplug rotary tool
before changing acces
sories, changing collets or servicing your
rotary tool.
COLLET — To loosen, first press shaft iock
button and rotate the shaft by hand until the
lock engages the shaft preventing further
rotation.
With the shaft lock engaged use the collet
wrench to toosen the collet nut if necessary.
Change accessories by inserting the new one
into the collet as far as possible to minimize
runout and unbalance. With the shaft lock
engaged, finger lighten the collet nut unlit the
accessory shank is gripped by the collet Avoid
excessive tightening of the collet nut. The
coliei system is a superior method of securing
accessories-
COLLETS " Two different size collets (see
illustration), to accommodate different shank
sizes, are available for your Rotary Tool,. To
Install a different collet, remove the coHel nut
and remove the old collet. Insert the unslotted
end of the collet in the hole in the end of tfje
tool shaft.. Replace collet nut on the shaft
Always use the coliet which matches the
shank size of the accessory you plan to
use. Never force a larger diameter shank into
a collet.
COLLCT iDENTIFlCATlON SMART — Collel sizes can
be identified by the rings on lha back end of collet
1/32' Collet has one (1) ririg
1/1B' Collet has two (2) rings
3/32’ Collet has threa (3) rings
1/8” Collet has no rifigs
BALANCING ACCESSORIES — For
precision work, it is important that all
accessories be in good balance (much the
same as the tires on your automobile), To true
up or balance an accessory, slightly loosen
collet nut and give the accessory or collet a 1/4
turn- Retighten collet nut and run the Rotary
Tool- You should be able to tell by the sound
and fee! If your accessory is running in
balance,. Continue adjusting in this fashion
until best balance is achieved To maintain
balance on abrasive wheel points, before each
use, with the wheel point secured in the collet,
turn on the Rotary too! and run the Dressing
Stone lighfiy against the revolving wheel point.
This removes high spots and trues up the
wheel point for good balance.
Do not Use grinding
wheels over 1" in dia
meter. Rotary Tool's high speed can cause
larger wheels to fly apart and could cause
injury.
SAFETY ^— Protect your eyes when grinding
or routing with the Rotary Tool .always wear
an approved type of safety glasses
Remember, your new Sears Rotary Tool is the
finest power tool of its kind. But its
performance is, .only as, good as the

recommend only Sears accessories be used.

hazard. We hope you’ll enjoy many years of
trouble free pleasure from your Sears
