Craftsman 572.61096 Power Hammer User Manual


 
The Rotary Tool is a handful of high-speed
power. It serves as a carver, grinder,
polisher, sander, cutter, power brush, drill
and more.
The Rotary Tool has a small, powerful
electric motor, is comfortable in the hand,
and is made to accept a large variety of
accessories including abrasive wheels, drill
bits, wire brushes, polishers, engraving
cutters, router bits, and cutting wheels.
Accessories come in a variety of shapes and
permit you to do a number of different jobs.
As you become familiar with the range of
accessories and their uses, you will learn just
how versatile the Rotary Tool is. You'll see
dozens of uses you hadn't thought of before.
The real secret of the Rotary Tool is its
speed. To understand the advantages of its
high speed, you have to know that the
standard portable electric drill runs at
speeds up to 2,800 revolutions per minute.
The Rotary Tool operates at speeds up to
35,000 revolutions per minute. The typical
electric drill is a low-speed, high torque tool;
the Rotary Tool is just the opposite - a high-
speed, low torque tool. The chief difference
to the user is that in the high speed tools,
the speed combined with the accessory
mounted in the collet does the work. You
don't apply pressure to the tool, but simply
hold and guide it. In the low speed tools, you
not only guide the tool, but also apply
pressure to it, as you do, for example, when
drilling a hole.
It is this high speed, along with its compact
size and wide variety of special accessories,
that makes the Rotary Tool different from
other power tools. The speed enables it to
do jobs low speed tools cannot do, such as
cutting hardened steel, engraving glad, etc.
Getting the most out of your Rotary Tool is a
matter of learning how to let this speed work
for you.
