Service
NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS
INSIDE. Preventive maintenance
performed by unauthorized personnel may result in
misplacing of internal wires and components which
could cause serious hazard. We recommend that all
tool service be performed by a Dremel Service Center.
SERVICEMEN: Disconnect tool and/or charger from
power source before servicing.
D.C. motors
The motor in your tool has been engineered for many
hours of dependable service. To maintain peak efficiency
of the motor, we recommend it be examined every six
months. Only a genuine Dremel replacement motor
specially designed for your tool should be used.
Cleaning
To avoid accidents, always dis-
connect the tool and/or charger
from the power supply before cleaning. The tool may
be cleaned most effectively with compressed dry air.
Always wear safety goggles when cleaning tools with
compressed air.
Ventilation openings and switch levers must be kept
clean and free of foreign matter. Do not attempt to clean
by inserting pointed objects through opening.
Certain cleaning agents and sol-
vents damage plastic parts. Some
of these are: gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, chlorinated
cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents
that contain ammonia.
Extension Cords
If an extension cord is necessary,
a cord with adequate size conduc-
tors that is capable of carrying the current necessary
for your tool must be used. This will prevent excessive
voltage drop, loss of power or overheating. Grounded
tools must use 3-wire extension cords that have 3-
prong plugs and receptacles.
RECOMMENDED SIZES OF EXTENSION CORDS
120 VOLT ALTERNATING CURRENT TOOLS
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the
cord.
