Use low RPM settings when work-
ing with plastics or other materials
with low melting points. Melted
plastics can liquefy, be thrown into
the air, and stick to the operator,
causing serious personal injury.
Installing Flex Shaft
The flex shaft allows the user to get into
tight spaces and is easier to control—
more like a pencil. DO NOT operate the
flex shaft with sharp bends.
To install flex shaft:
1. DISCONNECT TOOL FROM POWER!
2. Loosen collet nut and remove plastic
locking ring on rotary tool (see Figure 1
on Page 5) to expose shaft attachment
threads, as shown in Figure 6.
3. Pull inner spindle partially out of flex
shaft (see Figure 6).
4. Insert inner spindle into rotary tool
collet, then tighten collet nut, as
described in Steps 5 –6 on Page 8.
5. Thread flexible shaft plastic locking ring
onto rotary tool attachment threads.
6. Insert shank of tool bit into collet as
shown in Figure 7, then slide down flex
shaft locking sleeve and tighten collet.
Note: Hold flex shaft firmly when start-
ing rotary tool.
