Speed adjusting dial
For model RP1101 only
The tool speed can be changed by turning the speed adjust-
ing dial to a given number setting from 1 to 6.
Higher speed is obtained when the dial is turned in the direc-
tion of number 6. And lower speed is obtained when it is
turned in the direction of number 1.
This allows the ideal speed to be selected for optimum mate-
rial processing, i.e. the speed can be correctly adjusted to
suit the material and bit diameter.
Refer to the table for the relationship between the number
settings on the dial and the approximate tool speed.
CAUTION:
If the tool is operated continuously at low speeds for a
long time, the motor will get overloaded, resulting in tool
malfunction.
The speed adjusting dial can be turned only as far as 6
and back to 1. Do not force it past 6 or 1, or the speed
adjusting function may no longer work.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing the bit
CAUTION:
Use always a collet which is suitable for the shank
diameter of the bit.
Do not tighten the collet chuck without inserting a bit, or
the collet chuck will break.
When using bit of bigger than 1-1/4 in diameter, install
base plate with center hole diameter 2-1/2, replacing
the original base plate.
