Service

Preventive maintenance per-

formed 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 Facility.

CARBON BRUSHES

The brushes and commutator in your tool have been

engineered for many hours of dependable service. In

order to prepare your brushes for use, run your tool at

full speed for 5 minutes under no load. This will properly

“seat” your brushes, which extends the life of both your

brushes and your tool. To maintain peak efficiency of the

motor, we recommend every 50 - 60 hours the brushes

be examined. Only genuine Dremel replacement brushes

specially designed for your tool should be used.

MAINTENANCE OF REPLACEABLE BRUSHES

ON MODELS 275T6, 285T6, & 395T6

The brushes should be inspected frequently when tools

are used continuously. If your tool runs sporadically,

loses power, makes unusual noises or runs at a

reduced speed, check the brushes. To continue using

the tool in this condition will permanently damage your

tool.

With the cord unplugged, remove the brush caps one

at a time with a small screwdriver by rotating cap

counter-clockwise and check each brush.

If the brush is less than 1/8" long and the end sur

face

of the brush that contacts the commutator is rough

and/or pitted, they should be replaced. Check both

brushes. Usually the brushes will not wear out simul

taneously. If one brush is worn out, replace both

brushes. Make sure the brushes are installed as illus

trated. The curved surface of the brush must match the

curvature of the commutator

After replacing brushes the tool should be run at no-

load; place it on a clean surface and run it freely at full

speed for 5 minutes before loading (or using) the tool.

This will allow the brushes to “seat” properly and will

give you more hours of life from each set of brushes.

This will also extend the total life of your tool since the

commutator surface will “wear” longer.

BEARINGS

Models 275T6, 285T6, and 395T6 have double ball

bearing construction. Under normal use they will not

require lubrication.

Cleaning

To avoid accidents always dis-

connect the tool from the power

supply before cleaning or performing any main-

tenance. 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 openings.

Certain cleaning agents and

solvents damage plastic parts.

Some of these are: gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, chlo-

rinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household

detergents that contain ammonia.

Extension Cords

If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with

adequate size conductors 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.
