GENERAL
The Dremel multitool is a high quality precision tool that can be
used to perform detailed and intricate tasks. The wide range of
Dremel accessories and attachments allow you to perform a large
variety of tasks. These include tasks such as sanding, carving,
engraving, routing, cleaning and polishing.

COLLETS
The Dremel accessories available for the multitool come
with various shank sizes. Four size collets are available to
accommodate the different shank sizes. Collet sizes are identified
by the rings on the back of the collet.

NOTE: Some multitool kits may not include all four collet sizes.
Collets are available separately.
Always use the collet that matches the shank size of the accessory you
plan to use. Do not force a larger diameter shank into a smaller collet.

1. Press the shaft lock button, hold down and rotate the shaft
by hand until it engages the shaft lock. Do not engage the
shaft lock button while multitool is running.
2. With the shaft lock button engaged, loosen and remove the
collet nut. Use the collet wrench if necessary.
3. Remove the collet by pulling it free from the shaft.
4. Install the appropriate size collet fully into the shaft and
reinstall the collet nut finger tight. Do not fully tighten the
nut when there is no bit or accessory installed.
CHANGING ACCESSORIES
PICTURE 8
1. Press the shaft lock button and rotate the shaft by hand
until it engages the shaft lock. Do not engage the shaft lock
button while multitool is running.
2. With the shaft lock button engaged, loosen (do not remove)
the collet nut. Use the collet wrench if necessary.
3. Insert the bit or accessory shank fully into the collet.
4. With the shaft lock button engaged, finger tighten the collet
nut until the bit or accessory shank is gripped by the collet.
NOTE: Be sure to read the instructions supplied with your
Dremel accessory for further information on its use.
Use only Dremel tested, high performance accessories.
BALANCING ACCESSORIES
For precision work, it is important that all accessories be in good
balance (much the same as the tires on your automobile). To true
up or balance an accessory, slightly loosen collet nut and give the
accessory or collet a 1/4 turn. Re tighten collet nut and run the
Rotary Tool. You should be able to tell by the sound and feel if your
accessory is running in balance. Continue adjusting in this fashion
until best balance is achieved.
GETTING STARTED
USE
The first step in using the multitool is to get the "feel" of it. Hold
it in your hand and feel its weight and balance. Feel the taper of
the housing. This taper permits the tool to be grasped much like
a pen or pencil.
Always hold the tool away from your face. Accessories can be
damaged during handling and can fly apart as they come up to
speed.
When holding tool, do not cover the ventilation openings with your
hand. Blocking the ventilation openings could cause the motor to
overheat.
IMPORTANT! Practice on scrap material first to see how the tool’s
high-speed action performs. Keep in mind that your multitool
will perform best by allowing the speed, along with the correct
Dremel accessory and attachment, to do the work for you. Do not
put pressure on the tool during use, if possible. Instead, lower the
spinning accessory lightly to the work surface and allow it to touch
the point at which you want to begin. Concentrate on guiding the
tool over the work using very little pressure from your hand. Allow
the accessory to do the work.
Usually it is better to make a series of passes with the tool
rather than to do the entire job with one pass. A gentle touch
gives the best control and reduces the chance of error.
HOLDING THE TOOL
For best control in close work, grip the multitool like a pencil
between your thumb and forefinger. PICTURE 9
