GETTING STARTED
USE
The fi rst 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. The unique softgrip provides added comfort
and control during use. 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 fi rst 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, 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. For best control of
the Stylus, hold the tool like a pencil between your thumb and
forefi nger. PICTURE 5. An alternative grip is the reverse grip for
close up applications. PICTURE 6 Rotate the tool sideways, with
the handle pointing out while resting your hand on the table.
PICTURE 7 For ultimate stability, rest the handle of the tool on
the table to help stabilize and control the accessory. PICTURE 8
OPERATING SPEEDS
This tool is a high speed rotary tool. Its speeds vary from 5.000
to 25.000 RPM. Adjusting the no. of RPM to your project will give
a better end result. To achieve the best results when working
with different materials, set the variable speed control to suit the
job. To select the right speed for the accessory in use, practice
with scrap material fi rst. The speed settings are marked on the
variable speed dial at the back of the tool. Refer to the Speed
Settings chart on pages 4-6 to help determine the proper speed
for the material being worked on and the accessory to use.
*) Speed for light cuts. Caution, burning on deep grooves
possible.
Most jobs can be accomplished using the tool at the highest
setting. However, certain materials (some plastics and metals)
can be damaged by high-speed generated heat and should
be worked on at relatively low speeds. Low speed operation
(15,000 RPM or less) is usually best for polishing operations
employing the felt polishing accessories. All brushing
applications require lower speeds to avoid wire discharge from
the holder. Let the performance of the tool do the work for you
when using lower speed settings. Higher speeds are better for
hardwoods, metals and glass and for drilling, carving, cutting,
shaping and cutting dadoes or rabbets in wood. The settings for
approximate RPM’s are:
Switch Setting Speed Range
1-2 5.000 - 9.000 RPM
3-4 9.000 - 13.000 RPM
5-6 13.000 - 17.000 RPM
7-8 17.000 - 21.000 RPM
9-10 21.000 - 25.000 RPM
Some guidelines regarding tool speed:
• Plastic and other materials that melt at low temperatures
should be cut at low speeds.
• Polishing, buffi ng and cleaning with a wire brush must be
done at speeds not greater than 15,000 RPM to prevent
damage to the brush and your material.
• Wood should be cut at high speed.
• Iron or steel should be cut at high speed.
• If a high speed steel cutter starts to vibrate, it usually
indicates that it is running too slow.
• Aluminium, copper alloys, lead alloys, zinc alloys and tin
may be cut at various speeds, depending on the type of
cutting being done. Use a paraffi n (not water) or other
suitable lubricant on the cutter to prevent the cut material
from adhering to the cutter teeth.
NOTE: Increasing pressure on the tool is not the answer when it is
not performing properly. Try a different accessory or speed setting
to achieve the desired result.
STALL PROTECTION
This tool has a stall protection feature to protect the motor
and battery in the event of a stall. If you stall the tool for too
long, or bind the bit in a work piece, especially at high speeds,
it will automatically turn itself off. Simply take the tool out of
the material, turn it off for 3 seconds, then turn it on again to
continue using it. When the battery becomes close to empty, the
tool may shut down automatically more frequent than normal. If
this happens, it is time to recharge the battery.
DELAY START SWITCH
The Stylus is equipped with a momentary delayed on/off switch
to protect from accidental starting of your tool. To turn your tool
on, you must hold the button down for approximately half a
second. If your tool is not turning on immediately, try holding the
button down longer.
MAINTENANCE
Preventative 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 Facility. To avoid injury from
unexpected starting or electrical shock, always turn off powertool
before performing service or cleaning.
