After replacing brushes the tool should be run
at no-load; place on a clean surface and run
freely 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.
TOOL LUBRICATION
Your Dremel tool has been properly
lubricated and is ready to use. Under normal
use no additional lubrication is required.
Cleaning
To avoid accidents always
disconnect the tool from the
power supply before cleaning or performing
any maintenance. 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, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and household detergents that
contain ammonia.
WARNING
!
CAUTION
!
Your Contour Sander can be equipped with
an optional dust collection wand. This device
is effective in sanding pad dust collection
when used with a shop vacuum with hose
dimensions of ID 1-1/2” or OD 1-3/8” or an
appropriate adapter to fit (see diagram on
page 31). When using the wand, be sure to
align the sanding sheet holes with the holes
in the sanding pad to allow the dust wand to
function properly.
The detail pad (and optional shutter pad) can
be used with hook/loop sandpaper with or
without holes for dust collection. If you’ve
purchased sandpaper without holes, holes
can be punched manually for use with the
dust wand.
Using sandpaper with holes - while not using
the dust wand - will not harm or damage
your work. This sander will operate
effectively with or without the dust collection
system.
To order individual contours (below), or for
additional information about the dust
collection feature, call Dremel Customer
Service @ 1-800-437-3635.

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.
NOTE: The smaller the gauge number, the
heavier the cord.
