DM 2610916195 4/03 4/28/03 10:52 AM Page 10 Operating Instructions - (Cont.) Using the Rotary Tool The first step in learning to use the Rotary Tool 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 Rotary Tool to be grasped much like a pen or pencil. The 395T6 Variable Speed tool has a unique comfort grip on the nose and back seating, which allows the user added comfort and control during use.
DM 2610916195 4/03 4/28/03 10:52 AM Page 11 Operating Speeds Set the speed indicator to fit the job; to achieve the best job results when working with different materials, the speed of the Rotary Tool should be regulated. Only a full wave output speed control such as the Dremel Model 221 should be used with the 275T6 Rotary Tool. To select the right speed for each job, use a practice piece of material. Vary speed to find the best speed for the accessory you are using and the job to be done.

Not for use with variable speed or two speed models 285 or 395. Use with external speed control will damage the variable/two speed electronics. ! CAUTION Ultimately, the best way to determine the correct speed for work on any material is to practice for a few minutes on a piece of scrap, even after referring to the chart.
