Multi-Tool Use
The purpose of this overview is to provide
the novice machine operator with a basic
understanding of how the machine is used
during operation, so the machine controls/
components discussed later in this manual
are easier to understand.
Due to the generic nature of this over-
view, it is not intended to be an instruc-
tional guide. To learn more about specific
operations, read this entire manual and
seek additional training from experienced
machine operators, and do additional
research outside of this manual by read-
ing "how-to" books, trade magazines, or
websites.
To perform a typical operation:
1. DISCONNECT MULTI-TOOL FROM
POWER!
2. Install appropriate accessory tool for
the operation (refer to Assembly sec-
tion on Page 12).
3. Put on safety glasses and a respirator.
4. Connect the multi-tool to power.
5. Firmly hold multi-tool, turn ON, and
adjust speed dial as necessary for job.
6. While maintaining a balanced position,
complete the operation with both hand
on the multi-tool to ensure proper con-
trol.
— If working on a small workpiece
that could shift during operation and
cause a loss of control, secure it with
clamps or a vise.
— If working on a wall or other object
that may have wiring, pipes, or other
flammable pressurized material
inside, inspect it carefully to ensure
you know what is on the other side
of the cut.
