GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

WORK AREA SAFETY
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
b. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
c. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

SERVICE
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

SAFETY WARNINGS FOR ALL OPERATIONS

SAFETY WARNINGS COMMON FOR GRINDING, SANDING, WIRE BRUSHING, POLISHING, CARVING OR ABRASIVE CUTTING-OFF OPERATIONS
a. This power tool is intended to function as a grinder, sander, wire brush, polisher, carving or cut-off tool. Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
b. Do not use accessories which are not specifically designed and recommended by the tool manufacturer. Just because the accessory can be attached to your power tool, it does not assure safe operation.
c. The rated speed of the grinding accessories must be at least equal to the maximum speed marked on the power tool. Grinding accessories running faster than their rated speed can break and fly apart.
d. The outside diameter and the thickness of your accessory must be within the capacity rating of your power tool. Incorrectly sized accessories cannot be adequately controlled.
e. The arbour size of wheels, sanding drums or any other accessory must properly fit the spindle or collet of the power tool. Accessories that do not match the mounting hardware of the power tool will run out of balance, vibrate excessively and may cause loss of control.
f. Mandrel mounted wheels, sanding drums, cutters or other accessories must be fully inserted into the collet or chuck. If the mandrel is insufficiently held and/or the overhang of the wheel is too long, the mounted wheel may become loose and be ejected at high velocity.
g. Do not use a damaged accessory. Before each use inspect the accessory such as abrasive wheels for chips and cracks, sanding drum for cracks, tear or excess wear, wire brush for loose or cracked wires. If power tool or accessory is dropped, inspect for damage or install an undamaged accessory. After inspecting and installing an accessory, position yourself and bystanders away from the plane of the rotating accessory and run the power tool at maximum no- load speed for one minute. Damaged accessories will normally break apart during this test time.
h. Wear personal protective equipment. Depending on application, use face shield, safety goggles or safety glasses. As appropriate, wear dust mask, hearing protectors, gloves and workshop apron capable of stopping small abrasive or workpiece fragments. The eye protection must be capable of stopping flying debris generated by various operations. The dust mask or respirator must be capable of filtrating particles generated by your operation. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise may cause hearing loss.
i. Keep bystanders a safe distance away from work area. Anyone entering the work area must wear personal protective equipment. Fragments of workpiece or of a broken accessory may fly away and cause injury beyond immediate area of operation.
j. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
k. Always hold the tool firmly in your hand(s) during the start-up. The reaction torque of the motor, as it accelerates to full speed, can cause the tool to twist.
l. Use clamps to support workpiece whenever practical. Never hold a small workpiece in one hand and the tool in the other hand while in use. Clamping a small workpiece allows you to use your hand(s) to control the tool. Round material such as dowel rods, pipes or tubing have a tendency to roll while being cut, and may cause the bit to bind or jump toward you.
m. Never lay the power tool down until the accessory has come to a complete stop. The spinning accessory may grab the surface and pull the power tool out of your control.
n. After changing the bits or making any adjustments, make sure the collet nut, chuck or any other adjustment devices are securely tightened. Loose adjustment devices can unexpectedly shift, causing loss of control, loose rotating components will be violently thrown.
o. Do not run the power tool while carrying it at your side. Accidental contact with the spinning accessory could snag your clothing, pulling the accessory into your body.
p. Regularly clean the power tool’s air vents. The motor’s fan will draw the dust inside the housing and excessive accumulation of powdered metal may cause electrical hazards.
q. Do not operate the power tool near flammable materials. Sparks could ignite these materials.
r. Do not use accessories that require liquid coolants. Using water or other liquid coolants may result in electrocution or shock.

KICKBACK AND RELATED WARNINGS
Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel, sanding band, brush or any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory’s rotation. For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator, depending on direction of the wheel’s movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also break under these conditions. Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.

a. Maintain a firm grip on the power tool and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. The operator can control kickback forces, if proper precautions are taken.
b. Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
c. Do not attach a toothed saw blade. Such blades create frequent kickback and loss of control.
d. Always feed the bit into the material in the same direction as the cutting edge is exiting from the material (which is the same direction as the chips are thrown). Feeding the tool in the wrong direction causes the cutting edge of the bit to climb out of the work and pull the tool in the direction of this feed.
e. When using rotary files, cut-off wheels, high-speed cutters or tungsten carbide cutters, always have the work securely clamped. These wheels will grab if they become slightly canted in the groove, and can kickback. When a cutoff wheel grabs, the wheel itself usually breaks. When a rotary file, high- speed cutter or tungsten carbide cutter grabs, it may jump from the groove and you could lose control of the tool.

SAFETY WARNINGS SPECIFIC FOR GRINDING AND ABRASIVE CUTTING-OFF OPERATIONS
a. Use only wheel types that are recommended for your power tool and only for recommended applications. For example: do not grind with the side of a cut-off wheel. Abrasive cut-off wheels are intended for peripheral grinding, side forces applied to these wheels may cause them to shatter.
b. For threaded abrasive cones and plugs use only undamaged wheel mandrels with an unrelieved shoulder flange that are of correct size and length. Proper mandrels will reduce the possibility of breakage.
c. Do not “jam” a cut-off wheel or apply excessive pressure. Do not attempt to make an excessive depth of cut. Overstressing the wheel increases the loading and susceptibility to twisting or snagging of the wheel in the cut and the possibility of kickback or wheel breakage.
d. Do not position your hand in line with and behind the rotating wheel. When the wheel, at the point of operation, is moving away from your hand, the possible kickback may propel the spinning wheel and the power tool directly at you.
e. When wheel is pinched, snagged or when interrupting a cut for any reason, switch off the power tool and hold the power tool motionless until the wheel comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the cut-off wheel from the cut while the wheel is in motion otherwise kickback may occur. Investigate and take corrective action to eliminate the cause of wheel pinching or snagging.
f. Do not restart the cutting operation in the workpiece. Let the wheel reach full speed and carefully re-enter the cut. The wheel may bind, walk up or kickback if the power tool is restarted in the workpiece.
g. Support panels or any oversized workpiece to minimize the risk of wheel pinching and kickback. Large workpieces tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed under the workpiece near the line of cut and near the edge of the workpiece on both sides of the wheel.
h. Use extra caution when making a “pocket cut” into existing walls or other blind areas. The protruding wheel may cut gas or water pipes, electrical wiring or objects that can cause kickback.

DO NOT WORK WITH MATERIALS CONTAINING ASBESTOS (asbestos is considered carcinogenic)
**TAKE PROTECTIVE MEASURES WHEN DURING WORK DUST CAN DEVELOP THAT IS HARMFUL TO ONE’S HEALTH, COMBUSTIBLE OR EXPLOSIVE (some dusts are considered carcinogenic); wear a dust mask and work with dust/ chip extraction when connectable**

ASSEMBLY

ALWAYS TURN OFF THE TOOL BEFORE CHANGING ACCESSORIES, CHANGING COLLETS, OR SERVICING THE TOOL

BATTERIES 5
To insert batteries Y (not included), press unlocking buttons H of battery adapter C and pull it off the tool. Place the batteries in adapter C (pay attention to correct polarisation) and slide the adapter onto the tool until you feel it click into place. To remove the batteries, press unlocking buttons H and pull off battery adapter C (take care that the batteries do not fall out). Always replace all batteries at the same time. Only use batteries from one brand and with the identical capacity. Always remove the batteries from the tool when not using it for extended periods. Only use battery adapter C with Dremel model 7020-PGK. Only use AA/1.5V non-rechargeable alkaline batteries with this tool. Remove exhausted batteries from the tool.

TO MOUNT MANDREL 6
Unscrew and remove the nose cap F from the tool by twisting it counter- clockwise until it comes off the tool. To loosen the collet nut, first press shaft-lock button A and rotate the collet nut D by hand until the lock engages the shaft preventing further rotation. ! Do not engage shaft-lock while the tool is running With the shaft-lock A engaged, loosen the collet nut D (turn counterclockwise). Use the wrench I if necessary. The collet nut must be loosely threaded on when inserting an accessory. Insert mandrel R into collet E. Make sure the blue spacer S on the mandrel bottoms out on the collet nut (setting the mandrel to the correct depth). With the shaft-lock A engaged, tighten the collet nut D securely (turn clockwise) with wrench I.

NOTE: If the mandrel does not fit into the collet, it is possible that the collet is stuck within the collet nut. If this happens, remove the collet nut from the tool by continuing to twist it counterclockwise. If the collet does not separate from the collet nut when removed from the tool, push the shank of the mandrel R into the hole in the collet nut D. This should cause the collet E to pop out of the collet nut.

Re-assemble by placing the collet E into shaft G and twisting the collet nut D clockwise over the collet to tighten it back onto shaft G.

TO MOUNT SANDING DISC 7
Pull spring-loaded sleeve T DOWN towards tool with one hand and hold. With the other hand, align interface U on mandrel with interface W on bottom of sanding disc V.
Place sanding disc on the mandrel to a point just below interface U and twist 90 degrees until the interface W aligns with sleeve T. Release sleeve T. Sanding disc V should lock in place.
! Incorrect seating of sanding disc on mandrel may lead to personal injury or property damage.
To check for proper seating, hold shaft-lock button A and twist the sanding disc V. The sanding disc V will not be able to rotate on mandrel. To remove sanding disc, pull spring-loaded sleeve T DOWN towards tool with one hand, hold sleeve T down while twisting sanding disc V 90 degrees, and remove sanding disc.

TO ATTACH NAIL GUARD ATTACHMENT 8
! Make sure that the mandrel and the sanding disc are mounted properly before mounting the attachment.

  1. Detach clear cap K from the attachment by running the small knobs O on the inside of the clear cap up along height adjustment slot P until they reach the guided opening.
  2. Unlock clamp L.
  3. Open the attachment.
  4. Position the attachment around the threaded nose of the tool and close the attachment together until clamp L is fully engaged.
  5. Turn the whole attachment J clockwise to screw it into place on the threaded nose (make sure that it is securely tightened so that it will not shift positions during use).

Re-attach clear cap K (simply perform step 1 in reverse order). Turn the clear cap so that the small knobs are all the way to the end of slot P (next to number `3′) on the attachment. You will hear the cap click into place when fully installed. Do not force the clear cap out of the guides.

USE

GETTING STARTED
Grooming a pet’s nails for the first time can be a worrisome experience for both the pet and pet owner. By starting early and considering grooming to be part of your pet’s training, your pet will grow used to the experience. First, train your pet to feel comfortable with their paws being touched and handled before exposing them to the rotary tool. One way to do this is to massage their legs, paws, and individual toes for a few minutes at least once a day. Afterwards, create a positive association with this experience by rewarding your pet with its favorite snack. Next, help your pet grow gradually accustomed to the rotary tool. Let your pet sniff the tool while it is turned off. Then, while keeping the tool in your hand, let your pet listen to the sound the tool makes when it is turned on. Gradually work up to having your pet’s toenails touch the rotating sanding disc for less than a second. Do not grind the nails yet; simply let your pet become familiar with the tool. Throughout the acclimation process, continue to praise your pet and reward good behavior with a snack. This process may take a couple of days or weeks.

NAIL ANATOMY 9
Before trimming your pet’s nails, you will need to identify the quick. Illustration 9 shows the basic anatomy of a pet’s toenail. The outer nail is hard and has no feeling because it has no nerve endings. The core of the nail is the quick. It is made up of tiny blood vessels and nerve endings and is very sensitive. The quick is a vein that “feeds” the toenail. Should you cut the quick while trimming a nail, the nail will start to bleed. Light-colored nails are often transparent enough to allow you to see the quick’s pink core. Dark-colored nails may not allow you to see where the quick is located. Pets may have both light and dark colored nails that allow you to estimate the length of the quick. Illustration 9 also shows an estimate of the proper angle at which to trim a pet’s nails. A rule of thumb for the proper angle is 45 degrees upwards from the bottom of the paw.

NAIL GROOMING 10
! Never hold the tool by the attachment. Holding the tool by the attachment could cause it to unexpectedly shift, causing loss of control.
Place the pet’s paw on the ramp Q so that the nail is close to – but not touching – the sanding disc V.
Turn the tool on by sliding switch B to LO’ (1) position, which corresponds to approximately 6500 RPM. Speed settingHI’ can be used too, if this is comfortable for you and your dog. Support the toe and nail in one hand while using the rotary tool in the other hand. This is more comfortable for your pet as it lessens vibration on the paw. Pushing gently on the bottom of the paw’s pad extends the nail slightly for easier grooming. It is important to let the speed of the rotary tool do the work; never apply pressure to the toenail with the spinning sanding disc. Pressure may cause the nail to grow too hot, resulting in discomfort for your pet. The spinning sanding disc should not be kept against the nail longer than three seconds at a time. Instead of focusing on completing one nail at a time, it is recommended to briefly trim each nail on one paw, and then the other, in several passes. This allows time for the nails to cool. You may repeat this process as needed. Trim nails so that they almost touch the ground when your pet is walking. Turn the tool off by sliding switch B to `OFF’ (0) position.

SAFETY TIPS
Some pets may become nervous in the presence of the tool so it is best to secure your pet. The operator will need both hands to groom the nails so it may be helpful to have another person assist in restraining your pet. If hair is accidentally caught in the rotary tool, Immediately turn off the tool and untangle the hair from the tool. For pets with particularly long hair, use an old sock to cover the toe, foot, and leg of the pet and isolate the nail. Push the nail out through a small opening at the tip of the sock to groom the nail. Keep styptic powder on hand in case of bleeding. Styptic powder is available at most pet supply stores. Follow the directions on the packaging for proper use instructions.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

TO AVOID ACCIDENTS, ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE TOOL AND/OR CHARGER FROM THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING

The tool can 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 the tool by inserting pointed objects through an opening. Remove the pet grooming attachment from the tool as needed to clean out any nail dust or debris. Wash only the attachment with warm water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth before reinstalling on tool.

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.
