Dremel Stylus Instructions

Battery Charging

• 1

  Run the motor until the battery completely discharges and the bit stops turning.

• 2

  Press the "On/Off" button to turn the tool off.

• 3

  Slide the bottom of the handle into the battery charger. Plug the battery charger into an electrical receptacle. The green battery indicator light on the rear of the charger will turn on to show that the battery is charging.

• 4

  Remove the tool when the green light turns off. The battery charger automatically stops when the charge cycle is complete.

Changing Bits

• 5

  Press the "On/Off" button to turn the tool off. Slide the shaft lock button on top of the Dremel toward the front of the tool.

• 6

  Use an adjustable wrench to turn the collet nut on the nose counterclockwise about three turns to loosen it.

• 7

  Pull the bit or accessory straight out of the collet nut and slide a different one into the collet nut.

• 8

  Tighten the collet nut clockwise with an adjustable wrench.

Using the Tool

• 9

  Put on safety glasses.

• 10

  Grasp the Dremel in your hand, with the bottom of the handle in your palm and your thumb and forefinger on the sides of the tool. Rest the bottom of the tool handle on a scrap piece of the surface you are working on for the best stability.

• 11

  Press the "On/Off" button to turn the tool on.

• 12

  Turn the speed controller on the rear of the tool clockwise to a higher number to increase the speed or turn it counterclockwise to a lower number for a lower speed. Cut plastic at a lower speed to prevent melting the material. Cut wood at a high speed so the tool can penetrate the material and cut through it quickly without binding.

• 13

  Make several passes to polish, buff or clean a surface with a Dremel. Do not press the tip down hard on the surface, but let the tool perform the work in small increments until the project is complete. You may benefit from turning the speed higher in such situations.

• 14

  Turn the speed control to four or lower, when you have a wire brush accessory on the Dremel. This helps to keep the brush from being damaged.

• 15

  Press the "On/Off" button to turn the Stylus off after you complete your project.
