BALANCING ACCESSORIES
For precision work, it is important that all accessories
be properly balanced. To balance an accessory, slightly
loosen the collet nut and give the accessory or collet a 1/4
turn. You should be able to tell by the sound and feel if
the accessory is running in balance. Continue adjusting
in this fashion until the best balance is achieved. Replace
accessories if they become damaged or unbalanced.
LEARNING TO USE THE ROTARY TOOL
Hold the pen in your hand and get used to its weight,
balance, and the taper of the housing. This taper permits
the pen to be grasped like a pencil.
