Series SR Reversible Motor Instructions (only)
The assembly, operation and maintenance instructions contained in this Manual apply to the
Series SR Reversible Motor. The following additional operating procedures and precautions
should be followed when using the Series SR, SRB, and SRM Reversible Motors:
Never change motor direction while it is running. Changing motor direction while
•
running can damage motor or flexible shaft or lead to premature wear.
To turn motor off, remove foot from foot pedal speed control, or turn dial speed control to "off"
position, and set rocker switch to "off" (center) position on motor.
Wait for motor to stop rotating and then put rocker switch into forward or reverse position.
Always securely tighten chuck nut or chuck jaws of handpiece with wrench or chuck key so
•
that it will not come loose in the reverse or forward operating directions. Also, be sure to
insert the shank of the accessory as far as possible into the collet or chuck to give it
maximum support.
Use the forward motor direction for fluted burs and cutters. Most will cut efficiently only when
•
turning in this direction. Mounted abrasive points, sanding bands, tungsten carbide burs,
buffs, and brushes can be used in either direction.
For added safety and comfort while using this power tool for carving or other applications, it
•
is recommended that you wear a heavy canvas or leather apron. It will protect you from dust,
debris and chips as well as help prevent injury if the handpiece slips off the workpiece. It will
also help prevent loose clothing from getting caught in a rotating cutter, bur or other accessory.

able from your dealer, woodcarving clubs, and your local library. Foredom offers a large variety
