Wear ear-muffs.
The impact of noise can cause damage to hearing.
Total vibration values (vector sum of three directions) determined in accordance with EN 60745.
Vibration emission value a_h ≤ 2.5 m/s² K uncertainty = 1.5 m/s²
The stated vibration emission levels and stated noise emission values were measured in accordance with a set of standardized criteria and can be used to compare one power tool with another.
The stated vibration emission levels and stated noise emission values can also be used to make an initial assessment of exposure.

The vibration and noise emission levels may vary from the level specified during actual use, depending on the way in which the power tool is used, especially the type of workpiece it is used for.

Keep the noise emissions and vibrations to a minimum.

• Only use appliances which are in perfect working order.
• Service and clean the appliance regularly.
• Adapt your working style to suit the appliance.
• Do not overload the appliance.
• Have the appliance serviced whenever necessary.
• Switch the appliance off when it is not in use.
• Wear protective gloves.

Residual risks
Even if you use this electric power tool in accordance with instructions, certain residual risks cannot be rules out. The following hazards may arise in connection with the equipment's construction and layout:

1. Lung damage if no suitable protective dust mask is used.
2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection is used.
3. Health damage caused by hand-arm vibrations if the equipment is used over a prolonged period or is not properly guided and maintained.

Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the mains data.

Always pull the power plug before making adjustments to the equipment.

Taking out the accessories

To be able to take out the accessories you must pull the accessory mount (a) upwards.

Inserting the various tools

Before inserting a tool (and before each tool change) switch of the drive unit and pull the power plug.

1. Press the locking knob (4) and turn the collet chuck until the bolt locks into place.
2. Remove the clamp nut (3), insert the matching clamping sleeve (11) and refit the clamp nut.
3. Insert the required tool into the sleeve and tighten the collet chuck nut (3).
   The projection is not allowed to exceed 20 mm!

Installing the flexible shaft

(Figs. 3/5a)

• Unscrew the cover (5) from the front of the equipment.
• Undo the collet chuck nut (3).
• Insert the internal schaft (a) of the flexible shaft into the collet chuck (3).
• Tighten the collet chuck nut (3).
• Now tighten the ring (b) on the multi-tool.

Inserting the various tools in the flexible shaft (Fig. 5b)

1. Press the locking pin (8) into the hole in the flexible shaft (13) and turn the shaft until the pin latches in place.
2. Remove the clamp nut (3), insert the matching clamping sleeve (11) and refit the clamp nut.
3. Insert the required tool into the clamping sleeve as far as the stop and screw the collet chuck nut tight.

Using the stand

• Fit the stand to a workbench
• The stand is adjustable in height and can be adjusted as shown in Fig. 6.
• The multi-tool can now be attached to the stand.

Using the tool for the first time

• Make sure that the drive unit is switched off.
• Check that the mains voltage specified on the rating plate of the power supply unit is the same as your mains supply. Only then should you insert the plug of the power supply unit into a socket-outlet.

ON/OFF switch

(Fig. 3)
Turn on the equipment by setting the On/Off switch (1) to "I".
Turn off the equipment by setting the On/Off switch (1) to "0".

Speed selector

(Fig. 3)
The required speed can be set with the speed control (2).
The correct speed depends on the tool used and the type of material being processed.

Directions for use

• With small milling cutters / grinding pins: Use a high speed.
• With large milling cutters / grinding pins: Use a low speed.

Tips

• Exert only moderate pressure on the workpiece and allow it to be processed at uniform speed.
• You will not finish your work sooner by exerting heavy pressure. On the contrary, heavy pressure will cause the drive unit to slow down or stop and will overload the motor.
• For your own safety, use a vise or screw clamp to secure small workpieces.
• Precision work/engraving: Hold the drive unit like a pen (single-handed).
• Rough work: Hold the drive unit like the handle of a hammer (two-handed).

Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Always pull out the mains power plug before starting any cleaning work.

Cleaning

• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
• We recommend that you clean the device immediately each time you have finished using it.
