Ball Bearing Power Tools and Handpieces For Your Own Safety: • Read Owner's Manual before operating your Foredom Power Tool. • Always wear eye protection while using power tools. • Only use accessories rated for use at the maximum speed (20,000 RPM) of these tools.
• Always wear proper eye and face protection. Safety glasses or face shields should be worn whenever you operate a Foredom or any power tool to prevent serious eye or face injuries. • Always tie up long hair. Loose long hair poses a serious hazard, and must be tucked under a cap or hair net to prevent it from becoming entangled in rotating parts.
