then feed the tool to your right. If the

workpiece is between the tool and your body,

then feed the tool to your left. Feeding the

tool in the wrong direction causes the cutting

edge of the bit to climb out of the work and

pull the tool in the direction of this feed.
Never use dull or damaged bits. Sharp

bits must be handled with care. Damaged

bits can snap during use. Dull bits require

more force to push the tool, possibly causing

the bit to break.
Never touch the bit during or immediately

after the use. After use the bit is too hot to

be touched by bare hands.

Never lay the tool down until the motor

has come to a complete standstill. The

spinning bit can grab the surface and pull the

tool out of your control.
Never use bits that have a cutting

diameter greater than the opening in the

base.
Do not use the tool for drilling purposes.

This tool is not intended to be used with drill

bits.
Always use the tool with the depth guide

securely attached and positioned flat

against material being cut. The guide

securely positioned on the material improves

Additional Safety Warnings

GFCI and personal protection devices like

electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will

further enhance your personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC

power supply. While the tool may appear to

work, the electrical components of the AC

rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard

to the operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil

and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely

control the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule

for your tool. When cleaning a tool be

careful not to disassemble any portion of

the tool since internal wires may be

misplaced or pinched or safety guard return

springs may be improperly mounted.

Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,

carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may

damage plastic parts.
Risk of injury to user. The power cord must only

be serviced by a Rotozip Factory Service

Center or Autho rized Rotozip Service Station.

Some dust created by power

sanding, sawing, grinding,

drilling, and other construction activities

contains chemicals known to cause cancer,

birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and

other masonry products, and

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-

treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies,

depending on how often you do this type of

work. To reduce your exposure to these

chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and

work with approved safety equipment, such as

those dust masks that are specially designed

to filter out microscopic particles.
