How to use

Hold the tool steadily with both hands when precision is required and maintain a consistent pressure without forcing the accessory. Allow the accessory to perform the work and pause periodically to check progress and to avoid overheating the motor or the workpiece. After finishing, turn off the tool and disconnect from the power source before changing accessories or performing maintenance.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and a dust mask, select the correct accessory and speed for the material, and keep ventilation or dust extraction when sanding or cutting. For prolonged tasks, give the tool short rests to prevent overheating and inspect accessories regularly for wear or damage.
