Additional Tips in Using the Dremel 8200-228 Cordless Circular Tool

By Brian Bell


Here are some more suggestions and reminders for when you are using your Dremel 8200 circular tool. Understanding these ought to make your initiatives easier, less dangerous, and more effective.

Always us the collet size which fits the shank size the item you are going to use. There are Four different collet dimensions (1/32", 1/16", 3/32", and 1/8") available for the rotary tool. The actual 1/8" size collet is generally included in most tool packages.
The actual 8200 comes with a built-in "hanger" that you can use to hang up your rotary device when it is not in use. When you need to use your rotary tool, just click the hanger back in place on our bodies of the circular tool.

Make sure that your connected accessory is within balance on your rotary tool before you use it. After attaching your item, just turn on the circular tool and you should be able to tell from the feel and the seem whether the attached accessory is within balance. To fix an discrepancy, simply release the collet nut, twist the actual accessory a little, and retighten the collet nut. Then recheck the balance through restarting the rotary device. You may need to perform these steps a couple of times until you are pleased with the balance.

When using cable brushes, by no means set the actual operating speed of the rotary tool at greater than Fifteen,000 RPMs. Pieces of the wire brush may come loose during operation and be embedded in your skin. In addition, when you initially attach a wire brush to your Dremel, turn on the Dremel and let it run for about a minute before utilizing it. This 60-second warm up period ought to shake totally free any pieces of wire around the brush that are loose.

When using your tool for serious grinding or when using a cutoff steering wheel, grasp the body of the Dremel like you would maintain a fishing fishing rod - with your thumb on the top near the OFF/ON switch, the body of the tool resting in the palm of your hand, and the other 4 fingers acquiring the left side of the tool.

Setting your own rotary tool at a speed greater than 15,000 RPMs when using a bristle brush, may damage the comb.

When working with plastic, begin your tool at a low rate associated with speed and gradually increase the speed until you see the plastic begin to dissolve. Then reduce your tool's speed a little. This will give you the optimum working speed for your piece of plastic.

When the 3 lighting on the energy gauge start flashing "off as well as on" that indicates your circular tool's battery has become too hot for use. Just turn off your tool, take a break, and let your tool cool down. (Be aware: If the 3 lights are pulsating "side to side" or just 1 mild is pulsating "off and on", that means that your battery needs to be recharged.)

Just like with most cutting tools, by no means turn on your own Dremel with it touching the material you will work on. Instead, start your Dremel and allow it to reach the complete speed you set it for before you begin in order to cut/polish/sand/grind/etc the material.

If your tool bit binds up within the material you are working on, don't worry. Your Dremel's motor will stop instantly (a nice function). Once you are in a position to unbind the tool's bit from the materials, the rotary tool will begin up again automatically.

I really hope these tips and reminders help!
