WARNING:
Hfyou are changing a cutter immedi-
ately after use, be careful not to touch the collet nut,
cutter, or collet with your hands or fingers. They will
get burned because of the heat buildup from cutting.
Always use the wrench provided.
[] If installing the cutter for the first time, it can be in-
stalled once the collet nut is loose. If changing cutters,
the cutter win easily slip from the collet after loosening
coliet nut.
NOTE: The tip of the cutter has a protective wax coat-
ing that must be removed before first-time use. Simply
peel off the wax coating and be sure that all traces of
wax are removed before using the trimmer.
[] The collet is machined to precision tolerances to fit
cutters with 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) diameter shanks.
[] With the trimmer stil! upside down on a workbench,
insert the shank of the cutter into the collet. The shank
of the cutter should be close to but not touching the
bottom of the collet. This aNows for expansion when
the cutter gets hot. A clearance of 1/16 in. is adequate.
[] Tighten the collet nut securely by turning clockwise
with the wrench provided as shown in figure 2.

If the collet nut is not tightened se-
curely, the cutter may come out during use, causing
