Learning To Use the Tool
Getting the most out of your oscillating tool is
a matter of learning how to let the speed and
the feel of the tool in your hands work for
you.
The first step in learning to use the tool is to
get the “feel” of it. Hold it in your hand and
feel its weight and balance (Fig. 11).
Depending on the application, you will need
to adjust your hand position to achieve
optimum comfort and control. The unique
comfort grip on the body of the tool allows
for added comfort and control during use.
Always hold the tool with two hands. When
holding tool, do not cover the air vents with
your hand. Blocking the air vents could cause
the motor to overheat.
IMPORTANT! Practice on scrap material first
to see how the tool’s high-speed action
performs. Keep in mind that your tool will
perform best by allowing the speed, along with
the correct accessory, do the work for you. Be
careful not to apply too much pressure.
Instead, lower the oscillating accessory lightly
to the work surface and allow it to touch the
point at which you want to begin. Concentrate
on guiding the tool over the work using very
little pressure from your hand. Allow the
accessory to do the work.
Usually it is better to make a series of passes
with the tool rather than to do the entire job
with one pass. To make a cut, for example,
pass the tool back and forth over the work. Cut
a little material on each pass until you reach
the desired depth.

Disconnect battery pack from tool before making any assembly,
adjustments or changing accessories. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
