INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Dremel multitool that gives you an ultimate
performance when working on detailed and intricate tasks. This product
was designed for the many Dremel users who passionately use their
multitool daily and with their wishes and specifications in mind. You will
appreciate the many applications that this multitool can easily handle.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Dremel multitool is a high quality precision tool that allows you to
perform a large variety of tasks. This multitool is intended to function as
a grinder, carver, engraver, sander, wire brush, cleaner/polisher or cut-off
tool. Refer to our online catalogue for the wide range of original Dremel
accessories and attachments you can use.
The Dremel 4200 is the FIRST multitool that easily changes accessories
without using a wrench. It uses a fully integrated lever mechanism
that clamps the accessory. In addition, this multitool is equipped with a
high performance motor with electronic feedback that allows the tool to
maintain its speed under load conditions. It also provides a "soft start",
which will reduce the stresses in case of a high torque start.

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNINGS
GENERAL
a. Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
b. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term
“power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded)
power tool or batery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite
accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in
the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a. Power tool plug must match the outlet. Never modify the plug
in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling
or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or tangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of electric shock.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use
an earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) protected supply. Use of an
earth leakage circuit breaker reduces the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense
when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you
are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-
position before connecting to power source and/ or battery pack,
picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power
tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power
tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on
and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery
pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
