• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and
other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such as
those dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.

Thank you for purchasing the Dremel Trio.
This tool was designed to tackle a wide variety
of projects in and around the home. The
Dremel 6800 completes tasks quicker and
more efficiently than a series of other tools that
would be needed to complete a job or project.
This tool is also compact, ergonomic, and cuts
virtually all common household materials.
The spiral action of the Trio provides a number
of key benefits. First, when starting an interior
cut the plunge tip allows for quick and easy
plunge cuts. Second, when making intricate or
tight radius cuts the Trio provides superior
control and ergonomics. The 36 Cutting
Technology allows you to make a cut in any
direction without needing to reposition your
body or the workpiece. And unlike
reciprocating tools, the cutting accessory will
not flex when making curve cuts so you will
also create a true square cut. The high speed
spiral action creates a superior finish since it
does not tear and rip material like alternative
reciprocating tools that you would have had to
rely on in the past. Finally, the Trio is also the
first tool to offer sanding and routing
accessories to shape a cut or to finish it off with
a finely routed edge.
To maximize the versatility of the tool, the
handle can be repositioned to provide
comfortable, stable cutting on a flat surface or
an ergonomic solution for cutting on a wall or
ceiling. The tool also comes with a metal base
that telescopes up and down to position the bit
perfectly into the material for cutting, sanding,
or routing.
The Dremel Trio introduces a new set of
accessories to the Dremel family that were
specifically designed to be exclusively used
with this tool. The unique design of the Dremel
Trio coupled with the ability for the tool to
articulate requires a more robust shank size
than most rotary tools. A unique set of 3/16”

Your tool also features a 2 position articulating
handle. To adjust, depress articulation button
and move head to desired position (Fig. 3 or 4).
The articulation position (Fig. 3) is
recommended for standard operations on a flat
surface. While in the 18 position (Fig. 4) it’s
excellent for working in tight places, on a wall or
ceiling.
Make sure articulation button
clicks back out to lock the
handle before turning the tool on.
Make sure the pivoting handle is securely
locked in the desired position. Operation when
not secured properly may result in unexpected
movement of the pivoting handle and could
cause injury.

Certain materials, (some plastics and non
ferrous metals, for ex ample) require a relatively
slow speed because at high speed the friction
of the accessory generates heat and may
cause damage to the material.
Higher speeds are better for cutting, routing,
shaping, cutting dadoes or rabbets in wood.
The point to remember is this: Many
applications and accessories in our line will
provide the best performance at full speed, but
for certain materials, applications, and
accessories, you need slower speeds.
To aid you in determining the optimum
operational speed for differ ent materials and
different accessories, we have construct ed a
series of tables that appear in the accessories
section. By referring to these tables, you can
discover the recommended speeds for each
type of accessory. Look these tables over and
become familiar with them.
Ultimately, the best way to determine the
correct speed for work on any material is to
practice for a few minutes on a piece of scrap,
even after referring to the chart. You can
quickly learn that a slower or faster speed is
more effective just by observing what hap pens
as you make a pass or two at different speeds.
When making practice cuts start at the highest
speed to gauge control. Then reduce the
speed slight ly to get the optimum working
speed.
Some rules of thumb in regard to speed:
1. Plastic and other materials that melt at low
temperatures should be cut at low speeds.
2. When sanding, start at a low speed to
guage material removal rate.
3. Wood should be cut at high speed.
4. Aluminum, copper alloys, lead alloys, zinc
alloys and tin may be cut at various speeds,
depending on the type of cutting being
done. Use paraffin or other suitable
lubricant on the cutter to prevent the cut
material from adhering to the cutter teeth.
Increasing the pressure on the tool is not
the answer when it is not performing as you
think it should. If the tool is not cutting as
fast as you think it should, first try changing
the speed of the tool or the accessory.
Do not force the tool, let the tool do the work.
Leaning on the tool does not help and could
slow the tool if the over current protection
threshold is exceeded.

%A2= After completing your cut, turn off the
tool and carefully remove it from the material.
Do not attempt to use this tool to make cutouts
around any fixture or opening which has live
electrical wires, or any wall which may have
live electrical wiring behind it, as the bit could
conduct current to the tool, creating an
electrocution hazard for the operator. Shut off
breakers or remove fuses to disconnect the
circuit. Always hold the tool by its
thermoplastic housing, and always wear eye
protection when operating the tool.
!"& Because of the rotating cutting action
of the bit, there will be a slight pull when
cutting. The slower you cut, the more control
you have. Excessive pressure or fast cutting
will cause excessive heat and may shorten
the life of the bit.
!"& When cutting on a vertical surface,
avoid ending your cut at the bottom of the
hole. If possible, start and end your cut at the
top so the scrap part will not drop onto the
rotating bit. Turn the tool off and remove it
from the material.

After assembling the bit into the tool as
described earlier, it will be necessary to review
the instructions provided here and make some
practice cut-outs with this tool before attempting
an actual job. The best method is to take some
scrap pieces and nail or screw them in place
over wall studs which have an electrical box or
other feature in place. A few such exercises will
give you the necessary practice to make clean,
professional cutouts around whatever is behind
the drywall you are installing.

• For maximum control use a slow feed rate
of cut.
• For maximum control place a second hand
on the front of the tool or on the rear of the
foot.
• For straightest possible cut use straight
edge guide or fence.
• When using a fence, position it on the left
side of the foot.
• Securely fix your workpieces with clamps.
• When using a straight edge guide, position
it on the right side of tool.
• When cutting most materials steer the tool
in a clock-wise direction. Exception: when
tracing an outlet steer counter clock-wise.
• When plunge cutting into ceramic wall tile
start at a 45° angle.
• When using sanding drums and router bits
it is recommended to make less aggressive
more frequent passes through the material
to extend the tool and accessory life.
• Accessories rotate in a clockwise direction
which causes the tool to wander ot the left.
