![]() It's also important to consider what you're doing. If you're holding the tool more like a golf club, move your hands back slightly so they're on the body of the tool, not over the vents. You may also consider the Flex Shaft Attachment – it take the weight of the tool out of your hand completely. If you're holding the tool like a pencil, consider the use of a Detailer's Grip so you have optimal control and airflow. You may actually hold the tool near those vents, but we discourage you from wrapping your hand around the tool in a way that would COVER those vents. The air that is running through the tool has to escape through those vents. The vents on the front or nose end of the tool are output vents. The vents on the cord end of the tool are air intake vents. ![]() There are reasons this could happen and some things you can do to prevent it. The benefit in doing so is a better run with the tool – more comfort and control when you're operating the tool, more consistent wear on the accessory, and of course better results. Sometimes you have to do this several times to get things fully balanced. When you turn the tool on, if you're getting excessive wobble, turn the tool off, loosen the accessory, pull it out and turn it a quarter turn and reseat it. Make sure you don't tighten on any actual fluting – accessories are not designed to be held by the fluting – but by the shank. ![]() Our advice is to insert the accessory as deeply as possible into the collet/collet nut or chuck, then start to tighten things down. Properly seating an accessory is really a critical step to reducing or eliminating run out. Finally, if the tool is operating properly with those elements in place, now consider your accessory. Secure those on the tool and check it out. If you're using a collet and collet nut, do the same thing. When you thread that onto the tool, it should be closing evenly. How is the tool running? If you detect a wobble, we may need to take a look at your chuck. ![]() If the tool seems to be running smoothly, turn it off, add the chuck, secure it and turn the tool on. The tolerances on our tools help us manufacture a tool that is not prone to run out – but we are smart enough to never say never. If you detect something, that tool should be submitted to us for evaluation. To trouble shoot that for yourself, start by taking everything off the tool – remove any accessory, remove the chuck or the collet and collet nut. There could be a few things contributing to that. ![]()
