Instructions:
1. Please ensure necessary precautions & wear appropriate PPE.
2. Prepare the cleaning area by protecting or removing the parts not to be cleaned.
3. Select the appropriate size of bore brush for the task at hand. Using the wrong size may damage the tools and/or parts.
4. Use the bore brush only on a power drill, not an impact driver. Impact driver may cause damage to the tools or parts.
5. Set the drill to run at a low speed to avoid high torques. Low speed is sufficient to effectively clean the parts or surfaces.
6. Make sure the drill is set to run in the clockwise direction as indicated on tag. The brushes are not designed to run counterclockwise.
7. When cleaning the inside of pipes, fittings, barrels, tubes, etc., align the brush to their axes.
8. Avoid applying too much unsymmetrical lateral force to the brush.
9. Keep the drill running while inserting the brush and removing it. Do not reverse the rotation direction of the drill at any point during the cleaning process.
