machine at a full 1/3 HP. TX has a permanent magnet DC motor that features the
latest in flex shaft technology. This ball bearing model utilizes advanced rare

motor) that deliver more torque at the low end and throughout the entire speed

the cutting tool, drill, or bur under any load. Includes 39" flex shaft. Speed range: 0-15,000rpm. 50/60Hz. 115V.
TXR Foot Rheostat sold separately. The TX motor also accepts the
SXR-1 foot rheostat or the EMX manual speed controller. Backed by a two-year
manufacturer's warranty.

Foredom TX Tool Tips
Always wear safety glasses and or a face shield when using rotary power tools. Regular eyeglasses do not provide sufficient protection.
Ties, scarves, jewelry and long hair pose a hazard when using rotary power tools.
Accessories used at faster than the recommended speed can become damaged, and hazardous to you and others in the work area. Always check the speed rating.
If an accessory appears to be bent, loose, vibrating or out of balance do not continue to use it. Use a clean sharp accessory that is recommended for the material you are working on. Let the speed of the tool do the work. Do not force the tool or use excessive side pressure.
