Work area safety
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
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.
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
Power tool plugs 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.
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.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
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 entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
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.
If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of
an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
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.
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

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.
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 energizing power tools that have the
switch on invites accidents.
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.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-
related hazards.
Power tool use and care
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.
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.
Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
b
efore making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tools operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting
accessory contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric
shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform. Holding the work by hand or
against your body leaves it unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
Do not drill, fasten or break into existing
walls or other blind areas where electrical
wiring may exist. If this situation is
unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit
breakers feeding this worksite.
Use a metal detector to determine if there
are gas or water pipes hidden in the work
area or call the local utility company for
assistance before beginning the operation.
Striking or cutting into a gas line will result in
explosion. Water entering an electrical device
may cause electrocution.
Always hold the tool firmly with both hands
for maximum control. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables better

control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Do
not reach under the material being cut. The
p
roximity of the blade to your hand is hidden
from your sight.
Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent
blade can break easily or cause kickback.
Exercise extreme caution when handling
the accessories. The accessories are very
sharp.
Wear protective gloves when changing
cutting accessories. Accessories become
hot after prolonged usage.
Use thick cushioned gloves and limit the
exposure time by taking frequent rest
periods. Vibration caused by the tool may be
harmful to the hands and arms.
Before scraping, check workpiece for nails.
If there are nails, either remove them or set
them well below intended finished surface.
Striking a nail with accessory edge could
cause the tool to jump.
Do not wet sand with this tool. Liquids
entering the motor housing is an electrical
shock hazard.
Never work in area which is soaked with a
liquid, such as a solvent or water, or
dampened such as newly applied
wallpaper. There is an electrical shock
hazard when working in such conditions with a
power tool and heating of the liquid caused by
scraping action may cause harmful vapors to
be emitted from workpiece.
Always wear eye protection and a dust
mask for dusty applications and when
sanding overhead. Sanding particles can be
absorbed by your eyes and inhaled easily
and may cause health complications.
Use special precautions when sanding
chemically pressure treated lumber, paint
that may be lead based, or any other
materials that may contain carcinogens. A
suitable breathing respirator and protective
clothing must be worn by all persons entering
the work area. Work area should be sealed by
plastic sheeting and persons not protected
should be kept out until work area is
thoroughly cleaned.
Do not use sandpaper intended for larger
sanding pads. Larger sandpaper will extend
beyond the sanding pad causing snagging,
tearing of the paper or kick-back. Extra paper
extending beyond the sanding pad can also
cause serious lacerations.
Additional Safety Warnings
Always inspect blade for damage
(breakage, cracks) before each use. Never
use if damage is suspected.
GFCI and personal protection devices like
electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will
further enhance your personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC
power supply. While the tool may appear to
work, the electrical components of the AC
rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard
to the operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil
and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely
control the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule
for your tool. When cleaning a tool be
careful not to disassemble any portion of
the tool since internal wires may be
misplaced or pinched or safety guard return
springs may be improperly mounted.
Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may
damage plastic parts.
Risk of injury to user. The power cord must only
be serviced by a Dremel Service Facility.
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• 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.

INSTALLING AND REMOVING
SANDING SHEETS
Your backing pad uses hook-and-loop backed
sandpaper, which firmly grips the backing pad
when applied with moderate pressure.
1. Align the sanding sheet and press it onto
the sanding plate by hand.
2. Firmly press the power tool with the
sanding sheet against a flat surface and
briefly switch the power tool on. This will
promote good adhesion and helps to
prevent premature wear.
3. To change, merely peel off the old sanding
sheet, remove dust from the backing pad if
necessary, and press the new sanding
sheet in place.
After considerable service the backing pad
surface will become worn, and the backing pad
must be replaced when it no longer offers a
firm grip. If you are experiencing premature
wear out of the backing pad facing, decrease
the amount of pressure you are applying
during operation of the tool.
For maximum use of abrasive, rotate pad 120
degrees when tip of abrasive becomes worn.

Introduction
Operating Instructions
LEARNING TO USE THE TOOL
Getting the most out of your oscillating tool is a
matter of learning how to let the speed and the
feel of the tool in your hands work for you.
The first step in learning to use the tool is to
get the “feelof it. Hold it in your hand and feel
its weight and balance (Fig. 5). Depending on
the application, you will need to adjust your
hand position to achieve optimum comfort and
control. The unique comfort grip on the body of
the tool allows for added comfort and control
during use.
When holding tool, do not cover the air vents
with your hand. Blocking the air vents could
cause the motor to overheat.
IMPORTANT! Practice on scrap material first
to see how the tools high-speed action
performs. Keep in mind that your tool will
2610039843 11-15 VC60_VC60 11/4/15 11:14 AM Page 9
-10-
perform best by allowing the speed, along with
the correct accessory, do the work for you. Be
careful not to apply too much pressure.
Instead, lower the oscillating accessory lightly
to the work surface and allow it to touch the
point at which you want to begin. Concentrate
on guiding the tool over the work using very
little pressure from your hand. Allow the
accessory to do the work.
Usually it is better to make a series of passes
with the tool rather than to do the entire job
with one pass. To make a cut, for example,
pass the tool back and forth over the work. Cut
a little material on each pass until you reach
the desired depth.
SLIDE "ON/OFF" SWITCH
The tool is switched "ON" by the slide switch
located on the topside of the motor housing.
TO TURN THE TOOL "ON", slide the switch
button forward.
TO TURN THE TOOL "OFF", slide the switch
button backward.
VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL DIAL
This tool is equipped with a variable speed
control dial (Fig. 6). The speed may be
controlled during operation by presetting the
dial in any one of ten positions.
OPERATING SPEEDS
The Dremel Velocity consists of an AC
universal motor and oscillating mechanism to
perform applications such as cutting, grout
removal, scraping, sanding and more.
The Dremel Velocity™ has a high oscillating
motion of 10,000 - 16,000 /min (OPM). The
high speed motion allows the Dremel
Velocity to achieve with excellent results.
The oscillating motion allows the dust to fall
to the surface rather than slinging particles
into the air.
To achieve the best results when working
with different materials, set the variable
speed control to suit the job (See Speed
Chart on Page 12 and 13 for guidance) . To
select the right speed for the accessory in
use, practice with scrap material first.
NOTE: Speed is affected by voltages
changes. A reduced incoming voltage will
slow the OPM of the tool, especially at the
lowest setting. If your tool appears to be
running slowly, increase the speed setting
accordingly. The tool may not start at the
lowest switch setting in areas where outlet
voltage is less than 120 volts. Simply move
the speed setting to a higher position to
begin operation.
The variable speed control settings are
marked on the speed control dial. The
settings for approximate /min (OPM) are:
Dial Setting Speed Range
/min (OPM)
1 10,000-11,000
2 11,000-12,000

CONTROL FOOT
The Dremel Velocity™ includes an integrated
control foot to help with accuracy and control
while making cuts in sheet materials up to 3/4
thick. The control foot allows you to rest the
tool on the work piece while making rip cuts,
rather than hovering the tool.
To open the control foot, use the finger tabs
on both sides of the control foot to pull the foot
open. As you pull the foot open, you will feel a
click indicating that the foot is fully opened and
ready to use.
To close the control foot, press the control
foot release button on the bottom of your tool
to disengage the foot, allowing you to push the
foot back to the closed position.

FIG. 7
For all accessories, work
with the accessory away
from the body. Never position hand near or
directly in front of working area. Always hold
the tool with both hands and wear protective
gloves.
CUTTING
Saw blades are ideal for making precise cuts
in tight areas, close to edges or flush to a
surface.
Select a medium to high speed for making
initial plunge, start off at medium speed for
increased control. After making your initial cut,
you can increase speed for faster cutting
ability.
Flush cutting blades are
intended to make precise cuts to
allow for installation of flooring or
wall material. When flush cutting
it is important not to force the tool during the
plunge cut. If you experience a strong vibration
in your hand during the plunge cut, this
indicates that you are applying too much
pressure. Back the tool out and let the speed
of the tool do the work. While keeping the teeth
of the blade in the work surface, move the
back of the tool in a slow sideways motion.
This motion will help expedite the cut.
When making a flush cut it is always a good
idea to have a piece of scrap material (tile or
wood) supporting the blade. If you need to rest
the flush cutting blade on a delicate surface,
you should protect the surface with cardboard
or masking tape.
The flat saw blade is ideal for
making precise cuts in wood,
plaster, drywall material.
Applications include cutting openings in flooring
for venting, repairing damaged flooring, cutting
openings for electrical boxes. The blade works
best on softer woods such as pine. For harder
woods, the blade life will be limited.
Select a medium to high speed.
The flat saw blade can also be used for
window restoration making glazing easy to
remove. The saw blade can be placed directly
against the edge of the window frame, guiding
the blade through the glazing.
Panel Cutting Accessory
Model VC490
The panel blade has been
designed for making straight
cuts in sheet materials, such as
plywood, drywall and cement
board up to ¾” thick. (Refer to chart for cutting
depths.) For best results, this blade should be
used with the tools control foot in the open
position. This blade has a more rigid design to
help improve accuracy and control when
making these types of cuts. When making
cuts in sheet materials it is important not to
force the tool during the cut. If you experience
strong vibration in your hand during the cut,
this indicates that you are applying too much
pressure. Back the tool out of the cut and let
the speed of the tool do the work.
Pipe and 2x4 Cutting Accessory
Model VC494
The pipe and 2x4 cutting blade
has been designed to cut
through thick materials, such as
a 2x4, as well as tubing, such as
conduit, copper and PVC piping. For best
results, this blade should be used with the
tools control foot in the closed position.
2610039843 11-15 VC60_VC60 11/4/15 11:14 AM Page 11
-12-
CORRECT: Always cut with a smooth back
and forth motion. Never force the blade.
Apply light pressure to guide the tool.
INCORRECT: Do not twist the tool while
cutting.This can cause the blade to bind.
FIG. 8
CUTTING WITH THE CONTROL FOOT
Cutting with the control foot in the open
position gives you a more stable cut, allowing
for added accuracy and control when making
rip cuts in sheet materials such as wood,
cement board and drywall. Do not use tool
with control foot in opened position when
cutting materials exceeding 3/4” thick.
When open, the control foot has been
designed to sit at the optimal angle for cutting.
It’s important that the cutting accessory you
are using is mounted in the correct position on
the tools interface. For best cutting results,
mount the accessory so that the flat portion of
the accessory holder is visible and between
the open portion in the rear of the accessory
interface, as shown in Figure 9.
When cutting with the control foot open,
always make sure the foot is placed flat on
your work surface (Fig. 10).
CORRECT: Always cut with the control
foot in the proper open position. Make
sure the control foot is flat on your
cutting surface.
INCORRECT: Avoid tipping the control
foot. Always use the control foot on flat
surfaces.

GROUT REMOVAL
Grout removal blades are ideal
for removing damaged or
cracked grout. Grout blades
come in different widths (1/16" and 1/8") to
tackle different grout line widths. Before
selecting a grout blade measure the grout line
width to pick the appropriate blade.
Select a medium to high speed.
To remove the grout, use a back and forth
motion, making several passes along the grout
line. The hardness of the grout will dictate how
many passes are needed. Try and keep the
grout blade aligned with the grout line and be
careful not to apply too much side pressure on
the grout blade during the process. To control
plunge depth use the carbide grit line on the
blade as an indicator. Be careful not to plunge
beyond the carbide grit line to avoid damage to
the backer board material.
The grout blades can handle both sanded and
unsanded grout. If you notice the blade
clogging during the grout removal process, you
can use a brass brush to clean the grit, thus
exposing the grit again.
The grout blade geometry is designed so that
the blade can remove all grout up to the
surface of a wall or corner. This can be
accomplished by ensuring that the segmented
portion of the blade is facing the wall or corner.
SCRAPING
Scrapers are suitable for removing old coats of
varnish or adhesives, removing bonded
carpeting, e.g. on stairs/steps and other
small/medium size surfaces.
Select low to medium speed.
Rigid scrapers are for large area
removal, and harder materials
such as vinyl flooring, carpeting
and tile adhesives. When
removing strong, tacky adhesives, grease the
scraper blade surface with (petroleum jelly
or silicone grease) to reduce gumming up.
The carpet/vinyl flooring removes easier if
it is scored prior to removal so the scraper
blade can move underneath the flooring
material.
Flexible scrapers are used for
hard to reach areas and softer
material such as caulk.
Mount the scraper blade with the logo side
facing up. With the flexible scraper, make sure
that the clamping flange does not make
contact with surface during the scraping
process (a 30 - 45 degree pitch is
recommend). This can be accomplished by
making sure that the tool is at an angle to the
blade. You should be able to see the blade
flex during the scraping process.
If you are removing caulk from a delicate
surface such as a bath tub or tile back splash,
we recommend taping or protecting the
surface that the blade will rest on. Use rubbing
alcohol to clean the surface after the caulk
and/or adhesive is removed.
Turn the tool on and place desired accessory
on the area where material is to be removed.
Begin with light pressure. The oscillating
motion of accessory only occurs when
pressure is applied to the material to be
removed.
Excessive pressure can gouge or damage the
background surfaces (e.g,. wood, plaster).
SANDING
Sanding accessories are suitable
for dry sanding of wood, metal,
surfaces, corners and edges and
hard to reach areas.
Work with the complete surface of the sanding
pad, not only with the tip.
Corners may be finished using the tip or edge
CORRECT: Make sure flexible
scraper blade flexes enough.
INCORRECT: Avoid clamping flange
touching surface when using flexible
scraper blade.

of the selected accessory, which should
occasionally be rotated during use to distribute
the wear on the accessory and backing pad
surface.
Sand with a continuous motion and light
pressure. DO NOT apply excessive pressure -
let the tool do the work. Excessive pressure
will result in poor handling, vibration, and
unwanted sanding marks and premature wear
on the sanding sheet.
Always be certain that smaller workpieces are
securely fastened to a bench or other support.
Larger panels may be held in place by hand on
a bench or sawhorses.
Open-coat aluminum oxide sanding sheets are
recommended for most wood or metal sanding
applications, as this synthetic material cuts
quickly and wears well. Some applications,
such as metal finishing or cleaning, require
special abrasive pads which are available from
your dealer. For best results, use Dremel
sanding accessories which are of superior
quality and are carefully selected to produce
professional quality results with your oscillating
tool.
The following suggestions may be used as a
general guide for abrasive selection, but the
best results will be obtained by sanding a test
sample of the workpiece first.
Grit Application
Coarse For rough wood or metal
sanding, and rust or old
finish removal.
Medium For general wood or metal
sanding
Fine For final finishing of wood,
metal, plaster and other
surfaces.
With the workpiece firmly secured, turn tool on
as described above. Contact the work with the
tool after the tool has reached its full speed,
and remove it from the work before switching
the tool off. Operating your oscillating tool in
this manner will prolong switch and motor life,
and greatly increase the quality of your work.
Move the oscillating tool in long steady strokes
parallel to the grain using some lateral motion
to overlap the strokes by as much as 75%.
DO NOT apply excessive pressure - let the
tool do the work. Excessive pressure will result
in poor handling, vibration, and unwanted
sanding marks.
FIG. 12
CORRECT: Always sand with the pad and
sandpaper flat against the work surface.
Work smoothly in a back and forth motion.
INCORRECT: Avoid tipping the pad.
Always sand flat.
INCORRECT: Avoid sanding with only the
tip of the pad. Keep as much sand paper
in touch with the work surface as possible.
CORRECT: Sand with a smooth back and
forth motion, allowing the weight of the tool
to do the work.

GRINDING
The diamond paper accessory
allows for the Dremel Velocity™ to
be used for grinding away cement,
plaster or thin set. Preparing the surface for tile
replacement is a common application for this
accessory.
The diamond paper needs to be mounted to
the backing pad prior to use.
Select a low to high speed depending on the
material removal rate desired.
The carbide rasp accessory also
allows the Dremel Velocity to
grind away cement, thinset mortar,
plaster, and also wood. This accessory is
commonly used to prepare for tile replacement
or rasping wood to smooth a surface or
remove material.
The speed should be set at high speed for
aggressive material removal or at low speed
for a more detailed removal of material.
Do not apply excessive pressure on the tool-let
it do the work.
Corners may be finished using the tip or edge
of the selected accessory, which should
occasionally be rotated during use to distribute
the wear on the accessory and backing pad
surface.
Grind with a continuous motion and light
pressure. DO NOT apply excessive pressure -
let the tool do the work. Excessive pressure
will result in poor handling, vibration, and
premature wear on the diamond paper sheet.

Veuillez lire tous les avertissements et toutes les consignes de sécuri. Si
l'on n'observe pas ces avertissements et ces consignes de sécurité, il existe un
risque de choc électrique, d'incendie et/ou de blessures corporelles graves.
CONSERVEZ TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS ET TOUTES LES CONSIGNES
DECURITÉ POUR RÉFÉRENCE FUTURE.
Dans les avertissements, le terme « outil électroportatif » se rapporte à votre outil branché sur le secteur (avec fil) ou
à votre outil alimenté par piles (sans fil).
Avertissements raux concernant la sécurité des outils électroportatifs
curité du lieu de travail
Maintenez le lieu de travail propre et bien éclairé.
Les risques daccident sont plus élevés quand on
travaille dans un endroit encombré ou sombre.
Nutilisez pas d’outils électroportatifs dans des
atmosphères explosives, comme par exemple en
présence de gaz, de poussres ou de liquides
inflammables. Les outils électroportatifs produisent
des étincelles qui risquent d’enflammer les poussières
ou les vapeurs.
Éloignez les enfants et les visiteurs quand vous vous
servez d’un outil électroportatif. Vous risquez une
perte de contrôle si on vous distrait.
curité électrique
Les fiches des outils électroportatifs doivent
correspondre à la prise. Il ne faut absolument jamais
modifier la fiche. N’utilisez pas d’adaptateur de prise
avec des outils électroportatifs munis d’une fiche de
terre. Le risque de choc électrique est moindre si on
utilise une fiche non modife sur une prise qui lui
correspond.
Évitez tout contact du corps avec des surfaces reliées
à la terre tels que tuyaux, radiateurs, gazinières ou
frigérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique augmente
si votre corps est relié à la terre.
N’exposez pas les outils électroportatifs à la pluie ou
à lhumidité. Si de leau pénètre dans un outil
électroportatif, le risque de choc électrique augmente.
Ne maltraitez pas le cordon. Ne vous en servez
jamais pour transporter l’outil électroportatif, pour le
tirer ou pour le débrancher. Éloignez le cordon de la
chaleur, des huiles, des arêtes coupantes ou des
pièces mobiles. Les cordons abîmés ou emmêlés
augmentent les risques de choc électrique.
Si vous utilisez un outil électroportatif à l’extérieur,
employez une rallonge coue pour l’extérieur. Ces
rallonges sont faites pour l’exrieur et réduisent le
risque de choc électrique.
S'il est absolument nécessaire d'utiliser l'outil
électroportatif dans un endroit humide, utilisez une
alimentation proe par un disjoncteur de fuite de
terre (GFCI). L'utilisation d'un disjoncteur GFCI réduit
les risques de choc électrique.
curité personnelle
Restez concentré, faites attention à ce que vous
faites, et servez-vous de votre bon sens lorsque vous
utilisez un outil électroportatif. N'employez pas
d’outils électroportatifs quand vous êtes fatigué ou
sous lemprise de drogues, dalcool ou de
médicaments. Quand on utilise des outils
Symboles relatifs à la sécurité
