*1 Use of the nose unit may not be suitable when performing raised engraving of text or flat-drag cutting over a large surface area.
In such cases, use without the nose unit.
*2 This is suited to relatively small text and can produce finished results that are more attractive and have less burring than
engraving with a character cutter. An optionally available solid collet for diamond scrapers is required to install a diamond
scraper.
*3 An optionally available collet set for end mills is required to install an end mill.
