Regular maintenance for the Sealey SA96 Engraver includes cleaning the exterior with a dry cloth, checking the engraving tip for wear, and ensuring that the collet nut is tight. Periodically check the power cord for any signs of damage.

The Sealey SA96 Engraver is versatile and can be used on a variety of materials, including metal, wood, plastic, and glass. Ensure you are using the appropriate tip for the material you are working with.

To reduce vibrations, make sure the engraver is properly maintained and the tip is securely fastened. Use both hands to stabilize the tool and work on a flat, stable surface. Adjust speed settings to minimize vibrations.
