Precision Collet Note:
All Badeco collets are engineered for highly precise 3/32" (2.35mm) shanks. For best results, use precision burs from makers such as Busch, Brasseler/Germany (Fox, Panther, Komet), and Otto Frei Swiss (Niqua). Variations in shank diameter, common to American made HSS burs, may cause poor performance.

Badeco MX-4 Evolution micromotors carry a 2-year factory warranty. Service is performed by the manufacturer at 8 rue de la Coulouvrenière, CH-1204 Genève, Switzerland. Refer to your warranty card or contact the factory for repair instructions.
