Description

220V / 240V supply only. This unit requires higher-voltage supply (220V / 240V). Plugging it into a standard North American 110V / 120V outlet will prevent it from running properly. Confirm your outlet voltage before powering on. Learn more

This flex shaft kit combines a Foredom M.LX-230V low-speed, high-torque motor with a C.TXR-2 electronic foot control and your choice of duplex spring handpiece, configured for controlled stone setting and precision bench work on 230V supplies. As you ease into the pedal, the handpiece comes up to speed smoothly, letting you feel each cut rather than fight it. The separate motor-and-handpiece layout keeps the working end light and maneuverable, while the foot-operated variable speed control keeps both hands free to manage tools and workpieces.

When using a duplex spring equipment handpiece you should always keep the RPM's low.  High revs are the most common reason for duplex spring failure, right behind operating the duplex spring bent at more than 45 degrees.  Since duplex springs have no warranty, even when brand new, we strongly recommend using the 5000 RPM maximum speed Foredom LX with your duplex spring equipped handpiece.  That's why this selection of handpieces are all duplex springs. Feel free to use any key tip type handpiece with your Foredom LX.

Power and Plug: Adapter Required

230V only. NEMA 5-15 style plug plus a country-appropriate 230V plug adapter equals your 230V outlet. Do not connect to 110/120V outlets.This kit runs on 230V only. Its power cord ends in a NEMA 5-15 style plug, the familiar North American shape, so connecting it takes a plug adapter matched to your outlet: a NEMA 230V outlet adapter on North American 230V circuits, or the adapter specific to your country's outlets elsewhere. Never plug this kit into a standard 110/120V outlet. The plug will fit, but the voltage is wrong for the motor and control.
