Unintentional restart proof
The tool does not start with the switch being lock-on
even when the tool is plugged.
At this time, the indication lamp flickers red and shows
the unintentional restart proof device is on function.
To cancel the unintentional restart proof, return the
power switch to OFF position.
NOTE: Wait more than one second before restarting
the tool when unintentional restart proof functions.

Electronic function

The tools equipped with electronic function are easy to
operate because of the following features.
Overload protector
When the tool is overloaded and current flows above
a certain level, the tool automatically stops to protect
motor.
Constant speed control
Electronic speed control for obtaining constant speed.
Possible to get fine finish, because the rotating speed is
kept constant even under load condition.
Soft start feature
Soft start because of suppressed starting shock.
