Constant speed control
Possible to get fine finish, because the rotating speed is
kept constant even under the loaded condition.
Additionally, when the load on the tool exceeds admis-
sible levels, power to the motor is reduced to protect
the motor from overheating. When the load returns to
admissible levels, the tool will operate as normal.
Soft start feature
Soft start because of suppressed starting shock.
