English
Current limiting
Current limiting prevents excessive current
consumption under extreme overload, which
can lead to a decrease in the motor speed. The
motor immediately restarts after the load is re­
moved.
Brake
The HKC 55 EB is fitted with an electronic
brake. When the saw is switched off, the saw
blade slows to a stop electronically within ap­
prox. 2 seconds.
Restart protection
The integral restart protection prevents the
electric power tool from automatically starting
up again after an interruption in power when
the ON/OFF switch is pressed. In this case the
electric power tool must be switched off and
then switched back on again.
Temperature cut-out
When exceeding a certain engine temperature
level, the machine power supply and speed are
capped. The power tool continues operating at
reduced power to allow the ventilator to cool
the motor rapidly. The power tool resumes to
full performance automatically once the motor
has cooled sufficiently.
