7.1 Electronics
The machine features electronics with the following
properties:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up
ensures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Speed control
You can continuously adjust the speed within the
speed range using the adjusting wheel [2-5]. As
a result, you can adapt the cutting speed in a way
that best suits the relevant material (see table).
Recommended position of the adjusting wheel
Wood
Plastic
Fibrous material
Aluminium and
non-ferrous profiles
Current limiting
Current limiting prevents excessive current con-
sumption under extreme overload, which can
lead to a decrease in the motor speed. The motor
immediately restarts after the load is removed.
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.
