Electronic function

The tools equipped with electronic function are easy to
operate because of the following features.
Constant speed control
Possible to get fine finish, because the rotating speed is
kept constantly 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.

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the

Installing or removing wheel guard
(For depressed center wheel, multi
disc, wire wheel brush / abrasive
cut-off wheel, diamond wheel)
WARNING:
• When using a depressed center grinding wheel /
Multi-disc, flex wheel or wire wheel brush, the wheel
guard must be fitted on the tool so that the closed
side of the guard always points toward the operator.
• When using an abrasive cut-off / diamond
wheel, be sure to use only the special wheel
guard designed for use with cut-off wheels. (In
some European countries, when using a dia-
mond wheel, the ordinary guard can be used.
Follow the regulations in your country.)
