Electronic Function - Makita GTR01 Instruction Manual

NOTICE:
If the tool is operated continuously at
low speed for a long time, the motor will get over-
loaded, resulting in tool malfunction.
NOTICE:
The speed adjusting dial can be turned
only as far as 5 and back to 1. Do not force it past
5 or 1, or the speed adjusting function may no
longer work.

Electronic function

The tool is equipped with the electronic functions for
easy operation.
• Constant speed control
The speed control function provides the constant
rotation speed regardless of load conditions.
• Soft start
The soft-start function minimizes start-up shock,
and makes the tool start smoothly.
• Soft brake
The tool stops gently with the soft brake. The soft
brake prevents damage to the workpiece due
to recoil and allows you to start next operation
earlier.
If the tool consistently fails to stop the trimmer bit
after the switch is turned off, have the tool ser-
viced at a Makita service center.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
