CAUTION:
• If the tool is operated continuously at low
speeds, the motor will get overloaded and
heated up.
• 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.
The tool speed can be infinitely adjusted between 4,000
and 11,000 orbits per minute by turning the speed
adjusting dial, which is marked 1 to 5. Higher speed is
obtained when the dial is turned in the direction of num-
ber 5, lower speed is obtained when it is turned in the
direction of number 1. Adjust the desired tool speed for
the kind of work.
