Features
Kickback Brake™
When a pinch, stall, or bind-up event is sensed, the electronic
brake engages with maximum force to quickly stop the wheel,
reduce the movement of the grinder, and shut the grinder
off. The switch will need to be released then depressed to
restart tool.
Power-OFF™ Overload Protection
The power supply to the motor will be reduced in case of
motor overload. With continued motor overload, the tool will
shut off. The switch will need to be released then depressed
to restart tool. The tool will power off each time the current
load reaches the overload current value (motor burn-up point).
If continued overload shutdowns occur, apply less force/
weight on the tool until the tool will function without the
overload engaging.
Anti-vibration Side Handle
The anti-vibration side handle offers added comfort by
absorbing the vibrations caused by the tool.
Soft Start Feature
The soft start feature allows a slow speed build-up to avoid an
initial jerk when starting. This feature is particularly useful when
working in confined spaces.
No-Volt
The No-volt function stops the grinder restarting without the
switch being cycled if there is a break in the power supply.
Electronic Clutch
The electronic torque limiting clutch reduces the maximum
torque reaction transmitted to the operator in case of jamming
of a disc. This feature also prevents the gearing and electric
motor from stalling. The torque limiting clutch has been factory-
set and cannot be adjusted.
Brake (A9 only)
Once the power is shut off, the brake stops the wheel spinning
more quickly than a unit without this feature. This improves
efficiency and increases user protection. Stopping time will vary
depending upon the type of wheel used.
