Features
E‑Clutch™
This unit is equipped with an E‑Clutch™ (Electronic Clutch),
which in the event of a high‑load the unit will be shut off to
reduce the reaction torque to the user. The switch needs to be
cycled (turned on and off ) to restart tool.
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 needs to be cycled (turned on and off ) to restart
the 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 needs to be cycled (turned on and off ) 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.
Electronic Soft Start
This feature limits the initial start up speed, allowing the tool to
build up to full speed gradually over a 1 second period.
