► 1. Speed adjusting dial
The strokes per minute can be adjusted just by turning
the speed adjusting dial. This can be done even while
the tool is running. The dial is marked 1 (lowest speed)
to 5 (full speed). Turn the speed adjusting dial between
1 and 5 according to your work.
Refer to the table to select the proper speed for the
workpiece to be cut. However, the appropriate appli-
cation may differ with the shape and hardness of the
workpiece. In general, orbital cutting action is suitable
for soft materials.
NOTE: Orbital cutting action is suitable for most soft
materials such as wood, however, sometimes not,
according to the shape or the hardness of the work-
piece, etc.
