Speed change
NOTICE:
Use the speed change knob only after
the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the
tool speed before the tool stops may damage the tool.
NOTICE:
Always set the speed change knob
carefully into the correct position. If you operate
the tool with the speed change knob positioned half-
way between the position 1 and the position 2, the
tool may be damaged.
NOTICE:
If the rotation speed significantly
decreases during operation in the high speed
mode, stop the tool and change the mode to the
low speed mode. Otherwise, the motor may get
overloaded and cause a malfunction or fire.
Two speed ranges can be preselected with the speed
change knob.
To change the speed, turn the speed change knob so
that the pointer points to the position 1 for low speed
mode or the position 2 for high speed mode.
