9.1.1 LED work lamp (5) (Fig. 1)
This product is equipped with an LED work lamp to illumi-
nate the immediate work area and improve visibility in
poorly lit environments.
CAUTION
Do not look directly into the LED work lamp or the light
source.
1. The LED work lamp (5) lights up automatically as
soon as the product is switched on.
The LED work lamp remains lit up for approx. 10 seconds
after the product is switched off.
9.2 Adjusting the speed
1. Light pressure on the on/off switch (6) results in a low
speed. As the pressure increases, the speed increas-
es.
We recommend determining the speed using practical
tests.
Note:
The integrated motor brake ensures a quick standstill.
