If the tool is operated with excessive load, the tool stops
automatically and the indicator lamp blinks in red. In this
case, reduce the load on the tool.
If the tool is overheated, the tool stops automatically
and the indicator lamp lights up in red. In this case, let
the tool cool down before turning the tool on again.
Electronic function
The tools equipped with electronic function are easy to
operate because of the following features.
Constant speed control
Possible to get fine finish, because the rotating speed is
kept constant even under the loaded condition.
Soft start feature
Soft start because of suppressed starting shock.
