7.1 Electronics
The machine has full-wave electronics with the
following properties:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up
function ensures that the machine starts up
smoothly.
Speed control
The speed can be set anywhere between 2000
and 4200 rpm using the adjusting wheel
[2-1]
.
This enables you to optimise the cutting speed to
suit the respective material.
# n
0
[rpm] # n
0
[rpm]
1 ~ 2000 4 ~ 3300
2 ~ 2400 5 ~ 3800
3 ~ 2800 6 ~ 4200
The preselected motor speed is kept constant
through electronic control. This ensures a uni-
form cutting speed even when under load.
Overload safety device
The power supply is restricted if the machine
is overloaded to extremes. The power supply is
disconnected completely if the motor jams for
some time. You will need to remove the load and/
or switch off the machine before you can use it
again.
Temperature cut-out
The power supply is restricted and the speed
reduced if the motor exceeds a certain temper-
ature. The machine continues operating at re-
duced power to allow the ventilator to cool the
motor quickly. The machine starts up again au-
tomatically once the motor has cooled sufficiently.
Brake
The saw blade is stopped electronically with-
in 3 seconds of switching off the machine.
