Dust Ejection System (Fig. A)
The dust ejection system

prevents dust pile-up around
the guard and motor inlet, and minimises the amount of dust
entering the motor housing.
Soft Start Feature
The soft start feature allows a slow speed build-up to avoid an
initial jerk when starting. This feature is particularly useful when
working in confined spaces.
Clutch
The torque limiting clutch reduces the maximum torque
reaction transmitted to the operator in case of jamming of a
disc. This feature also prevents the gearing and electric motor
from stalling. The torque limiting clutch has been factory-set
and cannot be adjusted.
No-volt Release Switch
The on/off switch has a no-volt release function: should the
power be shut off for some reason, the switch has to be
deliberately reactivated.
Overload Protection
The power supply to the motor will be stopped in case of motor
overload. The power will return once the tool has cooled down
to suitable operating temperature.
