ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL
The polisher electronic speed control supply the following fea-
tures.
Speed setting
The speed of the polisher can be set by rotating the speed dial
(3) to the desired setting for any speed between 2000 and 4200
r.p.m. (LHR21ES), between 2000 and 4800 r.p.m. (LHR15ES).
Speed compensation
In case of overloading the polisher, the electronic speed control
will compensate and maintain the selected speed till a safe level.
Exceeding this overload level may result in strong vibrations and
tool overtemperature.
Starting acceleration ramp
To avoid kickback effect and compound splattering, the
electronic speed control always supply a smooth starting
acceleration ramp when the tool is turned on.
Accidental re-start protection
In case of a sudden lack of main power supply, the electronic
speed control prevents the re-start after the power supply
restoring if the main switch is turned on. The polisher must be
turned off and on again pushing the lever of the switch (2)
toward the body of the tool.
