Speed adjusting dial

013933
The tool speed can be infinitely adjusted by turning the
speed adjusting dial. You can get the highest speed at 6
and the lowest speed at 1.
Refer to the table to select the proper speed for the
workpiece to be cut. However, the appropriate speed
may differ with the type or thickness of the workpiece. In
general, higher speeds will allow you to cut workpieces
faster but the service life of the blade will be reduced.

CAUTION:
The speed adjusting dial can be turned only as far
•
as 6 and back to 1. Do not force it past 6 or 1, or
the speed adjusting function may no longer work.
NOTE:
When the speed adjusting dial is at 3 or higher, the
•
tool automatically reduces the no-load speed to
reduce the vibration under no-load. Once the tool
gets load, the tool speed reaches the preset speed.
