Extension Cord
If an extension cord is required, it must have suffi-
cient cross-section to prevent overheating or an ex-
cessive drop in voltage. An excessive drop in voltage
reduces the output and can lead to failure of the
motor. The table below shows you the correct cord
Consider the pictures on the fold-out page.
The machine features full-wave phase control elec-
tronics with the following features:
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up en-
sures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Speed control
The available speed when the ON/OFF switch [1-4]
is pressed down fully can be set [1-3] between 600
and 1400 rpm (RAP 150-14) or 900 and 2100 rpm
(RAP 150-21) using the adjusting wheel. This en-
ables you to optimise the cutting speed to suit the
surface (see table).
 The power tool is fitted with a variable speed
trigger: Pressing the ON/OFF switch harder in-
creases the speed.

Cable size (AWG)
Use only U.L. and CSA listed extension cords.
Never use two extension cords together. Instead,
use one long one.
 The lower the AWG number, the stronger the
cord.
Constant speed
The preselected motor speed is maintained on a
constant level. Electronic controls ensure a steady
cutting speed even when operating under different
loads.
Temperature cut-out
The machine power supply is limited and the speed
reduced if the motor exceeds a certain tempera-
ture. The machine continues operating at reduced
power to allow the ventilator to cool the motor rap-
idly. The machine starts up again automatically
once the motor is cooled down sufficiently.
Electric current limit
AC limiting prevents excessive current consump-
tion under extreme overload, which can lead to a
decrease in the motor speed. The motor immedi-
ately restarts after the load is removed.
Attaching polishing pads
Only use polishing pads that are suitable for the
maximum speed specified.
