6.2 Electronics
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up
ensures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
At the same time, this also prevents the materi­
als to be stirred from spurting out of the mixing
container. Thanks to the low starting current of
the machine, a 16 A fuse is sufficient.
Idling speed reduction
The electronics reduce the speed of the ma­
chine when idling, thereby reducing noise and
wear on the motor and gearbox.
Speed control
You can use the speed control [1-4] to set the
speed.
