Electronic function
Constant speed control (For models
GA5020C/GA5021C/GA6020C/
GA6021C)
• Possible to get fine finish, because the rotating
speed is kept constantly even under the loaded
condition.
• Additionally, when the load on the tool exceeds
admissible levels, power to the motor is reduced
to protect the motor from overheating. When the
load returns to admissible levels, the tool will
operate as normal.
Soft start feature
• Soft start because of suppressed starting shock.
Indication lamp
► 1. Indication lamp
The indication lamp lights up green when the tool is
plugged. If the indication lamp does not light up, the
mains cord or the controller may be defective. The indi-
cation lamp is lit but the tool does not start even if the
tool is switched on, the carbon brushes may be worn
out, or the controller, the motor or the ON/OFF switch
may be defective.
Unintentional restart proof
Even locking lever keeping the switch trigger depressed
(Lock-on position) does not allow the tool to restart even
when the tool is plugged.
At this time, the indication lamp flickers red and shows
the unintentional restart proof device is on function.
To cancel the unintentional restart proof, pull the switch
trigger fully, then release it.
