dust extractor's automatic electronic switch-
on/shut-off function.
For older mobile dust extractors, the
automatic electronic switch-on/shut-
off may only be activated under load
and not yet under no-load speed due
to low power consumption.

8.1 Electronics
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up
ensures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Temperature cut-out
To avoid the motor overheating, the power con
sumption is limited at an excessive motor tem
perature. If the temperature continues to rise,
the power tool switches off and can only be
switched on again once the motor has cooled
sufficiently.
Constant speed
The preselected motor speed is kept constant
through electronic control. This means that, if
the machine is used as intended (reasonable
contact pressure), a constant sanding speed is
achieved.
Setting and adjusting the speed
The speed can be set [1-5] between 6000 and
10000 min
