3. Low /high-speed travel switch

Depress the “Turtle” symbol on this
switch to change the travel gear from

It is possible to switch from the low-speed
travel “Turtle” to the high-speed travel “Hare”

high-speed travel to low-speed travel must
be done after stopping the machine,
because it could cause an abrupt stopping
or overspeeding, resulting in damage to the
devices.
