24,000 min using the electronic speed control dial
(12).
• Turn the electronic speed control dial to the
required level.
• Generally, use the low setting for large diameter
cutters and the high setting for small diameter
cutters. The correct setting, however, is a matter
of experience.
1 = 8,000 min -1
