Speed adjusting dial
The belt speed can be infinitely adjusted between 5 m and
28 m per second (980 - 5600 ft./min.) by turning the speed
adjusting dial to a given number setting from 1 to 6.
Higher speed is obtained when the dial is turned in the direc-
tion of number 6; lower speed is obtained when it is turned in
the direction of number 1. Select the proper speed for the
workpiece to be sanded.
CAUTION:
The speed adjusting dial can be turned only as far as 6
and back to 1. Do not force it past 6 or 1, or the speed
adjusting function may no longer work.

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
