Speed adjusting dial
For 9911 only
The belt speed can be infinitely adjusted between 75 m (250
ft.) and 270 m (900 ft.) per minute 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 direction 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:
If the tool is operated continuously at low speeds for a
long time, the motor will get overloaded, resulting in tool
malfunction.
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.
