is adjustable between 1000 SFM (surface feet per minute) and 1500 SFM.
Speed is adjusted by turning thumbwheel, (C) Fig. 2. Thumbwheel position

fastest (1500 SFM). Speed may be changed while the motor is running or
while it is stopped.

following manner:
1. CAUTION: Make sure trigger switch is OFF before connecting machine
to power circuit.
2. Turn machine over, grasping rear handle with left hand so last two fingers
