WARNING
Risk of injury

Always disconnect the battery pack before per-
forming any type of work on the machine!
7.1 Electronics
Smooth start-up
The electronically controlled smooth start-up en-
sures that the machine starts up jolt-free.
Constant speed
The motor speed remains constant through elec-
tronic control to ensure a uniform cutting speed
even when under load.
Current limiting
Current limiting prevents excessive current con-
sumption under extreme overload, which can lead
to a decrease in the motor speed. The motor imme-
diately restarts after the load is removed.
Brake
The HKC 55 EB is fitted with an electronic brake.
When the saw is switched off, the saw blade slows
to a stop electronically within approx. 2 seconds.
