Three-year limited warranty on tool, battery and charger
Automatic Speed Change™ technology adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimum performance
delivers 8,500 rpm
Efficient BL™ brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge
Electronic RPM controller turns the motor off if rotation speed suddenly slows or wheel is forced to stop
The BL™ brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the BL™ motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life
The electronically-controlled BL™ brushless motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and RPM to the changing demands of the application
Spiral bevel gears for smoother rotations and a more efficient transfer of energy
Compact and ergonomic design at only 14 1/4" long
Weighs only 5.6 lb with battery for reduced operator fatigue
Rubberized soft grip provides increased comfort on the job
Three-stage LED gauge indicates battery charge level
Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life
