Maximum speed is reached in about threeseconds after the power switch is pressed in.SmartstartTMIf the SmartstartTM button is pressed in directly after thepower switch is pressed in, the speed is reduced by 50%. InSmartstartTM mode the machine has less power until thebutton is pressed in again. These functions are of great usefor creating a pilot hole for drilling.Elgard™ElgardTM is an electronic overload protection.If the motor is overloaded, the overload protection pulses themotor. Reduce the load and the motor returns to its normalspeed. The overload protection disconnects the power, if themachine is subjected to heavy loads or if the drill bit jams. Themachine is reset by first releasing the power switch and thenpressing it in again. If the drill bit jams, the mechanical slipclutch protects the gearbox before the overload protectiondisconnects the power.Speed controlSpeed control always gives maximum output power from themachine. The speed control function provides the machinewith a limited idling speed.ErgonomicsThe soft rear section on the DM 230 has a large contact areaso that the machine sits better against the body.
