-OSHA compliant
-Speed control allowing the operator to set repeatable speed settings and easily make small speed
adjustments when needed.
-Soft start/stop control ensuring smooth starting and stopping on large machines, preventing damage
to the drive and feed.
-Controlled deceleration preventing over-pressurization of the hydraulic system allowing the operator
to decelerate the machine tool in a safe and controlled manner, especially when the "Emergency Stop" is
used.
-Controlled motion of the machine tool minimizing sudden speed changes preventing rapid
acceleration when a cutting on uneven surfaces
-Replaceable cordset with quick connectors at both ends of the cable.
-Magnetic back allowing for convenient positioning of the pendant and preventing pendant from
falling.
