AFT: MAKITA's Kickback Prevention System

Customers Also Purchased

Tool kickback detection technology is an intelligent function designed to minimize the impact of kickback by shutting down the tool if the rotation speed suddenly slows down. Active Feedback sensing Technology uses an onboard accelerometer to measure rotation and electronically shuts off the motor if rotation is suddenly forced to stop. In addition, the torque-limiting clutch is engineered to prevent gear damage by automatically disengaging the gears.


Specifications

If the speed suddenly drops due to accidental or intentional blade binding, the function MAKITA's AFT will shut down the tool to protect the user. This function does not prevent jamming, but it helps prevent accidents.
