# Soft start

## (GWS 24-180 JZ / GWS 24-230 JZ / GWS 24-230 PZ)

The electronic soft start limits the torque when the power tool is switched on and enables a smooth start-up.

Note: If the power tool runs at full speed immediately after being switched on, this means that the soft start and restart protection mechanisms have failed. The power tool must be sent to the after-sales service immediately (see the "After-Sales Service and Application Service" section for addresses).
