I guess that depends on how fast it rotates and how the tool is gripped. It also depends on whether the rotation is a DC motor with end stop switches or a servo with position reporting. No point in moving and decelerating to a stop, telling the unit to extend and then accelerating back up to the

If you rotate it with it extended it will have a lot more inertia, tend to throw the tool, and be harder on the rotator. If it was rotated with the tool retracted originally, there is likely a good reason why they did that. Dave On 11/10/2015 4:36 PM, r...@superiorroll.com wrote: > When I was
