Foot Control (C.TXR-2)
This foot control looks the same as the standard Foredom foot control but it is a little different. It has electronics that convert AC current from an electrical outlet to DC current, which is the type required by Series LX motors. This control also has a different style plug that is made to fit the motor’s shielded-type plug.
It is made of heavy-duty plastic with durable electronics. The ergonomics allow precise and reliable speed control with your foot.
IMPORTANT: The 230V version of the Foredom LX motor can only be used with three speed controls; this one, C.SXR-2, or C.EMX-2 controls. Ay other speed control will damage the motor.
Two year limited warranty.
Why is the label red rather than blue - is this a fake?
No, the label is red to show it is a UK 230 voltage motor, rather than a US voltage. Any Foredom motor you buy in Europe SHOULD have a red label. If it is blue it is designed for 110V!
PLEASE NOTE - this motor does not come with a handpiece. Designed for keytip handpieces released by Foredom.
