Abstract
A pneumatic hand tool comprises a housing having a compressed-gas inlet and provided with a pneumatically powered motor which carries on one side a tool holder such as a chuck and on the other side a governor. A speed-control valve is operated by the governor and can close a first air passage between the inlet and the motor to maintain the motor speed below a predetermined limit. Another passage is provided which bypasses the governor-controlled speed-control valve and a valve is provided in this bypass conduit which is openable in order to allow the hand tool to operate at a speed substantially above the governor-established speed.
