Not necessarily. It depends on the type of motor.

Some motors (e.g.- DC motors) have a speed dependent primarily on the voltage. Regulators make great speed controls for motors of that type.

Other motors (e.g.- AC synchronous or induction motors) have a speed tied primarily to the frequency of the AC source. Regulators do little or nothing for the speed of such motors.

I don't know what type of motor is in the tool in question.
