Scott,

Depends. If you are using the handheld that has the wheel on it for pulse control, no. If it is any of the others (G56, G57, T20E), then yes. Those have a Feed 0% button to set it to zero, then a Feed %+ and Feed %- buttons to adjust the feed rate up and down. Pressing Shift the Feed %+ will change the feed increment, how much the feed rate changes with each button press. Options are 1%, 5%, 10%, and 20%.
