The method of controlling a motor which drives a tool of a power tool, includes initializing an electronic device and switching the motor on in a first step (31), continuously monitoring of the motor current (IM) and a battery voltage (UB) in a second step (32) which alternates with a third step (33) in which a continuous comparison of the battery voltage (UB) to a threshold value (GW) stored in a memory of the electronic device is carried out.
