Product Description

?

This is a soft rubber protective cover for the on/off switch on your tool. This authentic Makita replacement part is sold individually. Switches are commonly replaced parts in power tools, handling all on/off and variable speed operations. They also have a role in electric breaking; they can momentarily reverse electrical polarity. Because switches use mechanical internals, they will degrade and wear out over time, eventually needing replacement. Some common signs of a broken or failing switch are: • The tool has stopped functioning - it refuses to start. • The tool operates intermittently, requiring multiple tries to turn on, until eventually it won't start at all. • The variable speed function and electric braking aren't working properly.

Repair went simply with no problems. Removed a few screws installed parts screwed back together and it works as it should.
I got this tool at a pawn shop used a few years ago for 30 dollars it was a Makita scraper new about 400.00. Best 30 bucks ever spent once construction friends found out I had this everyone wanted to use it so w hen it stopped working no one offered to help replace it. Long story short I got my tool back fixed it and they all think its history.
