Hi there im having a small prob with my saw it will go if I hold the green button down but as soon as I let go it slows down and stops, I think it must be the switch ? anyone else had the same prob? just happened out the blue

Jim,

I don't have one myself, but I believe they have a NVR (no volt release) switch. If the switch isn't 'latching', then I would guess that the relay inside it has failed.

yes I think you are correct any good helpful dealer I can order parts from?

sounds like the coil in the switch usually the conections rather than the coil that fails it would be worth having a look as a new switch is likely to be around a £100
