This is a genuine manufacturer sourced replacement part. It is specially designed for Milwaukee band saws. Switch handles on/off and variable speed functions of the tool. Because switches have mechanical internal components, over time they will wear out and begin breaking down requiring replacement. Please note this plastic switch is sold separately. Replacing a switch is a quick and easy repair. You should only need a screwdriver. • First make sure the tool is unplugged • Separate housing by removing screws • Disconnect wires from the switch • Remove old switch and secure new one • Reconnect wires to the switch • Reassemble and test the saw
1. removed left side of band saw handle.
2. remove wires from existing switch.
3. try to set new switch, did not fit too tall and too wide for existing handle opening.
4. use a Dremel to enlarge the switch opening in the handle both height and width.
5. wire new switch.
6. reassemble the handle.
Remove 4 small screws and 2 large screws on left side of handle.
Remove wires behind screws and pressure clips.
Place wires on new switch in the same locations.
Place new switch in right handle and put on left handle part.
Replace screws - tighten and test
Unscrewed the screws in the handle, disconnected the wires from the old switch, Then put the wires on the new switch where they were on the old one, put it back together. Works like new.
Remove the left half of the handle. Disconnect the four wires and connect to new switch. Made a wiring diagram of where the wires were hooked to the switch. Installed the new switch. Replace handle half, back to work.
