This trigger type switch has 4 terminals and a locking mechanism. This genuine Makita replacement part is sold individually.
Switches are commonly replaced parts in power tools. A switch handles on/off and variable speed functions. 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 requiring replacement. Some common signs of a broken or failing switch are:
• The tool has completely stopped functioning – it will not turn on.
• The tool operates intermittently, requiring multiple tries to turn on, until eventually it won’t turn on at all.
• The variable speed function and electric braking aren’t working properly.
