Troubleshooting

Tool will not power on

Ensure the battery is fully charged and properly seated in the tool. Check if the battery contacts are clean.

Cutting is slow or inefficient

Verify that the correct type of bit is installed for the material being cut. Check if the bit is dull or damaged and needs replacement. Ensure the battery is sufficiently charged.
