Circuit Breaker is ‘open’ when the button is out; if the tool doesn't run with the breaker in, a
continuity check across the terminals of the breaker would be appropriate (button in).

NO Continuity across the two circuit breaker terminals with the button in the breaker would be faulty, or damaged
internally and need to be replaced.

Continuity across the two circuit breaker terminals with the button out the breaker would be faulty, or damaged
internally and need to be replaced.

Is this an add-on to any saw coming in? Yes, if the motor is burnt up. Please note a burn-up of the armature and field are
most likely due to overload and it is critical that the customer is aware of the saws limitations - please send the saw back with
a copy of the OPTIMIZING CUTTING PERFORMANCE page.

Please be aware that if the user overrides the circuit breaker, either by holding-it-in, taped-it-on or not letting the motor rest
and cool, as the circuit breaker resets itself in about 2-3 minutes while the motor needs 60 minutes of not being run or
6 minutes of running at no-load to properly cool the motor and blade; they will still be able to burn-up a motor.
