I have two Craftsman and a Porter Cable. I use the PC most because it is on my router table but I have had trouble with the switch ever since it was new( about 4-5 years). I took it back for repairs several time but as soon as I turned it up side on the table the switch would not make good contact using the switch lock. I finally gave up and wrapped a strap around the trigger to keep it "on" permanently and use the table switch.
The service people in Charlotte weren't any help either and rude also. The guy, Craige ( I remember well) would only say "we recommend that you read the owner's manual"
I probably wil not buy another Porter Cable anything. |
