The Electric Brake Does Not Stop The Blade Promptly

After trigger release, the blade coasts too long or stopping is inconsistent.

• Battery is nearly depleted or protection is unstable
• Trigger does not return fully to the off position
• Blade or spindle has excessive drag, looseness, or damage
• Electronic brake or controller has failed
• Motor or internal wiring fault

1. The blade stops consistently after the trigger is released.

1. Keep the shoe supported and wait for the blade to stop completely.
2. Remove the battery and confirm the trigger returns fully without sticking.
3. Confirm the blade is secure and turns freely without guard contact.
4. - Test once at no load with a known-good pack - if braking stays slow, stop and seek service.
