How do I prevent accidental depth changes?

Troubleshooting

Motor fails to start

Check the battery charge status and ensure it is firmly locked into the tool. Verify that the restart protection was not triggered.

Inconsistent chamfer depth

Verify that the one-touch controller is locked into the intended stop point and clear any metal debris from the guide stop area.
