  If your CHICAGO Power Tool won't start, it might be due to a few reasons. First, ensure the Battery Pack is properly connected by removing it, checking for obstructions, and reinserting it correctly until it locks. If that's not the issue, the Battery Pack might not be charged; make sure the Charger is connected and working, and allow sufficient time for recharging. In some cases, the Battery Pack may be burnt out and need replacement after proper disposal or recycling. Finally, internal damage or wear could be the cause, requiring a technician to service the tool.

  If your CHICAGO Power Tool is overheating, you might be forcing it to work too fast; allow the tool to work at its own pace. Also, check for blocked motor housing vents. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles and a NIOSH-approved dust mask/respirator while blowing dust out of the motor using compressed air to clear any blockages.
