• If an ANGLE has been specified, continue holding the trigger, the tool will pause and restart after the angle delay.
• If a RELEASE has been specified, continue holding the trigger, the tool will pause and restart after the angle delay.
• Release the trigger after the tool has completed all specified operations.
