  If your Skilsaw Saw tool won't start, first ensure it is properly plugged into a functioning power outlet. If it is plugged in, check the power source's fuse or circuit breaker and replace the fuse or reset the breaker if necessary. Also, check if the GFCI has tripped and reset it. Inspect the power cord for any damage; if damaged, have it replaced by an Authorized Bosch Service Center or Service Station. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the switch might be burned out or the trigger might not be turning the tool on, in which case you should have the switch replaced by an Authorized Bosch Service Center or Service Station.

  If the Skilsaw Saw's cut binds and stalls the motor during cutting, the cut-off wheel is likely dull or has worn diamond grit. You should discard the old cut-off wheel and replace it with a new one to resolve this issue.

  If the Skilsaw Saw's cut-off wheel does not come up to speed, the extension cord you're using might be too light or too long. Replace it with an adequate cord. Alternatively, there may be low house voltage; in this case, contact your electric company.

  If water is not flowing to the cut-off wheel of your Skilsaw Saw, first ensure that the water supply is turned on by checking the supply valve and the water feed assembly valve. If the water is on, the water filter may be blocked or clogged. Try cleaning or replacing the water filter to restore water flow.
