Hi – newbie here on this forum. I have a problem with my 2730 saw… love it, but ever since I bought it used, it’s had this weird problem:
1. put in battery, works great, I make several cuts
2. then i would put it down for a minute or so to mark my next cut
3. then the saw would stop working – pull trigger, nothing happens
4. take battery out, re-insert battery, it immediately works again
this happens everytime, no matter which battery I use. I have the 5Ah, 3Ah, 6Ah, batteries.
Anyone knows what is going on here?
Did you find a fix for your milwaukee 2730-20?. Mine is doing the same
Milwaukee’s driving tools (drills, impacts, etc.) seem to have an issue with faulty triggers. I wonder if the 2730 might have a similar issue. My 2763 impact wrench’s trigger would make a fizzling sound and not work unless I pulled it all the way (less than ideal for a lot of work, where the variable speed comes in handy). It almost sounds as though the trigger in your saw is timing itself out, reading low or no voltage after the initial use, until the battery is reinstalled.
