Hey guys,
I have heard an awful lot about the problems that the Bosch 1617 has with its switch konking out due to dust between the contacts. As an avid user of this router I am concious of this and always blow out the router after each use hoping to blow any dust out of the switch. Given the fact that alot of folks seem to have this router and disturbingly alot have this problem it would be great to see someone write a tutorial of how to take apart and clean out the switch or replace it. I for one would bookmark this and keep it readily handy in case I ever had to do this.
So come on Ladies and gents, if any of you have this knowledge know how, Would you be so kind as to help us other folks out with a liitle written direction for performing this task.
Maybe there is already something out there that covers this task, I don't know. But if there is and someone pointed it out, I would be truly greatful.
Thanks a bunch,
Kevin
