Introduction

This guide will show you how to properly install a new trigger to your Ryobi CSB125 circular saw. If the trigger is no longer working or frequently becomes jammed, then you should highly consider replacing it. This troubleshooting page will help diagnose any potential problems occurring due to a faulty trigger switch. In the event that a new trigger is needed, this guide will show the steps to properly install a new one. The only tools you will need are a #2 Phillips screwdriver and a pair of wire strippers. This guide will cover how to access the internal wires that connect to the trigger switch.

Tools

Step 1

Place the saw down on a flat surface with the motor facing up.
Make sure that the saw is unplugged from any power source.

Step 2

Use the Phillips #2 screwdriver to remove the five M4x16mm screws.

Step 3

Use the Phillips #2 screwdriver to remove the two M45x35mm screws.

Step 4

Disconnect the two black wires by unscrewing them from the trigger switch using the Phillips #2 screwdriver.

Step 5

Remove the trigger from the saw.
You may have to use the wire strippers to the copper on the new plug.
It is important that the wires are properly run in their tracks. Failure to do so could result in pinching a wire, which could damage the plug.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
