    The product, in the report: Firestorm Table Saw

    I was using this saw to cut down some parts for a project that I was building. The saw had been turned on and off several times over the course of the time that I was working on the project. After finishing another cut I reached down and flipped the switch to the off position. But, the saw did not actually turn off. I repeated reaching down and turning the switch off a couple of more times with the thought in the moment that I had missed pressing the switch. When the saw still did not turn off I physically looked down at the switch, which is below normal eye line when operating the saw, and found that it was physically in the off position even though the saw was continuing to run. This fact necessitated actually pulling the plug from the socket to get the saw to turn off. Fortunately due to the layout of my workshop; reaching and pulling the plug was reasonably easy and the incident did not cause any injury or damage. However, if someone else were to encounter this issue and they were in a position where the saw had to be physically moved in order to reach the power cord; this would pose a significant danger to that person.
