Return information for triggered SawStop
technology
The cartridges save electronic data measured
when the technology was triggered. If you re
turn the activated cartridge to Festool, we can
retrieve that data to analyze how the electron
ics and software performed.
If we confirm that your cartridge activated due
to skin contact, you get the chance to receive a
free replacement cartridge. Festool reserves
