Ran out to HF (not close) to get an electric multi tool. They had
three models and I got the "top" model as I think this may get a lot
of use.

It does nothing. I'm not thinking well of Chicago Tools at the moment.

Recommendations, exchange or buy another brand?

I got the same model with a coupon that made it real cheap, and it
worked fine out of the box. So take it back and get a replacement, plug
it in before you leave to make sure it works. It's probably something
like an electrical connection that came apart, not a fault common to
every one made.


No, it's not. It looks like it is in the speed control which is
poured epoxy.

I used to fix electronic devices.
