Abstract
One example power tool includes an actuator configured to be actuated by a user to adjust a motor operating mode of a motor and a light operating mode of a work light. The power tool may also include an electronic processor configured to adjust the motor operating mode in response to determining that the actuator has been actuated in a first manner, and adjust the light operating mode in response to determining that the actuator has been actuated in a second manner that is different than the first manner. A different manner of actuation of the second actuator between the second manner and the first manner may include at least one of the group consisting of a different pressure applied to the second actuator, a different movement direction of the second actuator, a different amount of actuations of the second actuator within a predetermined time period, and combinations thereof.
