I have a Remington 8" pole saw. The trigger on the little saw broke off. That is not an available part for replacement. The trigger is a hard black material. Thought it might be ABS, so i tried ABS cement on it. Didn't work. Maybe y'all have some suggestions. I don't want to scrap the saw. It is a handy little bugger.

JB Weld has a "Plastic Bonder". You could try that or go my way and make your own out of what's on hand.

Can you get to it with a piece of metal / plastic and drill / rivet an extension?

Look for some stuff called Q-bond.

 

I get it from my Matco dealer, but Amazon and a lot of hobby shops carry it.

Another option would be to look on :techie-ebay: for a "PARTS" saw of the same model. Quite often people put broken stuff up for sale for psrts.

It's really amazing what you can do with a file if you put your mind to it.

I've done many "repairs" that way. Brass, aluminum, steel, what ever works. Gotta' say, I'm good with files. If I can't buy it, I can most likely make it.

Guy I used to work with said files were ‘German milling machines’.
