hi Geoff i emailed the seller and he says it is not sealed , so i orderd one for £6 you can't go wrong.

If your saw has a NVR switch then the saw will want rewiring to bypass it.

hi lofty no it does not have nvr switch just an on, off and a knob for speed control.

Hi Leptus, if you haven't got a footswitch yet have a look at this....EBAY NO. 120784044794.
I use one of these and it controls my saw, dust extraction, and three spotlights.
Hope this helps.
