Claim Text:
1. A driving tool comprising: a housing defining a handle; a backbone structure received in the housing; a rotary motor mounted to the backbone structure; a flywheel mounted to the backbone structure and driven by the motor; a driver; an actuator coupled to the backbone structure, the actuator being selectively operable to drive the driver into engagement with a circumferential surface of the flywheel to transmit power from the flywheel to the driver to cause the driver to translate along a translation axis; a control unit coupled to the backbone structure, the control unit being configured to control operation of the motor and the actuator, the control unit having: a trigger including a trigger member coupled to the handle and movable between a first trigger position and a second trigger position, and a switch arm that is fixedly coupled to the trigger member and contacts the actuator arm when the trigger member is in the second trigger position; wherein movement of the trigger member from the first trigger position to the second trigger position moves the actuator arm to the second arm position so that the trigger switch operates in the second switch state.
