A trigger assembly can be used to activate a motor controller to cause a motorized device to respond in a certain manner. For example, when the motorized device is a power tool, based on a number of pulls of the trigger, the motor controller can run the power tool in a forward direction or a reverse direction. A power tool running in the forward direction can receive a tap of the trigger. A timer can be started upon detecting the pull of the trigger. Another tap of the trigger can be detected within a time period determined based on the timer. The power tool can be forced to perform a reverse operation when the other tap f the trigger is within the time period.

A piston assembly for use in a viscous material dispenser is disclosed. The assembly has a main body with an axial bore for receipt of a push rod. The body has a face including an annular recess and an endless lip surrounding the recess. A camming washer is disposed at least in part in the recess. The washer includes a perimeteral camming surface engageable with the lip. The body and washer are connected together for limited relative axial movement when the piston assembly is advanced against material in a cartridge to dispense such material. The relative movement is effective to cause the camming surface to force the lip outwardly into tight engagement with a wall of such a cartridge.
