Re - replacing the broken mechanism -- they come in various offset sizes eg 20mm, 22m and its often a bit tricky to work out exactly which size you need

Also as a first step, check if the handle is actually connected properly ie if the handle lever is really floppy and easy to move, it could be the square shaft connecting it to the mechanism has slipped out. (found that out the hard way after 30 minutes of stripping down the system to find everyting else was ok).

Thats a good technique. I was going to post a video of another way where you have to remove the triangular beading and then drill a 6mm hold at the right place (close to where your method finds the stuck catch), and then use a screwdriver through the hole to get to behind the latch and can usually lever it up (theres usually a stub or rivit head you can lever up) (look at a working window to see approx where that rivit etc is)

Thanks

1. Setting Up the Loop: - Connect the cable to the R connector of the station. - Lay the cable from the back garden to the front garden. - Ensure the cable returns to the L connector of the station, forming a complete loop. - Connect the guide wire from the middle connector of the station to any point on the loop. 2. Mowing the Secondary Area: - Use the app to select the option to mow the secondary area until further notice. - Once the mower starts moving away from the station, press the stop button on the machine. - Carry the mower to the front garden. - Place the mower down and press both the play and middle buttons. - The mower will start mowing the front garden until the battery is dead, then take it back to the station to charge. Note: My front and back garden is separated by a slab path, I buried the cables next to the slab edge), so I have to carry the machine to the front garden and do the job, If your front and back gardens were connected by a small lawn, the mower would be able to mow the entire area on its own without needing to be carried. I hope this long instruction can help you.

Hello Darren I followed your video on TH-cam and it was great. We have the same model as yours. We have wired the from garden up but are having trouble getting it to work. Would you mind letting me know how you cut the front lawn and what instructions you have to have, to get it to work. Many thanks in advance. Best regards Rosalind Wodhams

I set my 1200R up 3 years ago and it's well worth the initial effort, now I just watch it do the work !! I did it pretty much the same as you, carrying the loop down the gravelled side of the house to the front and then separating again. My chap is still going strong at 1200hrs, would recommend these to everybody. I will say that where the lawn meets a flush flag, put the boundary wire much closer to the lawn edge, the mower will cut right over the edge in these places, less to tidy with a strimmer. But yes, great video.

Where do you get those joiners!?!

This is not as straightforward as it looks. Turning the Alan key in some windows pretty challenging tbf

Omg

Hi how do you adjust the cut height ?

How do you install the new part? Is it an easy job, is there a video for it? Thanks.

Great video, thank you. Managed to open my window now and will order the replacement part 👍

Excellent content. Thanks. Can you do a video on the 2 stage 'Tilt' and/or 'Swivel' window. Hav emoved into an old flat and the handle is jammed and nowt happens.

I am facing the exact same issue however it's only when the heating is turned on. F2 fault appears and disappears causing the burner to turn on and off. But my hot water is working perfectly fine from the taps and the burner runs fine when taps are opened. I have checked and cleaned the flue, the injector, then condensation container. Really banging my head around to what this could be.

Hi Darren, I really liked your nice, quiet, unhurried approach. Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to post this DC05 motor repair. Also, I especially liked hearing your child calling for their mum, and her saying "sorry" at 1:56m. V polite 🙂

You started with one type of fitting (and assembled it incorrectly) then changed to a different type when it came to attaching it to the radiator? Just take this video off, it's not helping anybody.

Are you gas safe registered? Looks like your sump is cracked as well

You have 2 doors on different zones, can you enter /exit through either door and have the alarm active or delay entry alarm? Is this done in the programming? My rear door was never wired up as the garden was closed off,, but now i can access my garden via the path so i wish to add the rear door to the panel. Was thinking of running it to zone 1 where the front door is and wiring it in series. as the cable is already now in the box. Wondered what you thoughts are? Kind regards.

This was very helpful to see, thanks 🤝

Think you need to put some grease on the new mechanism to stop it rusting up,otherwise great job

2024. Mine finally died. Thank YOU Sir!

gas leak on the heat exchanger

Great video and it helped us with our DC58. It now works

Couldnt get seal to come away, couldnt get alan key to turn the full way. Much harder than it looks. Best call in the professionals.

Will attempt this tomorrow, thanks!

Poor install sorry

Have similar problem but my window mechanism is internal inly have pin coming out up and down any ideas?

Any moisture that manages to get between the felt and the tiles, should drain down the felt into the guttering. The felt is overlapped horizontally to stop water coming back into the roof space. Simply covering the hole with new felt will not work.

😢 Promo'SM

this is great, unfortunately im assuming to access the strip/locking mechanism you have to go at it from the outside ? Not possible for me.

We're can I get bottom part

My Sears Kenmore 38 bought in 1999 stopped working in the summer of 2023.😂 They do not build quality like that anymore.

how did you get the black seal off to start the process?

How long do you reckon it takes it to cut the lawn out the front of your house too?

Have the same problem but dont have the tools shows in the video, i live in a council house though however due to me vaping alot and not being able to open the window the waiting time might be a pain so do you have any requests on what other tools i could use ?

:-)

😆😆seriously??? Totally doing wrong mate What about that piece? Is it spare?😄

My flymo robot mower stopped working straight after the end of the guarantee. Did the straightforward things, battery change and voltage check with multimeter. Website and helpline give a long list of agents but none that I have called (I have called lots) do repairs. So bear in mind you might be replacing it after 3 years. Guess it depends if you think that is good value or not....

Hi Darren Chan, can you make a video on how to wire up Texicom Veritas Alarm Panels? I'll pay you privately for your knowledge. ❤

The old Vuvuzela - new gas valve needed..... Mines heading for it's second I suspect!!!

Hello, for the front garden did you just install the wire and use a connector ? Any other set up/zone creation required?

Hi can you tell me how to get it onto bluetooth pairing mode Please. Its driving me crazy. Please

How long is the mains cable? Socket to docking station?

Great vid. But what is that pipe you went round

Hi Dan, I just bought it, would you mind let me know how to pair the flymo and mobile ? Many thanks

Superb thanks 😊 👍

What tool are you sliding in the frame, where did you get it? Great info thanks

Good and informative video, thank you. Can I please check what washer you used for between the shower unit itself and the top of the pillars? Thanks again 😊

Hi, great video! Just wanted to know are you still happy with the mower??? How long have you had it and any regrets?
