Did someone tell him that he was suppose to drain the oil after break in????

How loud is the motor when running? The condenser microphone on your recording device doesn't give a true representation of the dB level.

Thank you so much I followed you step by step once I heard your vacuum I knew that was the problem so I followed you step by step and thank you you're awesome

I have one of these, must be at-least 25 years old. It’s not HF but looks identical. I have made smaller repairs with parts from mostly the internet. After years of it not starting in cold weather I decided to put in 10w30 synthetic motor oil. It starts every time now without fail. I felt I did not have much to lose at that point. No sign of anything wrong and that was about 10 years ago. Now I noticed they sell all weather compressor oil online. That’s an option if you don’t want to use motor oil. I’m a medium duty diy compressor user. If I ever replace this one I will get one like yours again. Yes low power delivery and other problems cause hard start problems but everything else being good it is the oil.

I sure could use your expertise on a 1914 southbend lathe. Nice work!

Why wouldn’t you just mount it vertical?

I have a 2350 with the pump pulley wobbling and making noise. Appreciate your time making this video 👍

Well done!

OORAH!

it was so GREAT that you supported the Tank with Boards underneath!!! SMART!!! so many people DON'T support the tank..but YOU DID !! thank you for the video1!

This is my first compressor an I really like it going to use it for automotive air tools so i just went with the 20 gallon

If no one figured it out, the issue is there's no head pressure relief when it shuts down or it's not working correctly. You should hear a pressure release when the unit shuts off and there should be an automatic valve to isolate tank pressure.

Thank You very much, you are a lifesaver. Got home after work and I heard that sound of water spraying against the wall. You literally saved me from calling the plumber. Hard when money is tight. Our first house, a lot of things to upgrade and repair. I don’t know much about these things but I’m leaning…❤️🙏🏼🤙🏼

Harbor Freight has it now for 199.99 b*#$k Friday special

Thanks for taking time to make this video. Very informative. You don't waste any time, just get to the useful info. And your comment was great: "Everyone has their opinion, just keep it clean." Thanks, again -- gonna go get me one of these sets today!

I NEED a replacement on off button(knob)!😂

Mouse like eat mine bulbs....strange mises...here in Finland 🇫🇮

Thank you 👍🤠

These machines indeed are loud. I have one of them, however, with two stroke engines they’re not all like this, but some are, they need a couple of minutes. I’ve just idling to warm up. It’s actually better for them not to run full blast when they are first started. Once it’s seated up, though it will whale away.

Does the intermediate shaft cause a rattle in the steering wheel in my 2009 venza, or could it be the metric power steering damper i seen on earlier video, any way keep up the good work. Scott.

Your video helped me disassemble the lower section around the motor and gears. Some twine had gotten wrapped so tightly around the shaft that the motor could not spin the head. Was able with your help to get it back in working order. Your tip about the T-15 bit is gold.

Thanks for this. I had to replace the switch and didn't take pictures of the spring and level positions. This helped me put Humpty back together again.

The way I would fix those wandering bars is I would tap some threads on each end then spin a nut on those threads with a drop or two of thread locking compound.

The fan should fill the majority of the frame

I knew about the overheating thing. But, it quit on me and I had no clue why. You pointed out the clog in the hose, specifically at that angle, and that was my problem! Cleaned it out. Put the hose back on, and she fired right up. I can't thank you enough for your video here!!!

Your awesome bro.. loved it helped me get right the first time..

Thanks. Didn’t have to test the connections. I just unplugged everything, plugged it back in and I’m good to go. 💯👍🏾

I’m here in 2024. Thank you. Only difference I hung my expansion tank from the rafters. Again thank you for the video.

I don't think this machine is 700 lbs. More like 450.

Good review. Waiting for this to go on sale to get an even better price on it!

would it be possible for you to provide a view from the bottom of the spindle? (underside of machine). Thanks!

How do I fill up my thermal expansion tank with air pressure?

Not a sling blade and not a Kaiser blade.

Wht site did u order tht piece from

We might as well practice with the hand file since the sling blade and the hand file use are going to be future proof.

Great help thank you!

👏👏

What is the bolt that holds that bottom cover on the spindle. Mine came loose in the brush and can’t find it yet. Guess I need to replace. Thanks man!👊

Thank you for this! I realize how simple the mechanism is after your explanations, but sure helped to see. Your demonstration of the gear mechanism got me to look at mine, and there was my problem: one side was mucked up so that the pawl wouldn't slide, and the other side was missing the pawl. Easy fixes. Thanks!

Did the top of the leaf blower get really hot when you were using it like where the caution stickers are

I see Amazon has the complete recoil kit for $10. Spring, string, handle and plastics.

Thanks brother, I was having the same problem. 🙏🫡

For the compound to be on the DRO you would need another function and scale on the readout. Without a scale it has no way of measuring the travel and the readout has no place to display if it did. You can put a cheap Igaging unit on just the compound if you wish. The chinese DRO's are pretty cheap and touch screens are becoming popular. For three or four hundred dollars you could change it out and get a three function unit.

thanks ! helped alot

Hello and thank you. a heads up here. You can do this without removing the 2 screws on the lower assy . just carefully lift off top white assy. there re 2 pieces with a spring in between. Slide your cord thru the cover and into the pully. u might need something small to push cord thru to center. tie a knot and put it back together. there is a approx.1 inch diameter wrap spring that goes in between. the tang that is offset and closer to center goes down into the hole. place the upper piece on and reinstall bolt. wrap the cord back on like in this fine explanation. I was back running in 20 minutes. i have a 445 Xcut. Mechanism is the same as in this demo

Appreciate the review. Really liked the fact that you were diligent enough to solve the problem, rather than spreading bad info. 100 tp 150 feet is a LONG scoot. Just like coax cable every linear foot reduces power. Has you used a die grinder or something similar to see how the recovery is ??

Kill switch wire on FJ180v is cRaZy. Easy like yours at the coil end - slip off, slip on -- but it's bolted to a plate near the engine: the bolt passes through an insulation block up top, and underneath it goes through a short thin copper strip bent at one end and cut into a V at the other. I shouldn't have removed that end just left it on and now I have no idea which way round the bend on the strip goes. The PDF is no help. Anyone any ideas?

I dont know what you mean. Im not worried about your video. I was paying you a compliment, but as quick as you earned that "attaboy", this "aweshit", renders it useless. sorry

After doing this it worked great! But the pull rope feeds back out while it's running. (Original problem with mine). Any ideas?
