Repairing another load of Makita, Bosch and Milwaukee power tools.

- Another lump of broken tools in for repair, the 2 routers and sander are from the same customer here is the rest are from different people.
Not ofter i get these Makita Routers in for repair, normaly they are a good reliable router. One I would recomend myself. But this customer must be working them hard, to have one burnt out already.
The BO4900 sander is only a small repair, and im not suprized, its a lovely machine to use and a powerful and reliable tool. I have 5 Makita sanders myself and the BO4900 is the one I prefer to use.
The makita DHS680 Cordless saw turned out be cutting cement boards, so no wonder the guard was in such a bad state.
The Bosch GSH11E hammer was from 2006 and had seen quite a lot of work. This was a risky repair to keep going with and could well have resulted in a compleat waste of time. Luckily this time it worked out in the end. But I tell anyone from experieance, if you want to get into tool repairs, you will encounter quite a few boarder line tools like this. You could play it safe a not repair them, but then you turing away work. Sadly you have to waste some time and money on tools like this to learn.
Finaly the Milwaukee grinder, iv sad it before, if milwaukee would only fit a quality bearing to these ginders, they would have the best cordless grinder on the market. But of course they dont, they cheap out on the no name china brands and save themselfs a few cents, while costing you extra money.
These tools are clearly capable of work, but it is this cheap bearing that lets them down every time. And its not just the size of the the bearing, as even the cheaper makita dga452 uses a 605 bearing. Only differnece is makita use a NSK bearing.

What a knowledgeable, skilled and straightforward teacher/fitter this man is. It's great to watch and listen to him. Amazing wealth of knowledge!
Pleasure to watch
That first repair was brilliant Dean. Such a great example of a difficult decision. When you take pride in your work you want confidence that the repair was worthwhile to the customer.
I made a mistake, start looking at one videos and now i can't stop. Greeting from Holland
I like how you take care of your customers. You’re a good person.
I try
I especially liked the ‘DISCO ROUTERS’ 😂
2 exactly the same Makita routers with both motor problems, I think this man needs to start taking shallower cuts and more passes when cutting worktop mitres 😂
Its a 2 inch long bit, that means f it and use it all right?
@@connahjones8178 just because it's 2" doesn't mean you have to use it all at the same time, I do fit worktops and your really meant to take a first cut then use a jigsaw to remove the bulk of the cut then go back in with the bit and then hog off the rest of the material in subsequent passes then do a finish pass with the full depth of the router bit, that's why it has a full length cutting edge otherwise you have that much deflection in the cutter the finish won't be a smooth one.
I never knew about the cordless saw blades like they say….. you learn something new everyday 😊
i did not know either my cordless makita saw dhs680 burnt up the whole saw i ripped 145mm x 45mm planks i had a blade named makita efficut 56tooths i think it was but saw smoked like a coaltrain
But you would also think that the logo on the blade went out to be visebel
it's always a better day when you upload! thanks bud!
I find it funny how of the Makita sander youre like "2019 machine, its not old" when other brands would be lucky to reach that and only have brushes needing replaced.
I always appreciate the depth you go into with a good quality tool.
You are a genius when it comes to repairing these tools. Nothing like experience when working on something. Keep up the great videos. I have learned a lot about the tools that I have.
Thanks, will do!
Dean when you get one of those broken impact bits to remove, all you have to do is remove the tool holder to expose the ball holes, block one of them up and using the airline blower inject air into the other hole. Pop.
Yea or if you don't have access to compressed air. You can fill up the hole with grease block one side, get a hole punch, and tap the other side. Pressurising the grease will also pop the bit out. Quick and dirty field fix! Assuming you have some grease handy?😅
Thanks for passing on so much information and making it easier for us DIY'ers to repair out tools on a budget.
Finally an explanation for what the big felt donut is doing in the Bosch hammers. Speculating over its true purpose was driving me crazy :)
I enjoyed watching you fix these machines. The sound was great.
Ever since I started watching your channel I have learned so so much I just wanted to say thanks and keep the information coming
Happy you fixed it even with the worn armature race, I'm sure it will last its owner a good while since it haden't seen that much use in 22 years
The drill bits in the busted brush caps is an amazing idea. Love the videos, thanks for helping me
Superb long video's dean !! love it. You're never far wrong mate, always a pleasure to watch you work, a true master. 5*
I always deconstruct those Makita bitholders from the start since that metal ball is holding the broken bit in place, then spray a bit of WD40 in the head an then hit it. Most of the times makes the bit come out just enough to not having to use a grinder. And thanks for the UK/Ireland socket explanation, makes sense now to always have an earth plug even on double isolated machines
After reading your video description Dean, I cant believe a big company like TTI®️ is willing to save $.05¢ on a bearing like that. They're buying 100 thousands+ of these little sealed bearings so it adds up, but come on, really! They're shooting themselves in the foot in the long run cause in the end they'll pay for it to be fixed(under warranty) or potentially lose a customer to a better grinder brand - Bosch, Metabo, etc. I knew there was a(nother) reason(among many) I dont like Milwaukee tools(&TTI in general)! I know Dewalt isn't the very best tool in everything, but overall i think they are the better choice for me & I've never had a problem in 25+ years. I got my first Dewalt 9.6v NiCd cordless drill when i was like 19. Other than a few tools (Bosch grinder, PorterCable TigerSaw & circular saw), I have all Dewalt brand tools, and Bostich nail guns. I think after the *real* SawZall, & HoleShooter w\ metal gear cases, the 'old' Mlwaukee brand has fallen down after moving ownership to China. Just my opinion & $.02¢ worth....👍🏻💪🏻👌🏻🛠️🔧🔩📏📐📐🦺🚜⚠️🚧😎🤷🏻♂️🤔🤦🏻♂️😆🍻
Clicked so fast that it doesn't have audio still lol
Going to watch it in the morning, it's exactly midnight down here!
Great video fantastic how you explain everything
On the milwaukee grinder at end of video could u use hot glue where the rubber grommets should be as a packer. Great video as always.
I'm just mesmerized by what you do and the knowledge you have!
man I was freaking out when I heard that crack while the track saw was on the press. 😬
Love your videos Dean really enjoy seeing your thought process on what’s the right thing to fix or not
TH-cam gold this. Class work 💪
Brilliant love the longer videos
For the 44:00 repair, i have a trick. Whenever we broke a bit inside that kind of holder i took a small drillbit and drilled a hole in it, couple of mm deep will be good enough, then I use a tapping bit to grab onto the metal, pull back the holder and simply pull it out, no need to dismantle
well done mate that sounds a lot better 👍
Great video thanks again for your help with this video 📹 👍 all the way from the Philippines 🇵🇭 still missing lreland 😢
I love yore videos😀
Mitre fast on the tip of a nail punch to get a broken bit out works great
These reapirs are so satisfying❤❤❤❤❤
What a great extended edition, love ever moment.
To replace rubber fittings for holding the stator in place, perhaps you can use a bit of hot glue instead. I found hot glue is a good approach in such applications, it is similar to a hard rubber and sticks really well when applied.
It may work yes. But it's also hard to get and even thickness. To much to one side would also cause the rotor to rub
I tought you were going to cut the milwacky bearing anyways just to keep the tradition going 🤣
Thank you Sir
Excellent friend.
another classic Saturday hoard making this compulsory viewing
To my knowledge, case hardening is done by heating a low carbon steel cherry red in a high carbon atmosphere for some time. The carbon permeates the steel so that it can be hardened.
It's hard to say without having the part in my hand, but it looks like this bearing surface was not hardened but chrome plated and ground. You _could_ lathe down the diameter and sleeve the armature.It's probably not worth all that work on an old machine like this, but it could be done.
If you really wanted to, you could probably get that first Bosch armature turned at a machine shop so that the new style sleeve could fit on it.
More expense though, price creeping up would make a repair less worthwhile
You should have painted or dipped all the ends that are butted together into some type of wood protection.several dips and dry outs.the tops and undersides you can do later.the cut ends of wood will wick up all the water and rot it away.lt happens .
Perhaps someone already asked this, but why don't you use automatic wire strippers and a dedicated ferrule crimping tool(like the one you have for spade connectors)?
Feel like it's up to personal preference, but when i switched to an automatic stripper from a manual like the one you use, it felt soooo much better
For working in tight spaces there are pistol-shaped ones with a long nose so you can work on short leads, or generic ones with long handles
Or perhaps it's just me, because i'm more of an electrician and an electronics DIYer type, and having to strip dozens upon dozens of cables with manual pliers feels like torture
Awesome video to watch during breakfast, as always
German Plumber here. Your videos are a blessing, keep up the good work 👍
Glad you like them!
@@deandohertygreaser Your work is important it keeps us going. No powertools, no progress.
Nice one on the impact bit removal Dean.
did you know, hammer drill jokes always have the most impact? 😂
Duaaaaaaaa😂😂😂
I didn’t know about the saw blade thicknesses needs to be 1mm for cordless saw another lesson Thanks
Wish your shop was near me....
almost two hours of repairs. what a great way to spend a part of my saturday! what kind/brand hammer are you using there? The green and orange one? thank you for the video! cheers!
BOSS!!!!
21 year old Bosch... honestly I wouldnt have even attempted to get this fixed. Rather go with new and better tool.
The "race" you referred to on the Milwaukee grinder is actually a bearing cage, not a race
Hello Dean, thanks for the informative posts, I thoroughly enjoy them. It's refreshing to hear another Donegal accent. (I was reared in Milford, not a million miles from you)
I have a Makita DHP481 drill whch the chuck locking mechanism is partially broken, it locks, but when I try to lock the chuck on to a drill, the chuck roatates when the force used is high. I've browsed your posts but not come across a fix for this, I guess the locking mechanism is in the gearbox, any advice you can give before I start stripping it down?
All the best
Hey, do you speed up your videos a bit before uploading or do you actually move this quickly? been loving your videos btw, i've learned a lot as a young guy. Wish there was a version of your channel that worked on petrol tools aswell
I need that test-hammering stump! Badly!
When a screw mount breaks I just drop a ball of epoxy and let it cure. I then use a small drill bit just smaller than the screw inner diameter then tap the new mount with the screw.
THERE SHOULD BE A DEAN REPAIR MAN IN EVERY TOWN WERE YOU CAN TAKE IT TO GET IT LOOKED AT AN HOPE IT CAN BE REUSED .PEOPLE JUST BIN THERE OLD TOOLS NOW SAD ONE MANS JUNK OTHER MANS JOY
Did you get a new hammer for christmas? Very nice 👌
Do you have like a list of the most reliable tools you’ve found for each category?
I've bought a Makita angle grinder after watching Dean's channel. He was impressed by the grinder that he fixed that had been buried at sea after a shipwreck.
what kind of material is that table top? it seems durable and easy to clean. I whould like to put the same on my work bench
I have a 2004 Makita 3621c router that I absolutely love! But whenever I start it, it gives me electric shock's through the handl grips. I live on a Scottish island, so I have no access to a repair shop such as yourself. without the additional costs of shipping a return journey on top of the cost of repair. Would you be able to tell me if this is a terminal problem with no fix? Or is there something I could try to fix it? I would dearly love to bring it back from the dead, as it has served me well. I did actually buy the exact same model second hand of eBay because I knew it was a sturdy work horse. But it would be good to have them both going! Loving you content, can't believe I've only came across your channel about a month ago. 👍
im not sure, havent come across that one before.
The handle only has a switch inside it. Unless a wire has been pinched or worn against the handle screw holding it on.
The machine is double insulated to dose not have an earth lead. only other thing i can think of is wire inside the the main body shorted out somewhere.
@deandohertygreaser OK, I'll have a look and see if there is anything obvious.
When I say electric shocks, I'm not talking about a full 240v dunt! I am meaning like more of a constant static buzz thru the handle. It actually took me a while to determine what was happening at first. But quite worrying. Thanks for your prompt reply! 👍if I can't see anything, I'd be happy to send it to you to have a look at if you're interested? And you sent me your address?
more tools!!!
That's what bothered me no one blows out their tools,then they are mad that they failed.
mate i got the Bosch WSL 115
Wow nise gobe
I have the same Makita impact. New fear unlocked... So far I got lucky with the 1/2" adapter always breaking outside of the chuck, but I think I'm not going to risk it anymore...
Another quick video :D
When did they start making brushes with protector pins? I don't recall them being a feature in the 1980's.
And on the first one you repaired you forgot to mention replacing the switch lever lol 😂
Do you have an isolated power supply for testing these or are you always plugging directly into the wall?
👍👍
G'day Dean, what grease did you use on the Bosch hammer?
Sorry... Orange and Green hammer... Bob.
Whenever I buy a mains power tool before I use it I remove the original power cord and fit around 6mtra of rubberised cord because let's face it who wants to have to work about 8ft from a socket or have to pull extensions leads out
sorry, I saw a video of yours where you had a program where there were cross-sections with spare parts, can you tell me where I can find them, thank you very much
Thank God for that....... hahaha so amusing
Hi Dean, you probably won't respond but here goes nothing. I have that exact Makita circular saw. The guy I bought it from had used it for one project, barely used. Tested that it spun when I bought it and took it home. Left it for a few months, first time I had a use for it the motor wouldn't turn. Almost like a stuck blade. Issue persisted even with the blade removed. I've opened it up and can't see anything particularly wrong.
It drains a battery with record speed when you try to engage it, the light works it just doesn't do anything. I don't know of anyone in Denmark who has a service like yours but maybe you have an off-the-cuff idea for what could be wrong? I hate throwing out stuff that could be of service.
I'm looking for a good combination drill an impact driver and a 4 1nch grinder . I want something thats reliable . and easy to fix.any recommendations
Dean, did you put the blade on backwards on the little Makita 7" saw ???.
Dean, is it possible to put the bearing on without a press?
You can tap them onto the shaft with a hammer and if needed i also use small tubes to get them further on
yes like stated, you can hammer them on if your carful to only hit the inner race, of race being fitted. its not recommended but it will do fine for home repairs
@deandohertygreaser Thanks Dean!
I always find your vids so absorbing... Who makes the sexy orange an yellow hammer? Bob (Weston super Mare, Somerset)
its made by a company called Sturnus, In Taiwan.

I just tried to find that hammer on Amazon lol but I can't find it
yeah how u can every machine inside out!
❤🎉😢
Dean,how many old kilts do you own ? Jim k.
Which type of lubrication do you use?
I've learned one thing and thats never buy Milwaukee tools.
Good Show . With regards to the Bosch Random orbit why do they call it a FRICTION ring ?
I know, found that an odd name for it myself.
@@deandohertygreaser . It is called a friction ring because with out it the sanding pad would spin at the RPM of the motor without randomness . it provides just enough Friction to stop it from spinning wildly . I know this because I picked one up second hand and could not figure out why it was spinning so fast someone had removed the Friction ring .Very much enjoying your videos nice to watch someone that knows what they are doing .
Not sure what it is but your audio is low and seems to fade in and out
Boggles my head how folk can't do basic servicing or cleaning of their tools.
There's no sound mate...now the sound is back good on ya...
You didn't seem happy about fixing those first ones. I hate those kinds of jobs.
I like the fact that every machine has the pronouns 'she/her'.
Why not? Great channel and that's me done.
Why would you use a trimsaw to cut drywall?🤪
turns out it was actually cement board
@@deandohertygreaser hard on the tool! Great watching you Dean , stripped tools and sometimes it’s very intimidating! I have gained a lot of confidence watching you but I’ve learned over the years to know my limitations! 👍🏴
@@deandohertygreaser There are actual 4 tooth blades for cement board now - That saw must take a beating with 24 teeth going through some of that - hope the fella has dust extraction that stuff is grim!
Schraubensicherung? Schrauben über Kreuz angezogen? Aiaiai
Did you get a job lot of tartan to use as workshop rags? 😂
They came from a local shirt manufacture called Moville clothing. These are all the off cuts from cutting out the shirts. nice soft brushed cotton. Sadly closed down last year, so these are the last of them.
@@deandohertygreaser they are practically your trademark now 😁 if you ever sell any "merch" in the future, make it red tartan 👍🏻
😢🎉🎉
👍🦘
Never found link for Sykes replacement bearing puller. Anyone help a illiterate you tube viewer?
Sykes-pickavant fast fit micro puller
the throwing gets tiresome
