    With this broken washer, when the timer got to the drain cycle, was there just silence and the timer wouldn’t move? Or did you hear any noise as the drain pump tried to do its job? I have silence and I am about to do this procedure, but I wonder if it is the switch instead.

Scary project

    what a weak design - same thing on Ridgid and Ryobi, that brake fails after a short time and needs to be replaced🤦🏻‍♂️ nowhere to buy that in the Home Depot, and now Milwaukee😱 Dewalt simply better constructed and will last much longer, belts available

    • @FixerMerlin
      @FixerMerlin Před 5 měsíci

      I got a replacement at Milwaukee service store but including my time it was cheaper to buy a new sander. I’ve had a corded dewalt that’s been taking heavy abuse for 10+ years but the cordless one is so convenient it’s too bad they aren’t built better

    • @ssergei
      @ssergei Před 5 měsíci

      @@FixerMerlin i agree, having the same brake problem now but with Ridgid. Found the part in the internet, it's cheap, but delivery is 7x price of the part itself. Thinking would it be good to pay 1/4 price of a new Dewalt sander for this part for Rigid or just it's better to buy a new Dewalt. I sanded my deck with Ridgid and that's seems maximum it can do with 1 brake...too fragile imo, thanks for your video though!

    Thank you! You saved me a bill! Just an FYI to everyone else, the amount of water that WILL drain is the amount of water that is in the washer. I recommend removing as much water as you can before doing this. For what ever reason I figured there was some sort of stopper and the only water that would come out was the water in the hose. I was wrong. Luckily I had a bucket nearby and caught most of the water! Thanks again!

    Yeah, I bought a cheaper pair that really just heats the back of your hand, not the palm side at all, and not the fingers. One day they might make something a carpenter can use that you can gingerly stick into a pouch and pick out freezing duplex nails, but this is obviously a piss poor design and a waste of 300 bucks. Better to buy a good battery powered nailer for that price lol
