Repairing and restorating a whole bunch of Bosch, Makita, Dewalt, Metabo and Hiretech powertools

- Let me know what you think of these longer format videos with multiple repairs. Wanted to try something different.
This is just about all the repairs from just one day in the workshop fixing power tools.
No big job lots of boxes of tools, these are all individual machines dropped in by customers.
Most repairs are done on a first come, first served basis. But I do jump some repairs ahead for an instafix, if the customer is badly stuck and I have some time.
The hiretech sands repair was carried out using parts from a donner machine the customer also supplied, so no parts were needed. Only time (3 hours) and labour. May post a longer dedicated video on this later as there are not many videos online showing how to dismantle and rebuild these machines.
The rest of the repairs were all standard repairs, ones you would be getting in every week.
Costs of these repair jobs if anyone is interested are as follows.
Hiretech 90 euro
Metabo 10 euro
Dewalt 25 euro
Bosch 18 euro
Makita Grinder 35 euro
Makita sds 50 euro
4 makitas 10 euro

I leant my buddy my Dremel tool and he used for a few days. He then returned my Dremel and bought me a new one saying he broke mine. I replaced the brushes and told him he could keep the new Dremel. Then shared your channel to show him how to change the brushes on brushed motors. 👍🤪👍
The amount of knowledge here is incredible.
That is a good buddy. Atleast he tried to replace it.
Big fan of the longer videos, awesome stuff, keep up the good work!
Sir, you are a genius! I could watch you repair these power tools all day. Well done.
Wow, thanks!
Love the long contents episodes
The longer form videos are great. Thanks for sharing the knowledge as well.
Glad you like them!
👍👍👍
These long format videos are a joy to watch. However, I understand the CZcams algorithm tends to favor videos with around 10 minute runtimes. Do whatever format is most enjoyable for you to make or to help your channel grow, I will still watch.
That's funny you say that, all the mechanic videos I watch, anything under 10 to 15 minutes I just won't watch
I prefer watching the longer videos, i do try to remember the fixes he does but i have the memory of a goldfish
Loving the longer content.
I just found your channel. I love that you repair simple things I've always thought that saving the world with paper straws doesn't make sense when we toss out electrical and replace
Good point. I buying anything new as we still use cradle to grave manufacturing, when we should be doing cradle to cradle by now. Until we do, nothing else we do will matter.
@@deandohertygreaser Sadly, I'll have to disagree with you there. Cradle -> cradle (ie 1 human adult generation of ~10-15yrs) /power tool/ manufacturing makes little sense long-term, as the experience gained by their users will have to be constantly adjusted ('relearned') as new tool forms appear (cf mobile phones & their constantly-changing UI/OS with new generations). Experience with a tool => experience with the job, so changing even minor things just so the marketers/manufacturers gain more sales results in a net loss of work hours (& hence experience gain) as the workers get used to the new quirks & features.. even if those features are useful (once again, cf IT companies eg Microsoft or Apple changing their UI with every other upgrade; likewise with mobile phone companies eg Nokia or Samsung)
Cradle -> grave (ie ~50 - 70+yrs) OTOH means good tools (& therefore their manufacturers & tool quality) will continue despite occasional blips in manufacturing/supply etc due to eg world economics. This also benefits the individual, who can know that their maybe initially expensive purchase will last & be relatively easy to repair if it fails, as opposed to simply binning & buying a replacement (cf eg more 'modern' Bosch green & blue variants from the ~90s to this day: greens are marketed as 'professional' while blue are the true pro (longer-lasting) tool IME)
Dean your an Ace!!!
Fast, efficient, and your a walking talking power tool encyclopedia... These videos are addicting. I'm learning so much. Thanks for all the awesome content
Amazing job!!
Very informative!!
I'll be back to watch more.
Thanks
Like the longer videos
Appreciate your work. I learnt a lot today which keeps tools from becoming scrap.
i prefer the full days worth of work as you get to see what tools break more often than others and its very helpful when looking out to buy which tools
I liked it today. It's a good thing to have a mix of short and long as sometimes I don't have time to take in a full boat video. Thanks again!
Very true!
New here, you helped me remove a broken bit in my impact drill! Thanks!
But I must confess.. your accent/voice made me keep watching more😍😍😍☺️😋
Glad I could help!
Yes to the longer video 👍🏴
These long videos are great - a good range of tools being worked on.
Im amazed by your stockpile of spare parts.
you are real good. will see you again.
Grand job as always Dean and thanks for giving us the opportunity of watching a master at work.
Yeah, I'm liking the longer vids too. Just amazed with you knowledge & watching all your many various repairs. If thats just one days work, it looks like you have your hands full over there at that place. Tools just scattered everywhere in the backroom! I've always been fascinated at taking things apart...started that as a young lad. But i never always got everything back together perfectly back then!😅🤔 I'm quite a bit older now with all my own tools(DeWalt 20v mostly) so thanks to you, if & when one of them breaks, I'll be able to disassemble it, fix problem, & put back together for another day of work!! I've tackled a pneumatic nail gun or two, just plunger o-rings &\or a trigger 'switch'. Thanks for your time & all you do Dean, from 🇺🇸. 👍👌🔌🔋⚡⚠️🛠️🔩🔧👨🔧🍻
The long form videos are good! Learning a lot! Thank you!
Fantastic! Being a mender myself, I love seeing work like this, and so quick too. Takes me hours to do a tool usually.
Great video Dean
hi Dean your channel and videos are simply fantastic to watch and how easy you make it all look and i understand this took many years to perfect! there is a peaceful aspect to your videos for tool guys and gals to chill and watch just wanted to say thanks for the content and please keep it up bud! on a side note see the amount of knackered tools i threw away before finding your channel is infuriating lol
Awesome, thank you!, and sorry
Never a sorry from you bud iv saved a small fortune watching your vids😊
Thanks for the video. Love to see the repairs. 😊
Love your videos! I really enjoy the longer day of repairs kind of stuff like this one. Thanks again!
Like others have said, the longer format 'Job lot' videos are great to watch.
Awesome these longer repair videos are great
Love your videos. Short or long. Cool how fast you go thru these. Really know what your doing. Great Job.
New Sub and keep it coming I'm a Makita man and you have opened my eyes Cheers from AUS.
Thanks for the sub!
They are overpriced and noticed a couple of my mates with the newer tools having problems sooner than expected with the Makita stuff so I stick to black and decker cheep enough to buy and replace and ide say better for the DIY user becouse the outlay for Makita or similar just isn't worth it
Excellent vid.
I just recently came across your channel and I have to say I have been watching your repair videos for about 2 days non stop now. I find them really educational. As a person that takes apart a lot of stuff (ever since I was a little boy) I learn a lot about how these tools are put together. I have fixed a few myself and your videos give me huge amount of confidence in tackling future repairs!
Thanks a lot and keep it up!
P.S It is a real shame that greedy manufacturers just don't give you a chance to repair and just scrap perfectly good tools.
I enjoy seeing the full randomness of tools that come in, really like the longer video
You are so smooth and knowledgeable, it is fun and learning at the same time.
I appreciate that!
Put some silicon on the cables, and general rubber items. I use Valsir o-ring silicone. I know it's supposed to be used for water applications but I've used it on anything with proper results.
Hi Dean, really enjoying your channel….. you have managed to get me inside a lot of power tools without me picking up a screw driver…..🔨⚒️💥🎉🍺👍😎
Great stuff.
I like the longer format.
Great job, rather than just into landfill, good for a few more years👍👍
Love the longer videos 😊
Thanks Dean, I'm a first time viewer and really enjoy your video - great content!
I do like the longer video
That's amazing bro. The fact that people would throw these machines in the trash at the slightest chance of them breaking is mind boggling. I hate the trash-em-dont-repair-em mentality society
The old Makita and Milwaukee, we used to use those, in an industrial setting and a Grinders corded 7 in and worked for years !
i believe this could be classed as therapy. nice voice, informative, to the point, very knowledgeable. great work. new sub for this
Great stuff to see. Keep it 👌
Love the long ones or the short ones keep them coming Dean
GREAT. I love how you throw the screws everywhere.
Loving the diversity of the longer vids.
Dean nice Video again.
I enjoy your long videos.
Thanks for the new videos every day.
close-up scene at the bearing press was great.
Keep doing it.
👍🏻
Amazing as always
Really really great ‘can do’that you share to keep this great kit sample running andnot binned . You are an absolute rarity . Thank you for the insights !
You are a master repairman! Never used a multi tester ever! All just by instinct!
Love the longer vids 😊
Hello, thanks for sharing your content. Love the videos!
Love your vids brother, thanks for sharing your knowledge....
Excellent content 👍 thank for sharing your knowledge!
Really like your videos great content and very informative.
Keep up the longer videos please
Absolutely fantastic cant wait to watch the next instalment for sure :)
Loving the longer ones mate
Holy shite that hiretech is the exact same model we hire out in Oz! Never have seen one fail in multiple shops
Love the video, god knows why I watched it but it’s addictive, it might come in handy if I ever need to repair a belt sander, love the way you know exactly what needs sorting
Well, there's no doubt you know your job... and if not, you sure fooled me. Very impressive.
Like the way you teach. I am a lassie not a lad.
Got loads of Metabo cordless tools,sure did have not looked into repair shops around the country,and just happens theres only one registered metabo service and its miles away from me.Lately one of the drills started cutting out when drilling or screwing something in,just stops and beeps the sound wont turn on and now i can just throw it away since the 3 guys i took it to for repair could not fix it.Great content tho on these repairs,wish there were more people round the world like you
Killeen Hardware in Armagh do a big amount of Metabo, unsure if they'd take your machine if not purchased from them though
Your telling me 3 different places couldn't fix a drill ? By far the easiest thing to repair in those kinda shops is a drill.
@@verifiedduncepackcrew5586 Not if u are living in Bosnia.Took it to the first place,waited a week guy called and said it was fixed.Took it to work the next day did like 50 screws and it had same issues.Took it to 2nd place they said it's probably housing but couldn't get the parts.3rd guy took it for repair diagnosed it as housing had damaged some wires should need new housing and wiring work but he couldn't get parts in a month.So now just have it as spare parts tool for the other drill
@@bratgrbic847 oh damn that sounds frustrating.
😅8th😮😅9th
Nice work 💪 a true master of your craft 👍
I love how you fix all these tools one handed 😂. Your camera work is seriously steady with the other hand considering what you are doing.
Do invest in a head or chest rig for your camera though to give yourself an easier quicker life brother.
I respect your work sir. Thank you for taking the time to share it with us. Have a good day
Very impressed on the rotary hammer
After close to 10 years of repairs don't get my hands on a floor sander nice one
LOVE TO BE WITH YOU DEAN FIXING THAT LOT
Why don't you drill a small hole in the Makita's switches and hit them with contact cleaner. That should work and get those switches working again. Love the channel.
I have tried that several. Times. Iv smashed the last few open to see why the cleaner didn't work.
Turned out the linear pot wiper is a lot smaller inside the makitas. And the simply wear out. One or 2 of the 4 wiper legs snap of and that's why they don't run correctly.
I could watch this all week long.
thanks,
I love it, when I see a professionell working. Watched the whole Video in joy
*chuckles* " day wouldn't be complete without a Makita brushed grinder repair"
Lol
Thanks!
Love how you get them done. Love the longer videos.
Just found you're channel,Been Nerding out on it all weekend!!🤣
A great show
I see your store is like a game store for grown men...from 🇲🇾
Almost to 100k i started watching at 40k its a joy to see my friend! I would love to see you sit down with some Milwaukee executives lmao!
they would love me
Really enjoyed your video thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
I just found this channel. Love watching him repair this stuff so easily but i can't understand 90 percent of what he's saying
Ran into this.. first time seeing one of your vids. This multi repair video is great.. better than most TV shows I'm watching lately and I'm learning :).
Thanks! Very entertaining/interesting
You sure know alot of tool fixing tricks! 😁🙌
I do like these longer videos
First time.wtching very good very easy to follow you every thing well explained I enjoyed it
The motor cemetery at 31:25 was unexpected but really cool
longer please videos, awesome.
Brilliant so glad i got this recomended in my feed ,massive car boot near me (smithfield market msnchester) always has loads of these type of tools that mostly sre untested and often wondered whethe i should plunge and buy some just to test the water on whether to try repsiring as an hobby
Appreciate that HT8, I have to tear into one I bought but kept putting it off because it is rusted up
Love longer multi tool videos like this one, awesome stuff, Liked and subbed.
Awesome video. Subscribed.
Thanks for the sub!
I sold that Dewalt and
With the money I got I bought the ryobi! And an adapter for
Dewalt batteries as it’s the only ryobi I own.
Haven’t looked back!
Very educational, Thanks.
Brilliant video I really enjoyed the longer videos … 😊👍🏻
In Poland i get those switches for DTD152 and DDF482 for about 30 euro... Might be worth considering.
43:30 If it were me, I'd combine a blue half with the white one to make a statement.
Thanks, that was nice
