Kobalt KRS 1824B Reciprocating Saw Teardown

The channel's subscriber count just turned 420 - so it's time to smoke something in the shrine. Join me to see what went wrong with this reciprocating saw, why did it let the smoke out.

To get a broken blade out all you need to do is hole the button that releases at and use the saw.

This saw is a piece of crap. Mine started making ominous noises on the first big job. Thanks to your vid, I see that it's basically disposable.

@renohuskerdu4592 like everything else these days. those powder-metal gears can fail 1000 ways. also there is no fail safe mechanism in the linkage. the motor spins at 10-20 kRPM and if there is a sudden impact that rotating mass will represent a ton of inertia.
