- Milwaukee is getting fixed, and Makita tools are not worth fixing. That makes a change.
The Mulwaukee M12 GG grease gun was already and not repaired. But the customer has since bought a new one but also wanted this one fixed.
It needed a new service kit with included the controler, switch, wiring, and battery contacts. which can make it an expensive repair at 80 euro but still half the price of a new one.
The Makita DHP486 drills, on the other hand, have also been in before but also repaired before. And now, once again, both have failed. Not what you would expect for a tip of the range makita drill. 2 years is not want you would expect from a Makita tool. Luckily for the customer, they developed 2 different faults, so I could at least make one out of 2.
The evolution R185 CCS saw is the normal quality I have come to expect from Evolution tools. sounds rought, but can be fixed easily with a set of brushes. They are not the highest quality brand, but you can not fault their price. But more importantly, they are built for work, and they can do the work.
The Refina MM30/3 Mixing drill is a common repair for mixing drills. Bearings always eventually give troubles after dealing with dust and moisture.
This one already had the bearings replaced 2 years ago, but this time only needed the exposed bearing replaced.
It's good to know it can be replaced without dismantling the whole gearbox.

As a mechanic, I absolutely love the unbiased and quality opinions you give Dean. Great content.
I love the way you stick up for the workers, and your right plasterers cannot spend hours after work cleaning their tools. Me I have a hard enough time keeping my DIY tools clean that I use every now and again, if I was a full time user of any tool, I would not want to waste valuable sleeping and resting time cleaning a cement mixing drill. I understand the workers ethics in using tools this way, thank goodness you do too, or you would never fix a single tool that comes to your shop. A very interesting fix it video my friend, very well done thank you for sharing your work day with us. Also maybe start a business sideline TOOL CLEANING 25 pounds an hour
its a lot easier to clean the tool when the plaster is wet, I would give the labourer a kick up the arse lol
Brother when it's that cold, leave the heat on!! Just remind us about the fan when it kicks on 😀 We don't want you freezing while you're giving us all this great content!
It's only Ireland, I'll be cold but I'll not freeze 😆
Having to send in a tool just to reset a built-in timer is ridiculous and a very bad move from Hilti, hopefully right to repair takes care of them.
Makin money!😉😉😉😉
No kidding - they must know the people at John Deere
car manufacturers do that all the time and nobody moves an eye.
When the service light comes on it’s usually after 120 hours or 200 hours depending on the model. When a tool works for this number of hours it doesn’t simply need a reset. When technicians reset the lights they have to do a full service on the tool. That means new o-rings and gaskets, and every component of the tool is inspected. The reason Hilti does this is because they have done a lot of research on their own tools, and have determined that after 120 or 200 hours the grease or oil in the tool has coagulated due to heat and use. The rubber components also begin to degrade as the grease and oil stop lubricating the internals as well as new grease and oil does. The reason for the light is because up until 120 or 200 hours the tool will still work and perform well. But after 120 or 200 hours the tool will not perform as well as it should. Hilti doesn’t want their customers to be struggling with broken or worn tools at the job site. So this system insures the customer always has a properly functioning tool. Also continuing to use the tool for more than 120 or 200 hours without doing a service wears out more components in the tool for no reason making a more costly repair
@@ryansteve8739 I get it's a necessary service, but why not allow other non-authorized technicians or even the customer itself to do it? Why does the hammer you paid a decent amount of money for require you to pay even more money whenever the brand wants? Does the hammer actually belong to you or are you just renting it out?
I know exactly how this ends; every couple of years or so they lower that hour limit more and more so that you have to service it more often. Today might be 120hrs, next year's model will be 100hrs, and so on. It's completely anti consumer, let the people do whatever they want with the tools they bought.
Great videos Dean. Well done. Just a suggestion if you haven't done it. You could make a "Short" for the Makita design fault with only 2 pins in the gearbox and not 4 pins. Hopefully the Makita design team will watch the video and make some changes. I will also send a link to your short to the Makita Team as well.
Today I wanted to buy a DHP486! I'm glad I didnt have time to buy it!
I was so glad when you replaced the end cap on the saw with 'Evolution' the right way up! I must be on some sort of spectrum...
Great stuff as always Dean, thanks.
Super good videos you make, love watching them👍👍. Just got my 1½ year old Makita DHP486, returned after a warranty repair at Makita Denmark, they have replaced the gear unit with a new one, it runs tighter and with a clear click, between hammer mode and drill mode, so it works until they have solved the problem with that. The gear shift also works better now, it goes into gear as it should when shifting.
You need a couple oil filled radiator heaters. They don't make any noise and they are safe
also theyre pretty affordable!
I love my DHP481 the 484 I have is on its second gear box because the auto hold breaks then the Chuck stops holding. It’s wanting doing again. Shame bloody good tool.
I enjoy your videos. In the US it seems like every guy is into Milwaukee and calls it the best. It’s interesting to see you dissect the issues with them. Thanks
You will have to do a mixer special top 10 - each one is like a modern art masterpiece 😂
My dad had same problem with m12 grease gun as he uses it on his boat . When the last one broke he resin coated the board and 2 years later not a problem
I used to have a real fondness for Bosch tools and still have a few older, corded ones but has soon as production went to the far East, the quality dropped through the floor. On the heating side - I've a Diesel Heater in my workshop - it's noisy (thus it lives outside in a box I built for it) but is an excellent and inexpensive heat source.
That's why I've switched to Einhell cordless tools, they're about the same quality (if not even a bit better) than modern Bosh tools but roughly half the price (even less for spare batteries). Though I'm sill using mostly Bosch bits, drill heads, blades and the like, as these are still in the sweet spot for cost to quality ratio.
@@Dr_VSure Einhell is same quality as Bosch.😂
Einhell tools are made in Germany (never heard of it, looked it up online).
Erbauer are better than Einhell & they're trade standard
That is why I buy old Makita and Bosch tools.They are better than those now built in China.Have some as old as 24 years and the Bisch drill I bought about 6 years ago is struggling to stay alive.
when you took the hammer to the paddle mixer Dean, thought it might end up like the car in Father Ted 😅😅😅😅
20:00 Gracias por desarmar la caja de cambio y explicar los detalles del diseño y funcionamiento.
Siempre tuve curiosidad por saber esta importante información.
Saludos desde Argentina👍
yo soy de Argentina tambien y estoy aprendiendo mucho de este chabón
i reckon a air needle scaler would be good for getting that plaster off.
Was just thinking that! But then again, could it be too powerful for the aluminium housing?
dunno, if you just went lightly and kept a shallow angle, should be ok.
Air nozzle to blow out. Would need to wear dust mask.
Just started watching recently love it. I wonder have any of your customers ever seen there stuff fixed
Yea, all the time now. Some come in the next day to get the machines. Because they seen it being fixed the pervious evening.
Very handy for me, means I don't have to ring
I've been using makita LXT tools for just under 20 years now. I have had 1 battery die on me and it was one of the original 3.0ah batteries without the star on the case. I have batteries that have had literally hundreds on cycles on them and they are still going strong. Every now and again I get a dewalt or Milwaukee set and inevitably the batteries die after 2 or 3 years. Milwaukee batteries seem to have the magical ability to die sitting on a shelf. Had a few M12 tools a few years ago and 6 batteries. Bought them as light duty workshop tools for when I was doing furniture making and all the Makitas were out with the lads. One of the batteries never even got used in a tool, it was charged and put on the shelf and 14 months later I went back and it was dead, a second one died a few months later and had no more than 2 or 3 cycles on it. Will never buy a red tool again.
You are the most macho youtuber i have seen😄👍
Don't know about that.
@@deandohertygreaser Hehe, i like your style👍 Never change..
Another series o’miracles from St. Dean’s healing bench 🙌
Love my DHP486 almost same as my DHP481. But as you say I also had a problem with a clutch (Iam hobby guy, my staff looks same as first day) still it broke. Luckaly just 2 days before warranty expired.... 🙂😂
Thanks for another great one Dean. Much appreciated mate.
I have a dhp486 and I would like to preemptively fix the issue you describe. Can you give more specific directions on where to find (purchase) this ring assy? I found 450385-8 as part number but varying prices.
Thank you for letting me know about hilti hammer drills. I have a Makita drill with hammer; I would rather have a plain drill.
Hilti truly are the Apple of the tool world. Can't understand why anyone buys their tools.
Good to know I’m never buying Hilti again!
That last one was a "resurrection", and done very nicely. Thanks for your time and talents.
46:40 Here where I live Makita provides 2 - year warranty. If all papers lost, warranty starts from date shown on product.
احسنت العمل يارجل
Do you do this as your
Job is is this a hobby, I’m hooked lol
I wonder if that pin issue is the same on the 40v drill. Mine slips heaps and its kind hard to replicate
I feel like they can put a basic lip seal in front of the bearing to protect it better? I mean of course it would not last indefinitely, but will prolong the life of the bearing significantly.
I wouldn't have known that Hilti is not a good brand, thanks.
11:13 that's some battery kung-fu moves!
Fixing this mixing drill looks like an archeological dig.
brilliant love the longer video’s
That big plaster drill with the red grease inside looked gruesome...literally internal "guts"
Surely there’s a market for a rubber grommet seal type gizmo to go over the attachment end of the mixing drill end to minimise the schmoo getting in ??
Business op right there
I was looking for this comment 👍
Sounds like an aliexpress/ebay listing: rubber grommet seal type gizmo attachment end mixing drill anti schmoo bearing life extender
It's just bonkers that Makita used just 2 steel location pins in that cradle instead of 4 (Which the nylon part is designed to accept). I could even turn them up on the lathe. Why ruin their reputation for the want of 2 steel pins? It's nice to see a soldering iron with LED lights in it, Helpful idea.
Hi Dean, love your channel!
How come so few festool machines come in?
Are they so much better made that the don’t break so often? Low sales volumes?
Br Jonas
Low sale volume, the saws and sanders are very good. Vacs also. The rest I find over priced and and don't hear good things on.
@@deandohertygreaser Thanks for the reply!
Okay! In Sweden where I live many finishing carpenters use them. Especially their track saw, miter saw and installation screw driver.
Br:)
I wish we only got our first frost, its -4F(-20C) right now haha
It must be a common thing with that bosch drill im only after fixing the exact drill and an sds with the same problem
Another great watch .. how do you remember all the little tips and tricks like the little connector pin when dismantling the Bosch machine ?? Good to know about the Makita drill gear speed selector issue thanks .. you should order some pins in and sell them on …. I’d defo buy them simple web page and link ?
This man is a MASTER.
Watching him tear through every make/model of tool like it is the only one that he sees, is incredible.
There was a Disco in that Evolution saw motor.😂
So Dean I just got back from Japan and every hotel we stayed in the housekeeping staff were all using these very nifty looking Makita cordless hoovers. What do think of these?
probably no the same model as we get here
Notice you don't recondition the commutator. That's something most shops in the US perform. Just sayin'
Bạn có thể bán lại cho tôi những con máy bị hỏng hay lỗi đó không vậy
Thank you Sir
Milwaukee, not potted, no heat sink, the same price as the high end stuff 🤦♂️
The even bigger problem with dhp486 is the the slipping while you trying to tighten the chuck. It just doesn't hold it sometimes. Is there something can be done to fix that?
Weld tight
My DHP486 has a really good drill chuck, I have used it with an M12 mm cutting tap to cut threads in 10mm thick steel, it could hold the cutting tap fine without it slipping in the drill chuck. So I think there must be something wrong with your drill chuck.
"She's tripped my breaker." Uh-oh. |-)
hàng có bán không vậy a
Hi Dean do you rate Festool equipment ? I haven’t seen you repair much of it.
why you didnt fix the wire on 47:30 ???
thank you for your great videos, is the DDF486 having the same gearbox issues as the DHP486 ?
no the DDF is a drill driver, drill driver drills are always more reliable than combi drills. I never understood why combi drills where so populare.
The main issue is the the hammer funtion, no hammer, less problems
Annoys me that Milwaukee are so anti repair. The M12 stuff is so high performing and compact - and certainly seems to be more reliable than the 18v stuff
Does the 484 have the same problem as this 486 with clutch?
Waiting for the usual "I wouldn't touch it till they cleaned it off, I always clean tools after use etc" some of us live in the real world.
Seems like trigger and controller problems really kill Makita Tools.
Have seen plenty of your videos where its a no fix straight away because the price of these parts is trough the roof.
So, if the problem with makita gearbox is 2 more pins, why you did not istalled all 4 of them, when you did the swap? (2 from the defective gearbox).
Because I had already done that repair to that gearbox in the past. thats is why i opened the faulty gearbox and not the good one.
What's the story with the split steel ring that was around the bearing on the plaster mixer but was still on the bench when you put the whole thing back together ???
That's not part of the mixer, Dean uses that to protect the aluminium casing on the mixer when pressing the bearing out. He uses that spacer a few times when using the bearing press in some of his other videos.
Do you have a link for the long series drivers you use?
Where would I get Milwaukee radio replacement parts
"and... ...Milwaukee."
The sound of disappointment.
Bosch 9-125, the small one with variable speed: If I leave it plugged in without using it it gets awfully hot. Should I send it for repair, still under warranty.
diffinantly, should not be getting hot when not in use
@@deandohertygreaser thanks man
The makita machine around 48 minutes looks like there is a battery pin missing on the bottom of the machine 😅
Just a prediction, the Milwaukee will have a chip issue, therefore not worth his time
Edit: oh damn, they sell it separately?!
Dear Mr. Doherty could you make a video ruining some tools just to show people what NOT to do if they value their tools? 😎
That's an idea, might do when I get some free time.
Dean Doherty, Ladies and Gentlemen
20 Euro for brushes for a saw that’s like 40 - 50 euro. They really want us to throw stuff away…
Too bad you can't seal that board with silicone spray huh?
How the hell did you learn how to fix all these things
51:05 That totally sounds like a Sony Timer, horrible.
Too bad Makita doesn't honor a warranty from it's date code
❤❤❤
😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Bought the makita drill second hand 😂probably stolen
How can we all sit idly by while a poor disabled Makita gets screwed by a Bosch? Is this what our world has come to?
I emailed Milwaukee service and parts on how shit and tacky their power tools are for repair parts at a component level and how I will never recommend any of their products to anyone even though I personally own a lot of their power tools and all I got off them is "We will pass on your email to the relevant department and get them to contact you" safe to say that was about 4 months ago heard nothing from them but what did I expect.
If I was a power tool manufacturer I would modify any part that had a high problem or failure rate and sort it fair enough your not going to sell many spare parts but your products will get recommended more for reliability so people will choose you as a make than other makes I certainly would.
I buy a cordless drill to drill things not use the hammer function or the clutch function, if I need to screw in a fastener I use trigger control I never use the clutch function.
why buy makita when you can buy Bosch😄
8:44 LMAO imagine buying that overpriced grease gun, it barely spits any grease.
What i dont get is. You are doing this to make money. And you say its not wort fixing. Its like to say you dont want to make money?
