- My Ryobi Reciprocating Saw, starting smoking after some extremely heavy use,, I trimmed down 3 threes, from 6 to 3 meters, and that was a bit much for the Reciprocating Saw.

For 3$ a month, you get an extra weekly "What's UP" update video. Just for my Patrons. The Support I resave on patreon is all used on stuff to make interesting videos on UA-cam.
My PlayHouse is a channel where i will show, what i am working on. I have this house, it is 168 Square Meters / 1808.3ft² and it is full, of half-finished projects.
I love working with heating, insulation, Servers, computers, Datacenter, green power, alternative energy, solar, wind and more. It all costs, but I'm trying to get the most out of my money, and my time.
Very responsible of you to fix this simple tool. Always seems a shame to ship one little motor, bummer it was wrong spec!
Hi James Larson
Thank You very much! to bad it did not have the right gear - glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
I have one of the really old dark blue ryobi recip saws I got @ a thrift store - think it was 5 or 10$. I've put the lithium batts in there it's a great tool for cutting heavy and light gauge mild steel. No smoking problems. Most of my Ryobi tools are the old blue ones - they just keep on going. I have a few of the lime green ones - jig and the right angle - and they seem okay as well. But gotta say, the blue puppies are awesome and I've seen them regularly on thriftstore shelves. They take the modern batts, so no brainer to just use up the old ones.
Seems there's more and more vids of certain Ryobi tools - smoking from mild to moderate use. So seems like they are beginning to loose their edge. In any case, for a home DIY'er, the old blues and SOME of the lime green puppies are good to go.
Thanks for the vid - love that you filmed the entire process - pretty cool!
Peace

Hello am back watching the episodes that I missed xD I hope you are doing great and enjoying summer xD ^.^ have a great day
Summer,, it cold here :-/ it sucks right now..
When I am soldering wire or something like moders i use at least Liquid Electrical Tape to seal it soft so if I can and is needed I use heat shrink tubing to like wire and stuff then u not water safe great job on fixing he saw and great vid as all way keep them coming and hope u have a great day and stay safe from the virus
You know it is ALL Troy's fault,, he got me on to Ryobi tools :-) Now I have a ton of them..
@@MyPlayHouse yes i no love them to and love the work u do with them I no the tool r like crack one hit u need more and more lol keep up the great work from a great guy hope u have a great day and stay safe
Well made Sir 👍
Hi DIY with Batteries
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
Very nice and entertaining video. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You can use a solder sucker or solder braid to remove excess solder like that.

Great video!!!
Hi Mick Carroll
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
just to note the shaft with the cut out is a knock off or cheap copy use the one with the 5mm round shaft. The original type one will be all copper winding while the one with the cut out is aluminium kind of winding. this tool uses 11 teeth and 5mm shaft.
Hi rs2klee
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)

I have had the exact same issue on my Ryobi reciprocating saw... It's still in the TODO-pile ;)
Also motor issues on two circular saws. I have kind of given up on Ryobi because of the motor issues.
i got all in Ryobi from sqrew machines to branch chainsaw. i think i got like 15 diff machines and none have given up evev rough treatment.
Well my shipping address in under the "about" tap if it could be more fun to see it I can relive them :-)
I get that you want the brushless :) A way could be to steal the fan from the new motor, and mount it in the old motor.
I am not sure they are really meant to come off..
good weekend !!
You too!
Your spot on we do want new toy all the time for shure
Sure
We all like getting new stuff,,, I also like fixing old stuff,, I gave this one away to my friend,, as I got a new one.
@@MyPlayHouse we are kindred spirits 👍
😅I use mine to cut fire wood into manageable pieces and noticed I smelled a little something like hot melted plastic. Well I was on my last piece and thought “oh I’ll only be using it for 2 more minutes it will be fine” and it started smoking
You better check if the motor fan is still spinning..
Looks like the bushings in the reciprocating mechanism are worn. I'm looking for replacements for mine right now :) If you reversed the motor polarity you would change the wear to the other side of the rear bushing - that's the one that takes the most abuse. (it looks like you did reverse direction - nice!)
The bushing wears down on the right hand side and then the push rod starts to make contact with the casting and I suppose given time it will break through it.
That would be a mistake on my side,, or random. :-)
Removing the pinion gear, from a burnt motor is easy... simply use a rotary cut-off tool (Dremel) to cut the armature shaft, behind the pinion. Then drive the pressed shaft with a small pin punch and a hammer.
Removing the pinion gear, from a new motor, is more difficult... it requires a pinion puller, which may cost as much as a new motor.
Not a bad suggestion,,,
Hello four dollar racing, to get that gear off that tiny shaft of the ryobi motor use small hammer with nail puller and gear come off but have to put motor in vise to obtain the gear pull, same as pull nail out wood
I kinda did the same orderd a motor online and its the same one as u have, if only i had sen this video before lol..
Still dident find a original one that dosent cost a leg
Thank You,, I like fixing stuff..
13:52 It is nice to have reverse action tweezers to hold wire. It acts as your third hand
It also becomes hot,,, :-)
Mine also let a bit of smoke out when using it to cut down trees... I suppose that's not what it's designed for 😂 but my fan didn't melt off..
Hi Robert Leitch
Thank You very much! glad you liked the video :-)
Thank you for watching! :-)
The motor designation you are looking for is Mabuchi 550, a much copied design. It has been a classic with motors for radio controlled boats and cars for decades, and I am confident that the usual suspects (Graupner/Simprop/Robbe/Kyosho etc.) have the choiciest collections of tuning stages for that bugger in all kinds of shaft diameters. No need to rely on the chinesium ones. ^^)
This one was a 775 motor :-)
@@MyPlayHouse Well, looks like the 550s are a drop-in kind of replacement. ^^)
Having seem the difference in performance between common 540s and their high efficiency brethren back then makes me wonder if a high efficiency 550 version won´t rattle a reciprocating saw to bits before you had time to let go of the switch, though. It´s drastic!
@@Eo_Tunun 550 and 775 are different - the numbers refer to the motor size.
Even electronics are giving up smoking. Untill they smoke magic smoke
This got warm, and started to smoke,, :-)
I like your video, so I found the part number: "Ryobi 230074015" is the factory replacement part...
Thank you very much,, I placed an order for one :-)
This Ryobi is cheap so you shouldn't expect much. I use mine for short duration work only. If you are cutting down trees, get a better saw.
I worked this way to hard,, I got a new one,, and fixed this one and gave it to my friend.
Note for some reason this video refuses to play on smart TV.. just this all others work fine
Humm,, maybe I have become to dumb,, for the Smart TV :-)
Could you have swapped the fan from the new motor into the old one?
I had glued the old one weeks ago,, and not sure if the fans comes off.. but maybe.. :-)
This model of saw seems to have a burn out issue. I know plenty of people having the same issue with theirs.
Okay,, I did also really also abuse it,, taking down trees with it.
@@MyPlayHouse It does seem to happen a lot though. Even on the website of the hardware store here that sell them, there are a lot of people mentioning the same problem you have had. I think that motor fan might be a design flaw since the common complaint is "motor burns out, smoking, dies".
These motors all look pretty much the same, you really have to go by the numbers that are written on the side of it (sometimes they also mention how many teeth the gear wheel on the shaft has), otherwise you'll end up buying something that doesn't work. I have a Bosch cordless drill (rather old one), which does have a smokey, stinky and sparkly motor, and there are no spare parts available for it any more, it's a shame to have to throw an otherwise OK working tool out into the trash! Darn planned obsolescence....
I did not get any results on the model number but a lot of results in the motor size. it looked about right, on the pictures :-/
Go to a mill workshop and change the pinions
I do not think that worth be cheap,, labor is expensive here.
@@MyPlayHouse OK 👍
👍
:-)Thank you
Does anyone know how serial # cross references to model on Ryobi reciprocating saw..frustrated at anti-consumer mindset of corporate.
No,, sorry.
No RGB... no watercooling.... ^^
no
Are you making UA-cam videos on tape cassettes? Rewind?
Uhh dear,, what a mess this would be on tape..
@@MyPlayHouse I think your kids will tell you they don't know what rewind means.
It's a shame that they didn't add an overheat sensor or bi-metallic switch on the motor, it would have saved the motor fan from melting.
But that's a cheap nasty Ryobi for you ha ha just a joke :-D.
I bet the fan was put on the shaft before the commutator assembly was added, so you can't transplant the new fan :-(.
You just know that it would be the temperature sensor that would stop working instead :-/
Goes to show how cheap things are made today. Tools made years ago worked so much better.
Back when dad was a little girl,,,,, :-)
...not really: It all sucks, the build quality, the metallurgy, the wiring, the older stuff is terrible..
I pretty much bathe in old stuff 👋
The mechanism in this one and the "old blue one" everyone seems to like so much is the exact same mechanism and motor, the older blue has worse ventilation too. They only really survive to the present day because they're antiques so people don't use them very hard
I hate when I buy parts and they're wrong, I start the blame game. Then the now what game, and then eventually give up game. My moto now is don't buy too much stuff. RENT ; )
Bit tools I would rent,, and stuff I know I will only use once,, and they are big..
I saw on another video that the drive assembly has absolutely no lubrication which is a dumb thing for Ryobi to do as it causes wear and greater strain on all components. I would say cheap and dumb engineering at best...engineered obsolescence at worst?
Well I was taking down trees wit it,, I misused it,I did manage to fix it in a later video ,, new motor,, think iw was a bout $20,, not to bad.
hey, your screwdriver isn't Ryobi.
But his flexible screwdriver extension is Ryobi
Ahh damn,, you got me :-)
