  • The old Hitachi HM50MR Hammer came in because it was not letting the bit into the tool holder.
    But the whole head was actually slack and wobbling around. the 4 bolts holding it had backed out and if left would destroy the piston and Hammer pipe.
    quick strip, clean and rebuild with new grease gets her working and looking like new again.

    I'd bet he (or his apprentice) jammed that quick-release against something while it was operating, lost the bit and rolled the collet over the retaining pins before he even noticed what was happening. Good show!

    Dean, watching your videos almost makes me wish one of my tools would break down and need repair--just to try to use some of what I've learned from you. Cheers!

    Personally, I always quite liked Hitachi hammers. Maybe not as good as a Bosch, but good, simple robust machines none the less, and definitely better built than average.

    Would be good to know the exact grease you are putting on for every task.
    Mentioning 'Hilti grease' once didn't help much :]
    On a 'plus' side - love the way you appear to get the right Allen key size pretty much 100%.

    I like the hinged part of the clamp on the front handle making it easier to remove/install.

    You get and deserve a lot of comments knowledge and expertise. Your video editing is top notch as well. You speed through the boring or repetitive bits but every once in a while throw them in to show us how you do them. An example would be the parts washing in this video.

      Quality has dropped so bad, there will be an influx of them shortly so we are stepping away from them.

      Id imagine he finds pleasure in fixing a machine with parts that have been sitting on the shelves for 5+ years when they may not be produced anymore as its verification hes looking after his customers as an independant repair shop vs an actual huge service center.
      Hes fantastic at keeping 10+ year old machines going.

  • @yiannis_b5504
    @yiannis_b5504 Місяць тому

    I am a bit skeptical, about cleaning assemblies as one piece with solvents. That way you remove the grease between the parts, without actually regreasing during assembly. Plus some solvent might be also there.

    • @zaxmaxlax
      @zaxmaxlax Місяць тому +1

      He dries it before assembly, also, he puts a fair amount of new grease back, for good measure.

    • @shifty277
      @shifty277 Місяць тому +1

      Air hose on it after, then along with the cut up rags from a closed down factory i think he said along with new grease. This man probably re assembles tools back better than factory due to the effort he puts in.
