What? This doesnt make sense to me. I have this same issue, i have no idea why yours tightens but no matter how much torque i use snd my torque drill ot still stays loose.
Does anyone know if the shaft is supposed to engage when you're pull starting the engine? I have a Husqvarna 128ld that I put back together and when I rotate the engine by hand, the shaft acts like it isn't engaged with the engine. I inspected the clutch and didn't notice any damage.
Thanks a lot for sharing this information. Had a Dewalt battery fail on second charge. Jumped it with a 12v motorcycle battery as you showed. Sparked and is now charing on charger. Excellent! Thanks again!!
This worked for me…THANK YOU! 8 month old battery barely used. I suspect it does not like being completely drained, mine was powering the Dewalt inflator airing up an extremely low set of tires. Died while trying to air up the last one. I used my Schumacher battery charger set to 40a, just gave it a quick tap to get a tiny spark. Charging fine now.
It worked great for me I use the battery charger/Maintenance with prong or the circle things and place them in the same locations as you and voila it work once I place it on the dewalt charger.
I have a 2011 and it does the same thing. It will smoke for a few minutes and it stops. Does it all over again the next time I cut the lawn. I've just been to lazy to do what you just did. lol. Mine only leaks when it sits for a while. Mine is garage kept. No rust. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome. Saved my bacon. My chain tightener came out of the track. On a Sunday with a pile of work to do. The rope trick worked. Thanks for the advice waiting for it to get to the top. Close to the top worked for me. I have a 353. So have a couple other pieces. One thing I did have to muck with was lining things up putting it back together.particularly bad and chain.
Worked for me. Used a 12v car battery charger and sparked it a few times. Fyi ...initially I tried it at 2 volts but it didn't work. Wonder what the science behind this is?
That's great but you didn't make clear what the leads are connected to. Are they connected to a battery charger? Edit: Saw a comment about using a 9v to do the same thing so I tried it, holy crap, it work, just canceled my charger order. Thank you Thank you Thank you Disgusting of Dewalt to have not handled this, I've thrown out tons of batteries and even bought another charger in the past. This is the kind of crap that causes me to not feel sympathy for corporations when I hear of people stealing from them.
Thank you! I used one of those small, portable jumpstart battery packs and although I didn't hear it "spark" I got my Arlo batteries revived after a few rounds of 20-30 seconds!
@@anthonymilette9814 usually if you have a battery with 2 bars and it won't charge to 3 bars, that's the battery not the charger. That usually means one of the cells are out on the battery and so it can only charge the remaining cells.
I have a 6V/12V Black & Decker car charger that I'd like to try this with, but is there any risk of explosion? I'm kind of nervous since the battery is meant to be charged at 5 or 9V.
I have the same question. Since a regular charging block can do 5 or 9, and that isn't enough to wake it up, I'm thinking the charger should be set to 12V.
I have the same weed eater, the battery stopped charging (the charger works, just not the battery for this!) Ty for this video I can finally get to work on my crazily over grown yard
So my buddy ran his chainsaw way to lean and the piston froze up. He squirted mixed gas in it and it started moving again but won't start now. It was starting in 3 pulls before. Did he ruin the saw. I'm asking for a freind.
Tried a 12volt battery tender charger and 2 razor blades but got no spark. Put the blades in between another porter cable 20v and the Dewalt 20v and got spark. Back in business and working now.
