Twoply Posted May 5, 2022 Report Share Posted May 5, 2022 When I try to use it, it just starts, and shuts off. It makes a soft grinding sound and shuts off after about a half blade revolution. The little LED lights turns on when I press the trigger. I can rotate the blade and it makes the same grinding noise. Not a sharp metal on metal grind, almost like a hard plastic on hard plastic - dull grinding. It gets fresh battery and still the same. I've removed the spindle assembly and it still does the same. No loose metal in there to indicate a stripped gear. I dont think the armature fins are dragging on anything. I did notice a wire's insulation was rubbed raw. As I separated all the wires, it started to run for about 2 revolution, then die again. The battery almost feels like it's drained because it will stop even trying after a few tries. If I let it rest, it will start again. The little black resister gets pretty hot while I'm attempting to operate this thing. Help! Thanks in advance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
