I had a problem with a Von Haus trimmer that had seized and wouldn't turn. I looked online for help and found this site. As I watched the video I realised that all strimmers worked on a similar principle and that the instructions to take it apart were very clearly expressed and visually displayed. As such, I felt confident to take my strimmer apart and managed to get it working again. That solved my problem and saved me money. A big Thank You for a very professional and helpful tutorial.

Thank you! Very clearly presented and very helpful. Well done!

Great lesson. Thanks. You've saved me a lot of worry.

OMG. This fixed my hedge trimmer that I was about to take to the local DeWalt service center. KZread for the win!

Very helpful video; thanks. What do you suggest for cleaning of gummed up trimmer blades as with tree or plant "sap"?

Left my trimmer outside under the carport underneath a tarp.It runs fine but blades rusted and won't turn.1st thought was to replace blades but will try the steps you covered in this excellent video. A million thanks, young man.

If the drive shaft won't turn then you have a bigger issue in the motor. It could be many things at this point.

Brand new worked once. Tried again on day 2 , berrrrr

Do you have any branch near Ilford Essex pl let me know .

My trimmer was working fine! Hit a branch that was to thick, now it doesn't trim anything though the blades are moving. Maybe they aren't opening far enough? I didn't notice any obstructions.

That gearbox looks very different from the ones on my petrol hedgecutters, principles the same though. Strip mine down at least once a year!

It is recommended after every 50 hours of use.

Good video, except you should have taken the battery out before you put it back together, an accident waiting to happen!!

Not technically, but I have been doing this for a month shy of 10 years now.

Respect! But I do feel a little aggrieved. Three things? One, clear any debris. Easily done. Two, see if there are any bent blades. OK, that's simple. Three, STRIP DOWN YOUR HEDGE TRIMMER, REPLACE ANY PARTS AND REASSEMBLE IT. Yikes!!

I know it can seem intimidating but most trimmers aren't any more complex than this one so if it comes down to it then you should easily be able to do it by watching this vid.
