Hey man just wanted to say I appreciate how much you work you put into uploading tons of videos, always super informative but also cut right to the shit. Learned a lot from you. Thanks again!

Thanks Dean very helpful information 🦘

Hi Dean, great watching you, I have the same DW708 and have the same problem. You are very good at explaining how to repair. Where are you located, I would love you to fix a saw in Birmingham if you do that for people. Thank you.

Going to echo a few comments here - thank you for the videos Dean. I have rescued my Makita DHP482 from the bin based on your videos. One question, what make are those hex shank screwdriver bits you use?

Glad it helped. the bits are Wiha. They are out of the system 6 set they have. very handy for using in a drill. digicat.wiha.com/gb/en/tools/multitools/interchangeable-blades/wiha-system-6/sets/579/screwdriver-with-interchangeable-blade-set-system-6?c=19

People really need to learn how to clear the vents. I'd hate to think about how much kit you have to repair just because there was an overheating issue caused by blocked vents 😅

One thing does surprise me - you don't use a magnetic tray for small parts & screws etc, which is automatic with me. Instead you only strip & handle one device on the bench at any time. Then use parts bins for devices awaiting parts. I did once borrow & use one of these nice DeWalt chopsaws, which are generally lovely to use & cut cleanly.

Thanks as usual Dean!!!!!

hi , so how would "you" get the fan off of this if the bearing was the other side of the fan as seems to be the case in radial arm saws, i have seen a lot of videos where people struggle with this problem do you have any thoughts or a video showing how you personaly accomplish this and do all bearing manufactures use the same code numbers ie pn# 6203 will be the same from all producers but of a diffrent quality . thanks again for the videos

great job

99% if these Dewalts I repaired that had motor/sound issues it was the large bearring on the armature being bad or even totally gone. Also I think on newer types of this model they use 2 speeds and a screw for the pulley instead of it being fit on which makes a lot easier to repair.

Looks almost new - yellow cased power tools aint what they used to be.

I have a new matabo miter saw and the brushes spark. Is that normal?

whats the 3 jaw bearing puller you used in the video?

It's a Sykes Pickavant micro bearing puller. There are a few copy versions (Laser Tools, Force Tools, Neilsen) that look identical and are much cheaper, but I'd guess the genuine SP one is much better quality, and they even sell spare parts for the puller in case you break something.

iirc he also uses a BGS micro puller i think.

What is it these days with manufacturers scrimping and cutting corners?. The cost saving for SBD is just a few Euros, but the long term cost will be much more. DeWalt miter saws have always been very highly regarded but it seems they do not care any more about their reputation.

I tell you what it is. Yearly bonus is based on past income/profit in company. Not the future one. Most people just worry about their yearly bonus. Not the future reputation of the company/brand. Sad but true.

Dewalt inherited a gold plated reputation for power tools when they bought the ELU brand, back in the day, especially with their chop saws, and routers. How times have changed !

​@@johnbullard5973I used to have a load of Elu kit & still have the Planer & a 96E router. The Planer is probably 30yrs old & only things I replaced on it are blades & belt, it's still a beast of a Planer with 4mm cut. Had their cordless drills also but tbh they weren't they great. But had the Elu diamond core drill that was absolutely awesome until someone stole it. But very shortly after Dewalt took over the quality started to deteriorate. Wasn't anything specific they were just a bit more rattley & you could just tell the parts being used were inferior & while some of their tools now are very good a lot of them are absolutely terrible.

JAMA bearings are a good quality CHINA brand.

😊

Made in Italy it says - is that actually made in China and 'assembled' in Italy?

You could a clean up the parts before reinstall but you didn't.

Dodgy Chinese bearings = DeWALT quality these days unfortunately.

yes, thats true. i see budget brands using nsk bearing now. but big brands like dewalt using the cheapest of the cheap parts.

Sorry Dean, but going to have to say good bye. Far to many adds now. 6 over 22 minutes, all lasting 40 seconds. Shame really as enjoyed your video's and really learned a lot and looked forward to them. I know it pays,but to many.
