Dean is a man who has perfected his craft. He makes it look easy because he's been doing it a long time. That comes with repetition. People say I make my craft look easy, but I've been doing it over 20 years. People can do it if they're willing to put in the time. I'm actually looking for old broken tools, just so I can try this while process. His videos are very well done and informative. Thanks Dean, you're the best

Bosch should honour this mans warranty, tool failed through metal fatigue, evidence is here courtesy of Dean,s superb,workmanship and diagnosis, do the right thing Bosch!

Highly unlikely, but hopefully Bosch watches this and takes care of your customer. You are Bosch's best salesman. You shoot us straight, while you're tearing their stuff apart, and praise them normally.

And that's her! the bob ross of tool repair

"It's just self-assembly." Well, for Dean maybe. Not us mortals.

Definitely saved the owner a few euros by not having to buy the whole repair kit. Lucky you have such a great range of stock. Another satisfied customer.

I think Bosch could be persuaded that this type of fracture on a striker bolt was a manufacturing defect and not as a result of normal wear.

Your customer could send that faulty part to Bosch Uk. They may refund the cost of repair due to the strange failure mode.

Experience counts, good job mate 👍

A nice video.I think bosch should own the defective quality and send the replenishing spares used

Good evening great video thanks again for your video 📹 👍 😀 all the ways from the Philippines 🇵🇭 one of the best 👌 👍 😍 🥰

Best one lately!!!😮

Surely there must have been a wierd defect in that part for it to split right across like that. If other people see that failure on a young tool again - Bosch needs to find out why. As ever Dean your videos are very well narrated. I learn more from you every time. Especially diagnostics.

Dean. I work in the electronics industry here in ireland. Not commented before. Love the way you broke down the component parts of this hammer drill. Made it so simple. Based on your videos I’ve taken the same methodical approach in my own industry and encountered an issue with a touch panel from a well known controls system brand. Needless to say, I took it apart and recorded a video of what I was doing. I found the flaw and am surprised to say was able to fix it with a bit of solder and a cable tie. Happy customer. Never would have even attempted it had I not been so lucky as to come across your KZfaq channel. Keep it up. You are a master at your craft. Very few folk left like you these days. Trust me, I’m of the generation that sits between what is now and what is yours. Would love to come and work with you in the shop some day. That would be an experience.

It won't hammer......its not unusual it happens all the time.....there's a song in there deano....lol 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

"Unusual" I dont think it can top up the "Do It Yourself" sander in a shoebox from year 2000 from previous video.

Great one, Dean Keep em coming!!!!!!!!!

Cool! Fantastic man

I really love watching these but damn you need to get yourself 20 different gloves and try them on until you find the one you like haha

Your videos are awesome, you inspire me to ttry and fix my fathers Bosch GGS 18 V-LI that he was gonna throw out the motor was loose and had spun around and cut the cables, fixed it as best as i could and the maching went smother than ever keep doing what you do!

Thank you Sir

Quality. Thank you.

First, congratulations for the excellent didactics with which you explain. And secondly, ask you about the two fats you use. From already thank you very much

I love your videos. You are the Louis Rossman of tool repair

Another great video. Thanks.

Thanks again for a great video.

Top job as always pal

Great work, as per the norm. Nailed it right off the bat with a twist. Hopefully customer did so the online rego.

Dynamic Dynamo Dean !!!!!!!!

Dean is on the job

We had the strike lock up on a brand new hammer a year ago or so, it was never even used. I think i now know what happened, probably stored the case on its side in the van. it's a nice hammer but i really hate the trigger design, everyone always accidentally turns off the hammer while handling it.

The parts that had failed. Will you send them back to bosch for them to have a look at.. or will they go straight for recycling? If it did ho back to bosch it would be nice to hear an update from them after they tested it.

It's a good thing you showing the downturn of Bosch quality. We builders are watching! Thanks, Dean!

800 Euro 😱😱

This was clearly a case of a manufacturers fault and regardless of Bosch warranty policy they should handle this one under warrenty even after 2 years of manufacturing date in my opinion. Unfortunately Bosch is not the easiest when it comes to warranty cases ...

Ill stick with my Milwaukee unlike you had bugger all problems with any of my tools n love my 5yr warranty, electric problems on couple Milwaukee fixed within week no questions asked.

whats that little keyring torch youre using Dean? good bit of kit

Just a matter of interest..did you show the customer the damaged part Dean

Bosch quality these days

To you all those parts look simple when divided in the desperate parts, but to the rest of us that probably haven't seen those parts before, it looks like having to do brain surgery 😂

Must be a manufacturing issue.. A striker pin must be made from some of the hardest most ductile steel you can get for it to last at all. So this pin must have just been forged incorrectly or the root cause was impurity in the steel who knows. Bosch should be notified about this failure.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👌

I wonder what caused this mode of failure? A defect in the metal of the striker pin, perhaps?

we have a 11241EVS, dad bought it more than 20 years ago. We rarely use it, maybe 0-3 times a year. Recently it didnt want to hammer, have to pull on the tool holder sleeve to loose the chisel and somehow the hammer would then work. once it warmed up it stayed hammering until the job is done. But I was curious and opened the cover to check it, all the grease is black. And damn, I didnt know you have to put back the screws like that, i just straight up screwed it back in. Did I screw my hammer?

Could the pin have had a flaw in the crystalline structure of the metal ?

What's the part number for the light grease put the gear casing? I serviced one of these but went with the mineral oil, should I replace it with the light grease?

Hi Dean, we're you an employee who of ToolsStream?

Ah, good. Chinese metallurgy - emphasis on the lurgy - spreading to the workhorse brands.

Interesting fault. Does Bosch collect reports of such incidents ?

Bosch quality has gone down the drain. Everyone should avoid them.

2:52 Are you sure it couldn't possibly be a bad 'turbo', being it's a *"Turbo Power"* version?😂😂🤔🤦🏻‍♂️ 🛠️🔧🔩⛓️👌🏻👍🏻🚜🏗️😂

I hope Bosch is watching, this has to be manufacturing fault as this machine has not seen much work at all. Lets just hope it's not the beginning of the end of Bosch quality.

What torch is that on your key ring?
