HLA66 speeding up and down.

[Gerbutt]

Hello all

 

I have a HLA66 that speeding up and down when the trigger is held fully down. Has anyone got any ideas to to what may be amiss?

Sorry Andy....it is a new fangled battery thingy🙄😉

It could be an issue with the bearings in the cutter head or the blades binding a bit. Try a bit of lubrication.....for the machine, not you👍

As mentioned above...could be a blade binding issue, but the bearings sound really rough...certainly not a smooth operation. As its being run in the video, spray some lube on the blades...if it changes the blade speed, then look in the blade area for the issue. Gum, burred teeth..that sort of thing. To my mind it sounds motor/bearing related though

I thought I would take a chance as the video would not load ! In fact all videos take forever to load and some wont play at all since I have gone over to " super fast broad band " Does my head in !

All I got was an image but recognized the model number. These electric trimmers don't too much thick grease or gummed up blades, too much load on ramp up.

Haven’t you considered going to Ultra fast lightning aero broadband yet?

 

It promises speeds rarely seen since dial-up.

It was faster with the old copper wire because the router was next to the computer and hard wired into the back of it . The new " super fast fiber " router is now on the window ledge in the front room where it comes through the wall . PC is in the back room and now relies on the wifi . I am going to take a cable from the new router and run it across the house and wire it strait into the back of the PC see if that helps .
