My charger displayed cold/hot pack

This is indicating the battery is too hot to charge, usually after coming off the tool right after some hard work. During the charging process the battey heats up so if you charge a hot battery, thereby making it hotter, you shorten the lifespan of the battery considerably. If you are getting a hot/cold pack delay indication on the charger, it should automatically start charging once the battery has cooled down sufficently.

My dewalt dw735 planer will not turn on

https://www.dewalt.com/products/power-tools/routers-planers-and-joiners/planers-and-joiners/13-in-three-knife-two-speed-thickness-planer/dw735 You have to register to read the information (BAD, Dewalt. Bad dog.) In general> Check outlet, try another AC outlet. Check power cord end to end for damage. Do you have a non-contact AC indicator? (You should) Are you getting AC to the machine? Check built in fuse or breaker on the tool. Check the switch, does it feel and sound like it is switching correctly? Or is something different?

I bought a DeWalt DG6000E that is missing a Shutoff Solenoid on the carb. I can get a replacement but it has two wires on the bottom that I cannot find a place to plug them in. Can you help please.

The after fire solenoid helps prevent backfire when the engine is turned off. You can operate the genset without the solenoid and likely it will shut off without issue.

You can easily test by removing the solenoid plunger or the tip of the plunger and reinstall the solenoid.

Radio not working

Have you tried changing the AA Batteries, sounds simple, but a lot of people forget to try this. When they go flat, they lock the radio out and nothing will work. HHM Dewalt Agent

My dewalt 1223 brad nailer will not fire

The nailer must be firmly pressed against the surface you are planning to nail. This will arm the nailer in preparation for firing the nail.

When a board goes thru the cutting bars raise up. we have checked out and tightened the locking bar. everything seems fine.

Educated guess that the adjustment screw (knob) is not locked OR the screw shaft is worn on the top/bottom allowing the gear to jump off the screw thread. Does it shake when the planner is off? A question is Is the thickness indicator still showing the original setting? From another site: Once the height is set, remember to push the black bar back down to lock the cutting head in place. DeWalt web site customer rep might be able to assist you.
