Why is the rotozip spiral saw smoke when i go to cut after replacing the bit

Try a light penetrating oil on the threads, and allow time for it to work. Sometimes working the nut in both directions, back and forth, a little at a time fill allow the penetrant to lubricate the threads better, allowing it to be more easily removed.

righty tighty

Did you ever solve this problem? Mine just did the same thing right after I put a new blade on for the first time I ever used it

You may have to split the housing for this. I have seen where the pin can become bent or where the plastic housing becomes worn at the pin and allows it to move around too much. They usually also have a small spring with the pin which may have failed.

Try a little PB blaster penetrating oil and a little more muscle not to much!! Nut might be a tad bit rusted in place. Good Luck....

Hello. Yes the spiral cut-out saw can handle 3/4" oak. Clarke also states that it is compatable with Rotozip bits. I would suggest one of the more aggressive profile sabrecut bits.

Thank you and don't forget to rate us.

Hi, W/D here.
Check the brushes first. Demo's get pilfered for small items, and the brushes may have been 'misplaced'. If they're there, then trace your wiring through the switch.

Your speed controller has failed. You will need to get it replaced, brushes do not give, those symptoms.

Press in shaft lock button, use supplied open-end wrench to loosen collet--RH thread and remove bit by hand.

Hi again, I think you will be happy you opted for the warranty solution, I told you they stand behind their products, Thanks for sticking with it and I'm glad we could help Fixya!
