With ties I repaired a new Russian milling cutter from the Crimea. Didn't pass it back under warranty. Silly, but easier this way

  • Jul 31, 2021

As I began the construction of a country house with a bath, I had to "grow" with tools. If you imagine what I have now, there is a decent list.

To create grooves when reinforcing aerated concrete, I purchased a "Fiolent" wall cutter, which perfectly transforms into an ordinary grinder of 150 diameter. I wrote about her here.

After the expiration of the time, I will say this: Shtroborez - grinder turned out to be to my liking. I can safely recommend it.

Remembering my successful purchase, I decided to replenish the line of this manufacturer and buy a wood milling cutter into my not poor family of tools. The fact is that a decent amount of work with lumber is planned.

The choice fell on the device Fiolent MF3-1100e.

In its price category, with a margin of safety, it has no competitors (according to reviews). And as the first apparatus, it will be more than sufficient.

I ordered it online and to my surprise it came with "Marriage". At the point of issue, he did not open it, but took it home immediately.

Look at the details in your hand. The spring with a plug, which has a broken "TOOTH" of the hook, must be inside the device. Namely, this powerful spring is responsible for lifting the router from the platform without effort.

In the meantime, pay attention, the picture shows a PCB sole, which resists abrasion well. And I have it made of cheap plastic. If the article is read by manufacturers, then please decide which one to install, otherwise it is somehow unpleasant.

Thinking for a long time what to do, I decided to shove the spring into place. It was very hard for me. What's next? After all, the plug will shoot, from the pressure of the spring, the holding the tooth is then broken. Of course you can glue it, but I think that the glue will go away from the vibration over time. Therefore, I went the other way:

Screeds are our everything!

Scrolling through the gallery, you realized that in this way, I strengthened and insured against the release of the spring located under the cap. Let me remind you that the spring is powerful.

Why didn't I take it under warranty? There are reasons for this:

  • Laziness, - take it to the point of issue, fill out the paper, yes well it.
  • Time, there is no desire to waste your resource on this, the more you need a milling cutter here and now.
  • An additional opportunity to publicly show our, Russian, the only tool manufacturer about such a problem as product quality.

The first launch of the device did not reveal any problems, it is possible that something will come out during operation. And at the moment I like him.

All the best, dear reader. See you.
