Viking Hel 700 hedge trimmer motor intermittent start problem

by PeteJackson » Wed Jan 27, 2021 12:38 pm

Hi,
I have checked that power is getting to the windings, the motor is running free, the brushes are new and the motor starts at all points of rotation. However, the thing cuts out at different times (so not obviously overheating?) and then sometimes starts again if you hit it but sometimes not. Any advice would be gratefully recieved as the thing was quite expensive!
Regards,
Pete

Sounds like a broken cable or loose connection
