How to Fix a Black and Decker Alligator Chain Saw

Описание: Best Prices USA here: http://amzn.to/28Sw2dq or UK here: http://amzn.to/28RNxfv

In this video I dismantle the black and decker alligator to find out why the chain doesn't rotate even though the motor works. Then fix it by drilling and pinning the drive shaft to the the drive gear. A weak spot in the design it seems. If you have a problem with your alligator, see this video for how to dismantle it, and if you have the same problem here is how to fix it.

You will need some good 2 or 3 mm cobalt drill bits (eBay) and a set of different screw driver bits covering hex, T series star type and the same T type but with center hole, plus a posidrive screwdriver.

It's a very handy electric chainsaw, but has a few areas that can be improved upon in the design. Take note Black and Decker.

Update 4th Nov 15: The halfords roll pin turned out to be not quite strong enough. It worked for a while but then snapped. I had to change the roll pin for a solid bolt, so back working once more.
