warranty on the tool.įirst couldn’t find a battery, tried several times nothing. Okay no problem I have my receipt and my 3yr no hassle warranty on the battery not the 5 yr.
I had bought 12 in trimmer in 7/2014, worked great until the battery died. I just go the same if not exact run around. So my question is this – if you have ever had to take advantage of Kobalt’s hand tool warranty, what was your experience like? It’s hard to say, as Kobalt doesn’t really have fine print terms and conditions anywhere that I can find.īut warranty eligibility is not the point. From MagnumForce’s complaint, it doesn’t seem like the cause of the breakage was an issue it seems that he would have had the same experience at the customer service counter if he had instead discovered a manufacturing fault in the bit socket. I don’t know if this would have been eligible for warranty replacement, but it might apply for satisfaction guarantee replacement. After a half hour, a runaround, and requests for his debit card, he gave up and went home. In a nutshell, MagnumForce, the thread starter, broke off the ball end of a hex bit socket and tried to get it replaced by Lowes. *** Adding a tsp of Marvel Mystery oil to the tank will finish cleaning the lines and ports.I love the stuff Works better than most, and it's the best deal in fuel system cleaners.With some free time yesterday, I browsed around the Garage Journal forum, where I found a post describing a rather frustrating Kobalt tools and Lowes warranty replacement incident. Once it warms up, shut it off so that you can clean and replace the air filter and button it down. Second possibility: The problem could just as well be a lack of air as fuel.pull the air filter cover and filter, but replace the bolt a few threads to keep it in place.Īfter cleaning the tank filter, and refilling the tank, add a few drops (about a teaspoon) of gas into the throat and give it a pull or two. ** The inner line is a bit short, and will disappear back inside after removing the filter (and it's a pain to get back), so pinch or loose-wrap the wire onto the line to keep it outside until you're ready to replace the filter. * Don't smoke! An empty tank is just as explosive, if not more so, as a full one. Make a small hook on the end of a piece of wire ( 8" of coat hanger) and reach into the empty tank to gently pull the filter to the fuel port for removal and cleaning. SOURCE: My weed eater 500 series mower is not getting gas.įirst possibility: The in-tank filter may be clogged.The fuel line running into the tank ends at a small canister bulb, basically a cage made of screens to filter debris that builds up in every tank.as the filter clogs, only manually pumping the fuel with draw enough to feed the engine.
