Hi, my 3 month old axt23tc has stopped working, alternate flashing lights when switched on. Does anyone know of a video/ simple tutorial on how to take apart to do a thorough clean/ maintenance, which wont void the warranty. FYI, I now how to take shute and bin off, its knowing which screws to undo I am not sure of.. Thanks in advance
Does it have a warranty? Can you get spare parts?
How does it handle palm fronds regards max
How do you sharpen the cutting blade as I cannot work out how to remove it from the machine, thanks Ross
Hi Ross, my one looks still in working condition since I got it. If I were you I would ask Bosch for recommendations.
I don't believe it's intended to be sharpened only adjusted against the cutting edge which is fully described in the operating manual it's design would mean it is self sharpening
If I remember correctly, you adjust the metal plates on the outside of the rotating blades until they just touch the blades. That sharpens them and provides the correct tolerance.
I took a quick vid of adjusting the plates. external link
i want to know how to pull AXT23TC power cable from tmachine to plug power switch?
It has a short cord which is permanently attached to the machine. You need a long extension cord to connect from the machine to the wall power outlet.
Does this mulch palm prongs and small scrub stems?
Yes. Does not like green bushy stuff. Will eat any dry hard stuff you care to put into it. HOWEVER I would not buy another Bosch product ever! When mine stopped working it turned out to be the mother board. No local (North Queensland) dealers had one. I contacted Bosch in Melbourne and spoke to an unpleasant woman who was keen to be part of the problem rather than part of the solution. She told me my 3 year old machine was not in warranty and I would have to fix it myself. When I explained that I was not looking for warranty just the name of a dealer who might have the part I needed she told me that I would have to ring each dealer 'till I found one. I rang a dealer who went out of his way to be helpful. He checked and there were none available in Australia. Further the wait could be up to 6 weeks. The part I required cost about $160.00 from memory this is 20% of new price! At this point I gave up and purchased an Ozito with a 3 year replacement warranty. I will never purchase another Bosch product as long as I live. $800 down the drain, $266 per annum to keep a small suburban block tidy.
PS The Ozito cutter is the same design as the Bosch. It does not like soft stuff either but works well on hard stuff. Neither works well on palm fronds bu will eat all the prongs and scrub stems you want to feed them.
