The Renovator Twist-a-Saw Questions & Answers
Verified
Had a twister saw for about 18months, hardly used. Went to use it recently and it spins for about 2-3 seconds then shuts off. Then the lights start flashing red and green. Is it totally broken?
Replace the resistance with a 390 Ohm one, and scratch away the glue from the electric parts. Mine had a same issue, I did what i wrote and works fine.
where can i get spares from for twist-a-saw
Hi Have same problem as the twist-a-saw starts to run gets to speed then shuts down and light starts to flash . Is it control board problem ? Where can i get the part i need . Thanks Mario
Good afternoon. I require a set of collets for my "Twist-a-saw" as only one is still usable. The machine has had very little use so the loss is very disappointing. The product was purchased from "TV Shop" here in New Zealand. Can you please supply price and availability or a matching product.

hi I need two new collets for my twist-a-saw how do i order them
Yep me to, have you had any luck in getting the collets, I've even asked around to see if I can get some manufactured, no luck as of 23rd Jan 2024, Anyway hope you get lucky,
And I'm from the UK, so I may BE TOTALLY UGGERED,
no joy have given up
Largest Collet broke on mine after 1 use, yep, 1 use, no replacement parts anywhere.. Its not my first time using a power tool so I'm careful and they just seem too cheaply made to last. Very disappointing! Bought off ebay.
I just went to use my twist a saw for the first time and it spins for about 2 seconds then shuts off. I purchased it through the tv commercial here in South Australia about a year ago and hadn't been able to use it due to health issues hence why it's only just been tried for the first time. Iam going to say that there must be a fault with the overload switch because it starts fine at any rpm selected and sounds fine then shuts off. I watched the instructional video on you tube which didn't help me then read the comments and seen a few people have had the same issue but no resolution answers to solve the problem. Is there a replacement control board to fix this problem that's offered ? And I am a electrician so fitting the new board is no problem I just need the part so look forward to hearing back from you soon cheers

Did the tvshop team ever provide the parts you needed? Some Reviewers who needed replacement parts were contacted by tvshop customer service. They offered to “look for parts”. Wondered how helpful “customer service” ultimately was.
No never,and did not even tell me where I can get any parts,it so frustrating

Hi, I have used my Twist-a-saw a few times but the collets have broken so I am not able to use it . I have not been able to get replacement ones.
My unit is always shutting down (similar to an overload condition) when in fact im just holding it. Then when i turned Off the switch and turn it On again, it just repeats shutting down.. Please help me.out..

I bought the Twist a Saw around Christmas last year. Today I wanted to use the fexible rotary tool attachment but there was no suitable sized collet for attaching the shaft tail to the motor's spindle. Where can I get that?
You can't. No replacement parts like this are available
which company makes this tool?
