Panasonic Drill Driver jammed
I am hoping someone can help me get my Panasonic Drill Driver back on track.
I was driving big screws in the a thick hardwood board.
The Driver setting was screwed up to Max.
Eventually I did drive the screws in but the clutch setting have jammed.
The drill still works but it is stuck past the Max setting and I can move it.
Is there some way I can fix it or do I need to send it to a Doctor?Scally

Scally,
If you are tech minded , strip the front off the drill, .
Then have a look , can't see anything from outside , and I doubt that you will free the clutch system by forcing the control ring, .
I think that you have 2 choices , 1 strip the tool and see if you can free the control ring and clutch, or, take the tool to a repairer and have a professional fix it.

Thanks jeff
I don't mind pulling things to pieces so I will have a look and see how I go.
I was hoping someone might have pulled on apart and warned me what bits are likely to fly into space!
If it looks too tricky I will look for a Panasonic repairer.
cheersScally

Have you tried putting it in reverse and unscrew something tight? I guess you would have to be careful about how you hold the drill, you wouldn't want to injure a wrist.

Scally,
I don't think that anything in the gearbox is spring loaded.,but be careful, take your time and while you have it pulled down , if you can fix he problem, then put in some new grease.

I often dismantle things while holding them in a large, clear plastic bag if I think something might jump out

Take lots of photos as you go so that you remember where everything belongs
The other day I described to my daughter how to find something in the garage by saying "It's right near my big saw". A few minutes later she came back to ask: "Do you mean the black one, the green one, or the blue one?".

I usually do the photo thing and I like the plastic bag idea.
You would have Buckley's finding anything on my shed floor at the moment.
While the sun is shining I am outside chopping big mortice and tenons so I will procrastinate until it rains again.
Thanks for the tips guys.Scally

I sometimes use a bunch of small bags too, and put the pieces from each step in their own separate bag as I go. That way when you come to put it back together you have an idea of what order to reassamble, and which pieces belong together. Also means you don't get it nearly back together and then discover the small screw taht you forgot to do back in an early step which means you have to pull it all back apart again.
