Hi,
I have a Greenworks Corded Dethatcher model 27022. It is 6 years old so I'm out of warranty but I only use it once a year and I thought I would get more life out of it. I'm finding the thermal breaker keeps tripping as I use the machine and the motor is getting quite hot. I've taken off the cover to clean out any grass as well as ensure the wheels move freely. It lasts about 7-8 seconds on grass but if I lean it back and run it (through the air) it doesn't stop running (since there really isn't a load on it). Is there a way to try to get some more life out of it?
I'm using a 100 ft 12/3 gauge cord which according to the specs should not be a problem.
Thoughts? Thank you in advance for any help.
