Angle grinder repair - Makita LXT

How I stripped down and fixed a jammed Makita LXT angle grinder. You can see how to replace the brushes or permanent magnet should that be needed.

Nice!

Nice work, I wonder how many of these would end up in the bin for the same issue!

Many I suspect. I had a similar issue with the impact driver, turned out the magnet had cracked, got a new one for a few quid and was back in business again.
