- Iv said it once I'll say it again.
The Bosch GSH11E is one of the reliable and longest lasting demolition hammers you can buy.
25 years old amd still running strong. Like all tools, the old designs are always more reliable.
But unlike a lot of older tools, the Bosch GSH 11 E is still sold today and is one of Boschs best machines on the market.

![Why Did They Stop Making These? [Restoration]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/gh0SV8aPnMU/mqdefault.jpg)
My brother had one of these stored in the basement, which drowned during the Ahrtal flooding. It stayed under 3 ft of water until recovered. The pneumatic part is grease and therefore also water right. Electronics are also sealed. So I dismantled the motor, dried all parts cleaned rust stains, greased it and put it back together. Absolutely worth it.
Funny… As I’m glued to this screen watching you open the full service box I felt the presence of my better half looming over my shoulder then she asks “whatcha watchin?” Then before I could finish saying “Deans tearing down and servicing a well worked Bosch” she sees you crumple up and toss the breakdown schematic and says “pfffft, typical guy, he doesn’t need any instructions!” I just about spit out my coffee laughing. She’s right though, I think we ALL do that regardless of if we’re familiar with whatever it is or not! You’ve got quite the skill set brother, thanks for taking us along, I’ve learned so much watching you work your magic over the years! 👍🏼👍🏼
I’ve got two on the bench myself for today, a humming angle grinder and a dead 1/4” impact… Wish me luck!😉
You don't need luck, you can handle them.
congrats on 100K Dean - love your channel.
Thanks so much!
You are a honest man. Love your accent. Watching you from Jamaica. God bless you.
I am watching from Serbia 👋
Bro it's crazy how you know these machines so well that you can just rip them apart and put them back together again like it's nothing
What I’m going to be doing is watch at auction and farm sales for these tools being disposed of.
The big issue used to be finding schematics and access to parts. Because I don’t live in a city with good service centres we used to have to ship tools out, or pay “whatever” price someone would ask to take a stab at servicing.
We used to be at the mercy of the local parts supply counter to locate parts, and it was hit and miss and expensive.
WWW provides access to manufacturers sites, schematics , part #’s, and distributors and online ordering.
Really good videos, well filmed and expert instructions. I think it’s fantastic , that it’s cost effective to revive tools.
I really dislike using inferior, disposable things, simply Becuase they are inexpensive. I often end up buying better tools after having wasted time with the disposable stuff.
Well worth repairing. My grandfather was a tailor from Belfast and always said if it’s worth wearing it’s worth repairing . We always had nice stuff.
Buy quality and repair. There's also the eco argument.
I'm an ex joiner with a number of old (20 yrs +) Bosch Blue tools. Sadly I don't have the knowledge to service / repair.
❤for your channel.
The thing i appreciate about your videos is it brings out the appreciation for quality in people
Another crackin video Dean, your videos are addictive 😂, great watch
Glad you like them!
The best part is the wash and cleaning part so satisfying to watch parts being removed of all those gunky stuff
I was lucky enough to buy a hardly used 2001 model on eBay for £75 when it arrived It looked brand new. Still going strong 10 years later. Great tools.
Grease is the word. Well done on 100k subs.
Congrats 100k🎉 silver plate will arrive soon 😊😊 learned a lot from your videos, thanks for passing the knowledge 🤟💪
Congratulations on the 100k! Well deserved!
Thank you very much!
The collar with a spiral thread for shedding oil is called a labyrinth seal. They used to be very common and in machines 1960s and older they often are the only seal.
Really good video. I wonder how many good machines you have saved from the scrap bin with this video. Over time this video is going to help hundreds maybe more. Professionals purchase good machines, and service them. As a DIYer I’ve always had to do simple repairs myself which can be difficult, but today’s world access to schematics and RUclips makes it much more feasible for many.
I’ve always disliked purchasing new tools when the current tool was good.
It makes me feel good when I can use (maybe abuse), a power tool for years and then clean it up, rejuvenate some parts, and off we go again. You do a good job detailing a complete rebuild, and all the steps involved. I have no doubt I would attempt this job, but would allow for significantly more time as it looks like you could do this with your eyes closed. I love watching someone who is really good at something.
I love my 2 26 and can only imagine how much more this one can do. Sturdy machines for sure.
Well deserved Dean on the 100! Here’s to the next. You got me going over all my well used power tools and even buying in spare brushes and checking them all with a bit more confidence! Thank you again. Sincerely. 👍
100K an achievement you can be proud of. I love watching you work. Thanks for sharing with us and here's to your next milestone, your first Million.
Great machines, its smaller brother the GSH5 is equally robust.
I don’t need one of these, but if I see one, I would consider grabbing it now.
Impressive work and congrat for the 100k, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and always be good to repair high-end tools, inexpensive brands are usually disposable and not worth repairing
Thank you very much!
Congrats on 100k!
35:00 "I am tired, boss"
Absolutely love your channel Dean. It’s very relaxing and therapeutic. Your skills are first rate. Love the accent too.
Congrats on the century m8, give us a tour of your hardware store, and explanation on how you got into all you do
Hello, I'm from Portugal and I've been following you since the beginning, learning a lot from your videos. I also have the bosch Gsh 11 E. I would love to see you repair a gsh 11 you
Nice job. Amazing to see all them parts come out. Then go back I. So fast nice job Dean.
Great video ,so educative and thorough
100K subscribers. Keep up the excellent work to educate us. Thank you!
Pedantic: The part you refer to as "Field" is called the stator (from static) and the part that rotates is the rotor. Strictly speaking the alternating magnetic field is what makes the rotor rotate and can be generated by both the stator and the rotor, where one of them can have a static magnetic field but at least one of them has to alternate for the rotor to move.
Absolutely love your job
Congrats on the 100,000 subs. Love to watch your vids
Glad you like them! And thanks
Well done on the 100k subs.Well deserved.
Bought a Bosch hammer drill heavy duty a pleasure to use and own
Excellent job Sir, keep up the great work!!!!!
Congrats on 100 thousand subscribers well deserved Thanks
Thank you very much!
Blooody love this channel although im never going to have to fix any power tools unless one of mine goes bad but i doubt as they do very little work and are kept in good condition i still love watching you take the tools apart and put back together as i alway loved taking stuff to bits myself. Keep the content coming.
I would fixup the big expensive stuff but most proberbly throw out the stuff that would cost more to fix than replace.
Well done Dean 👍💯
Congratulations Dean on 100k!
I have that age Bosch , used to drive 100's of chainlink posts.
Thanks 👍
Well done on reaching 100k subs Dean, keep her lit brother rabbit.
Thanks! Will do!
In answer to your question, (as a diy enthusiast) if I ever had a tool fail it probably wouldn’t be worth repairing I only get the cheap stuff, Worx Ryobi and the like. What you do is an invaluable service to the trade, as the tools are their livelihood bringing in the bucks. I stumbled across some of your videos a few months ago and find myself totally absorbed in how you repair these machines. Keep up the good work sir.
Congrats on the milestone mate 100k
Fantastic video as usual 👍
I used to use this Bosch hammer when I worked on site. For the abuse they take every day on site they are very hard wearing. 👍🏻nice video as usual mate.
Great work lad keep dem comin
Congratulations on the 100k, Dean!🎉🎊🎆👍
I know you work primarily on professional machines and you recommend Makita and Bosch. I'm not a pro, but am interested in DIY. What brands would you recommend for a DIYer on a budget?
To answer your question though, if I was a pro and it was a fairly simple job I'd have a go myself after watching these videos. For anything more complex I would definitely get it looked at by someone like you before buying a new machine. Even paying the top quote of £300+ to get it back like new is better than paying more than double for a machine that probably isn't as well built as the "old" ones!😀
The sound at 1:10:35 so nice.
Amazing❤❤❤
Nice jobs again and gratz on the 100K!
As for the 300 Euro repair I'd say in this case get a new one since these are still for sale and that one would get you another 20 years of happy hammering, bearing in mind that the electrical parts (speed controller/field/armature) also have made their significant hours of labour, so chances are one of those might break down in the (near) future.
We build decks in Canada... the majority of our daily tools are Bosch... rarely do they even need repairs. I don't know anyone else using them!
I agrre with you its always been better to buy a good brand and repair when necessary. I repair every tool i have when i can becuase its cost so much less.when i need something new i go with used and or broken to repair.
That 100k subscribers plaque is going to be great for testing the hammer drills on.
Top man👍
Nice one
nice Job
I like the way you threw the diagram away.
I'd enlarge it and have it taped to the wall in front of me!
Respect !I hope to see power for all tools series serviced(uneo max ,universal hammer drill 18v etc.
Would love to see a 1 to 1 comparison with a Hilti.
In my experience (working at a large electrical general contractor) Hilti machines are equal to Bosch or Makita in terms of robustness, reliability and longevity.
Now, Hilti may have longer lasting gearboxes, hammer mechanisms and probably higher grade battery packs but I dont think their machines are worth the premium.
Personally I hate Hilti vacuum cleaners they are crap, too bulky too heavy and they break all the time just had to work with one that had a cable fault and broken latches that was fun...
Also due to them not being round and having pretty large rollers the dust bucket is a absolute pig to empty out.
Hilti is not what they use to be. They are basicly a hire company now. Because of this they no longer need to make quality tools, as they keep fixing and replacing thier own tools.
And they now fail a lot, never buy a hilti tool outright. They are a rip off.
Plus hilti hammers have the red service light con job.
They have a built in timer, when they run for so many 100 hours, the red light comes on and they stop working. The machine will not run again until it is sent to hilti to reset the light.
They call it a service light, but once it comes on, you have to pay hilti to reset it regardless if the tool needs a service or not.
Hi Dean, where is the best place to order Bosch parts? For their professional tools. Thanks
100K subscribers.
Nice one.
I always think you can't go wrong with most of the bosch and makita demolition hammers. I've been seeing them on sites for the last 30 years. They are good value industrial machines when you take into account the decades of use you can get out of them and the availability / price of spares.
I used to see a lot of Atlas Copco on sites, but not so much now. Do you get any of this brand in Ireland Dean ?
I had one of these until someone decided they wanted the contents of my lock up! But yes very good
Tansk you
👏👏
I'm surprised to see a nylon piston and rod in such an expensive machine. There must be some advantage to it over steel. Weight or flexibility perhaps. Great video.
Its actually stronger. It has a higher tensile strength, but even better is it dose not fatigue as much. So a reinforced plastic piston and striker rarely fail
@@deandohertygreaser Interesting. Thanks.
Qué tipo de grasa usas para el ensamble y la lubricación?
100 thou..👏👏👍
Hei Dean, love your vids, can you please recommend a good model of a jigsaw on makita platform? Thanks
Estimado Dean, le pregunto:
Todas las piezas pequeñas de las herramientas que repara, sería conveniente ponerlas en una bandeja para que no se desparramen o caigan de la mesa y así trabajar más cómodo y sin riesgos?
Hago la pregunta porque sigo su canal y admiro su trabajo👍
Mr.Doherty, any chance you could do a video on the top 5 most well built vintage power tools (in your opinion) ? Thanks
hey dean question for you, that tool that you used to replace the bottom armature bearing. Is that just the threaded ring just tapped to thread in a screw to push the armature out, or is that an actuall bosch tool? thanks
what type of grease do you use with your syringe please ? what NLGI grade ? Thank you
What magic is that material in the broken yellow container you test the drill/hammers on? It appears indestructible! :)
You dont have gloves? 😂 keep up mage work! Very relaxing intresting video!
whats the best way to dry all the kerosene off? air hose?
I don’t know why,..but after watching you repair these tools,l had an overwhelming craving for banana custard,..Weird.
I could be wrong but I feel like using the brown grease on the needle bearings might not be a good idea. The eccentric gear crankshaft part was thin and so was the wrist pin. Going to be a lot of play.
“The grease, the glorious grease !”
But when did it become yellow versus the off-white and / or tan we usually see in the syringe applicator ? Different product ? Thank you.
220 euros is a no brainer vs 700 especially with everything you changed and all the work
The second hammer was Dean's ship of Theseus. Give it another decade and a few more visits - the only part left from the time of manufacturing will be the serial number sticker.
Or triggers broom 🤣
Why is there a difference between the grease in the big tubes and those little tubes?
I always buy the bigger ones and its a different colour and seems much more tacky.
That second one looks like it ate a lot more concrete dust than the first one since it's last service.
100k special episode when?
Don't think the 250 is too much for that much work and parts
Hi Dean. Have you thought of a big pair of rubber gloves for parts washing because that kerosene is going to dissolve the oil in your skin and dermatitis when you retire would be awful to live with.
Thanks for the heads up. I actually do use gloves. I just don't wear them when filming the videos as it's difficult to work the touch screen with them.
I use my nose on touch screens when I'm wearing gloves
Factoid: That Bosch grease is EXACTLY the same formula/composition as margarine, "I cannot believe they sell it as butter," Clover etc etc etc. The only slight difference is the Bosch butter is actually food grade. Tell 'em, Dean!!!!
Regular Bosc bull dog#1 . Try to redrill a small hole larger.
And you will know why.
service kit comes with fitting diagram, so get rid of that right away😂😂
loved that part. your videos are awesome, thank you so much, greetings from the Netherlands.
What do you think about hilti hammers?
Unless they are for industrial use and you plan to replace them every few years, I would not recommend them.
I find hilti hammers a con job for the normal trades man.
and the older ones like the TE72? @@deandohertygreaser
I haven’t got your trough for washing out grease - could I ask my wife to use the dishwasher indoors ? 😳
Could you use a large ultrasonic cleaner with kerosene for the cleaning
Thanks! You give so much info in your videos. Love watching them. Have a drink on me.
That second machine even with all those repairs probably didnt cost the price of a new second machine
How could that cork screw seal have come off?
It is sitting on the shaft.
Only way for it to fall off is when someone had the armature out. Then it is not the machine's fault but the repairman's.
First one here!
I'll have to disagree. The Hilti TE72. The most reliable breaker ever made that you can no longer buy.
i found on in the scrap and did a full overhaul.
My boyfriend loves that kango it rattle him hard when every time it shake the fillings in his mouth when he sits on it
Hilti .
If you aint tossing parts around; I'm not watching your videos. ;-)
