3. The précis done for wolf tools here has got nothing to do with wolf electric tool company of the uk

   Somebody has partially copy and pasted British archive sites on the assumption that there is an association with the original company. There is zero relationship between this company producing cordless tools an the wolf electric tool company.

   In addition the copy and paste of the british industry and museum archives is incomplete - ultimately it’s irrelevant anyway but it doesn’t help. Further info can be yielded from wolf electric tool company threads in various machinery and woodworking forums such as Woodworking Australia’s Woodwork forums. Wolf had a strong presence in Australia as they were also locally manufactured

5. Six months go I bought a Wolf Professional 20v 3amp cordless drill and saw. It would now appear that original batteries for these tools are no longer available and resellers including Amazon have no idea whether they ever become available again.
   Impossible to find any contact details for the manufacture so I’m completely unable to find out what’s going on.
   Any help to resolve this issue would be appreciated.

6. I personally like wolves tools. I have a couple of their tools in my possession. the tools are reasonably priced and are of very good quality. I have used almost all the known brands for power tools over the year. And wolves are definitely not the worst ones. Although it is not the best either. I agree with a post that shows the con side of these tools. All the points are very true. This post is very informative and helpful. Thank you for sharing.

7. I still have my wolf sapphire drill (50yrs old) working perfectly, brushes in motor replaced aprox 5yrs ago! When I needed to replace my current cordless(focus , mckeller) . I was imediately interested when I saw wolf tools!
   Looked good online so I shopped around online to purchase one. They dont appear available on retail. (Now made in India) .
   It arrived prompt looked good ,felt ok, I was pleased with it. Although it felt like a toy whether it would last as well as my sapphire time would tell?
   Pleased with it I ordered a spare battery . 3months on (now) it has developed a wobble in chuck. Now told it is out of warrantee 2wks, tool now scrap! ☹️
   Beware if you are unlucky , there is really no back up or warrantee, this tool has had hardly any use it is still like brand new inbox , and unfortunately I have bought a spare battery for it. Noting the online shop is in Redditch (local to me)has not helped they just quote 2wks return . No documents ,warrantee when tool arrived.

8. I do like to work with WOLF's power tools.
   I own a power drill that I bought some 20 years ago still in 100% use and it help me move to new apartment for 4 times (I am doing it all alone with no outer service) and maintain what ever I need including when I build furniture as a hobby.
   I also have their Power hand Planer and Belt Sander (PD-75/900) which worked fine for the last 15 years until last month when the belt sander's driving belt was teared up and now I can't find any data or replacement for it (any help on this will be more then welcomed and appreciated)
   So my opinion and conclusion from my own experience is that WOLF's products are very good and high quality that built to last for many years especially for DIY world in a very affordable price

9. Hi Roger.....if you purchase a pair of 12V gel cells. of about 8 - 12 amp. hr rating, connected in series and duck taped together, along with a 6 or 8 M of awg # 12 or 10 wire cord you can get years of service from your cordless tools......on some of the tools I reused the existing battery end ........I have done this with 12, 14 & 18 volt tools .....the gel cells can be re-charged using an off the shelf automotive battery charger.....to switich 12 & 14 V tools I used only 1 gel cell and 2 for higher voltage.......contact me if I can offer any further advise on this ve3wgr@gmail.com........wayne

10. Thank you for the post, it is indeed very informative and I must say that I agree with every word.
    I own few of WOLF tools (Jig-Saw, Planer, Sander, Drill) for much more then 10 years and although they are not high-end power tools, they are long lasting, deliver what is expected to (as DIY person, I run around 4-5 wood projects a year) and work perfect with very good results and still running.
    I do agree that their support/spare parts is much fare from their tools performance. Recently the driving belt (timing) of the sander (PD-75/900) was broke and up until today I couldn't find a replacement one - I will appreciate any help/lead to it
