Hi everyone. Both rollers stopped on site today. Swapped both relays. Checked connections and such. I have noticed that usually under running conditions that there are red leds from what could be an electrically controlled hydraulic unit. I'm assuming that because there is two of these that one is forward and one reverse. The LEDs now don't light up. The side stop bar switch used to click when pushed now it doesn't. Are the two linked or possibly separate issues. I'm no expert and got piles of brash on site 😡 Does anyone have any recommendations.

 

Thanks to anyone who replys.

If it's not electrics might be the hydrolic motor , or if the control box on top has got condensation in it we sometimes take it if and re do the terminals and spray in wd40

Hi not fixed yet. I took it in to be looked at last Wednesday they say they have ordered some parts for it. Sounds like they are swapping things to find out what it is. Not sure about that. It seems like it could be the bar switch as it doesn't click anymore like it used to and on the machine you have to initially press the bar in to engage the forward and reverse. Maybe that. I wasn't onsite when it all happened so just got one of the lads to take it in day after. Managed to loan a mates machine for Monday luckily after Monday it's all timber. Fingers crossed get it back next week and doesn't cost the earth. Thanks for your replies I will post what it was when fixed so it may help others that this happens to.

 

Cheers.
