Hello Mick,

 Our 150P did this.

With our 150P the kick back now won't occur until the hydro oil is warm so no putting in big lumps for the first few minutes.

It's a good feature that pulls lumps back from the flywheel so the revs mount faster but the box is a bit tempermental and needs fine adjusting.

Sharing and discussing these quirks is all part of happy GM ownership.

Ok, thanks Stu, it seemed to do it all day, so after the weekend I’ll try and find out about adjusting the box.

Appreciate your chiming in

Adjust it inside the white box. See if it makes a difference. I think it’s blue in colour and 0-9 on the potentiometer from memory.

Ok, thanks, I’ll open it up and have a look Sunday morning.

I’ll report back.

Was kind of hoping for a dial, but it all looks fixed.

That's the display Mick , you need to take the lid off the 'junction box 'which is next to the battery..

Thanks Jase, figured that out, found the blue dial, turned it down from the max.

off out the back to give it a go.

Well suck me dry and call me Dusty! It worked! I can only imagine the mechanic played with it when finding the other fault.

Thanks to all for your help.

I I can just improve the fork crushing power a bit we might have a chipper on out hands!

Happy days Mick,

 

See this is what I like from viewing on here about greenmech. There seems to be a good solid support and people to turn to. That's what convinced me to buy a safetrak a few months back.

 

Means a lot to have people there willing to help!

[Mick Dempsey]

Damn straight Chris!

Now if someone could help me find the key to my transit, that’d be great!

[Mick Dempsey]

Ha ha! Here it is, where I left it in the bonnet lock!
