MOBILE CHIPPER MECHANIC

[ArbBart44]

Hey all we need a chipper mechanic if anyone knows anybody around Coventry area or if anyone can advise us what this symbol means as we’re  on site and can’t work. Cheers.

I'd say emergency stop, unless it does toast.

 

Maybe a make and model?

[ArbBart44]

All buttons are sound though and randomly cut out while chipping without button being hit, stop bar is green so it’s not that, it’s a forst st8D55 

[GarethM]

Probably quicker and easier to ring forst for support. 

 

If the engine is cutting out without being pressed I'd check the usual things like oil levels too.

Could it be a bonnet safety switch,

No clues from reading the ops manual? They started using the same Wurth unit as we do but configured differently. DTMI codes are stored in the root menu!

Apparently the forsts shake themselves apart , everything is sound just a wire has fell out or snapped connecting one of the stop buttons , nightmare, all buttons are working and terminals are working so there’s an issue with one of the wires that connect the two, great great chippers but not made for longevity apparently . Cheers all.
