Greenmech CS100 battery issues (I think) 🤷‍♂️

[karlr608]

Hi!

 

I bought a used cs100 a couple of weeks ago, advertised as needing a new battery so I tested it with the pull cord and got it working. 

 

Since I've installed a new battery and it started fine but seemed to surge witch it didn't do before battery was fitted.

 

3 jobs into it's service it has started to die during jobs and it won't turn over with the key, we checked for debris in the feed and shoot - all good, removed the drum, all good, checked the belts, all good - then my groundie wired it up to his truck, I started the pull cord and we got it working again?? 

 

After a while we removed the jump cables and the key started the engine again?

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers

Hello 👋 

Do you posses a multimeter  ?

If so then I would suggest putting it across the battery with the engine running to see if the battery is charging  ?
