Timberwolf Feed Roller Issues

[Bretonboy]

Working away yesterday when the Feed rollers stopped working on the feed only, reverse was working just fine. Now the hydrollic level was down:blushing:, now topped back up and problem persists. Any ideas???

Moving one way and not the other sounds like a valve problem

 

First place to check is the range of motion on the valve spool and its control linkages.

Sounds more like an electrica; issue. Try posting this thread on the dedicated Timberwolf maintanence thread, they will respond to your query directly.

either the small relay that fits on the back of the green button (assuming it's the same as mine) or possibly the switch on the stop bar. Check the latter by discinnecting the plug under the hopper and shorting it with a piece of wire. Mine played up a few weeks ago but only needed the switch cleaning out.

check for broken wire inside stop and go box on hopper

Thanks for the reply's, they will give me a starter for ten.

take out the relays in the black box in the engine compartement, sometimes the vibration renders the contacts iffy, press them down and wiggle them (whilst running the motor) if it works suddenly you have your problem

i had a similar fault and was just 1 of the relays on the side or the roller box cover.

Well at this point I thinks its the relay behind the Green go button, opened it up and changed it out for the reverse relay. Disconnected both and plugged the go button into the reverse button Rollers worked. Now where to source the relay, spent the afternoon trying local avenues without success and Timberwolf though very helpful would like me to use the French agent. Experience has taught me that in all likelihood that this will be a complete waste of time esp as it a major bank holiday here this weekend. Who would you ring for this part in the UK???
