Entec stopped feeding

Need advice. My old entec chipper with single feed roller (1999) stopped feeding today after about 3 hours of work (while working). The belt to the oil pump is working, driving and tight (it will reverse) . There is power to the stress control box and no wires seem to be loose including in the control box. There's also plenty of oil. Any ideas :confused1:

I've just had the same problem with my Camon, called Tracmaster and they said it's dirt in the spool valve so I stripped, cleaned and replaced the fluid. While I was doing this I noticed corroded connections in a see through box that connects to the solenoid, replaced it and it still went backwards only.

 

I called them again they said I'd have to leave it ticking over for twenty minutes in order to purge the air from the fluid before the roller would work both ways. They were right and now it works okay.

 

When was the fluid last changed?

Turned out the feed rollers would not go forward or back. Checked all the switches and they all working checked spool valve buy conecting stright to battery and they work backwards and forward. Checked conection between spool valve switch and control switch and they seem to be working. Was told today that they had problems with stress control when first made, am hoping not as it going to cost £300. Anyone have problems with this when they first came out or any other surgestions on what it could be
