Sounds like the switch, mine used to do it so I changed the switch and it was sound. No doubt someone will say its coz Timberwolfs are crap and you should of got a greenmech😛

which switc,

[Hodge]

The green forward button on the control box, when you start the machine you have to press it to get the rollers turning, well you do on mine, 2008 150 VTR. If the switch is knackered then they won't start. You can get the switch of orange plant, next day delivery.you can test it by taking switch out and disconnecting the switch and putting a paper clip into the socket so it makes the circuit and the rollers should turn.

just had exactly the same problem repaired on my 150, it was the small forward reverse valve inside the engine compartment

[Martin B Doyle]

iv had a similar problem. only mine was the infeed not reverse. a new latching relay sorted it for me.

I reckon, try it and find out, I can't promise that's what's wrong but it was on mine mate. Or just go and buy a Greenmech or a Jensen🙈
