My timberwolf 150 has recently been playing silly buggers.

Start up fine

Always leave it running for 10 mins

Once on full revs start the rollers

Chip couple of branches, then the whole chipper cuts out!

 

 

No fading out no warning.

 

Start her back up and it's fine, normally for the rest of the day.

Has a couple of times cut out later in the day.

 

Have checked oil and water. Both topped up. Radiator is cleaned out regularly with an airline.

In line fuel filter and main filter are clear.

 

Any ideas/diagnosis would be gratefully received.

Cheers

Had this once on a Jensen and it was just a lose battery terminal ...

Had a look in to that, wd40 and a watchful eye and all seems well.

Thinking maybe the oil pressure sensor.

Might disconnect it in tut morning and see what occurs.

Thanks White Noise, can you remember how much the oil pressure switch was? Well, was grinding all day so no time to unwire the oil pressure switch, grinding tomorrow to but worse come to worse I will have a project over Christmas.

 

If anyone else has anything to add or other things to check I am all ears!
