Not good then I had one on a job today (2007 model) with the intension of buying it but the stress control never kicked in once, although it never seemed to struggle with much I did try a couple of lengths 4-5 inch in diameter and they slowed it down a fair bit causing it to nearly stop at one point.

Could it of been bypassed if so where could I look to check ?

It's a shame really has it was in great condition and only 500 hours

Test it, if the rollers turn while on Rickover then it's faulty, if not it's fine, chuck a 6" lump in and see if it works. My TW 150 VTR has done 1100 hours, looked after it, sharp blades and roller box kept greased and it's a beast

I did noticed the rollers were still turning when the revs were turned right down

I have always been led to believe that if they are turning on Rickover then it is an anti stress issue. You could contact Timberwolf Tech dept for assistance. They are very good.

Have a look at the 2 wires at the stress unit. Make sure they not connected one is brown and one black this will override the stress unit. So if the stress unit is working ok with two wires off at full rpm the rollers will be going fast drop the rpm they will stop. If the roller don't go fast at full rpm. Then connect the 2 wires and go to full rpm if The rollers work then check the relay,speed sensor, or it will be the stress unit. Note if the wires are connected the rollers will work but the stress won't hope this helps. Or call us at Arbrep Services ltd
