Hi Jamie, If you remove the cassette assembly you should see the hole for the spindle bolt to push through which will then allow you to remove the 12mm eye bolt. Just make a note of where the washers are fitted.. Jase.

Hello... The cassette needs removing and then you will see the hole for the bolt to pass through.. Jase..

Easy enough to test , park on a slope and stop the engine , waggle the tracking levers to relieve any pressure and see what happens ? If it moves then it can only be the internal brakes as Pete has mentioned. They are held on by spring pressure and released by hydraulic pressure..

GreenMech torque is 28Nm on the torx head bolts or 32Nm on the Allen head bolts.. Jase.

Just thought I'd post this to show the maximum engine and flywheel speeds.. Jase.

Hi Richard , Thanks for the feedback..Nice one. Jase.

Hi Richard , the No-stress light should flash red with ignition on and override button pressed and then go solid red when movement is detected and finally a solid green when up to maximum revs. This can sometimes look like an Amber colour though.. Does the proximity switch light up when both cam lobes pass it ? You could try removing the back from the No-stress box and check to see the box is set correctly , there should be a list of machine settings in the box or stuck on the back of the lid. You could also try inputting a lower roller start speed by altering the dial in the box , if you then managed to get a green light at maximum rpm , it would suggest that maybe the engine isn't revving high enough ? From memory the engine should run at 2900rpm maximum but i can check this when I'm back in work tomorrow.. Feel free to give me a call on : 01789400044 Jase.

Also check , if it has a proximity switch that the switch isn't damaged at all on the face that picks up movement from the cam lobes ? This can happen if the flywheel bearings fail.. Jase.

Hi Richard , sorry I've only just noticed this post. Right , the two wires at the No-stress solenoid go on the two small contacts and it doesn't matter which way they are connected as it's just a coil. With the ignition on you should have a positive at the one wire as you say you have. The other wire is the earth and is supplied by the No-stress box but only when you have a green light on the box..... The red flashing light indicates that no speed is being detected and is the usual for when the ignition is switched on and the override button is pressed .. Normally then when the engine is running the light goes solid red and when the revs are increased it should go green. Check to see if there is a proximity (shaft speed) switch fitted in the aluminium pump mounting housing on the rear of the flywheel ? If it's there , check it's plugged into the back of the No-stress box ? If it is then you could try un plugging it and carefully try to open the male pins so they make a better contact when plugged in. There will be an led on the end of the proximity switch where the cable is and this should illuminate with the ignition on and the override button pressed when one of the cam lobes passes the end of the switch. The gap between the proximity switch and cam lobe should be 1.5-2mm.. If this all looks OK then I would try a new swich as it's a lot cheaper than a No-stress box. If you can't find a proximity switch then its either missing or it could possibly be one of a handful of eco's that were alternator sensing ? I hope this all makes sense and helps ? Jase.

Briggs ??

I take it you're a Forst man then doobin..??

Could you try removing one of the pumps carefully to check the plunger hasn't stuck ?

Are you getting power to the fuel solenoid ? You could check this by removing the ignition feed to the starter then go to the crank position for the engine and you should hear the fuel solenoid 'click' in ? You could try removing the fuel solenoid , put a rag in the hole to stop any dirt ingress/ oil coming out , do the same as above and when you go to crank you should see the pin on the solenoid pull in ? If this works it could be that the internal fuel rack has stuck ? If you put your finger in the hole where the fuel solenoid was fitted , you should be able to feel the end of the fuel rack , if you push it gently by hand it should return under spring pressure..? I have also heard of injectors sticking when stood for a prolonged period of time ? Jase.

Shaun , Did it work ? Jase.

Done..?

On it now..

Hi Shaun , No I've never heard of this before. I'm furloughed at the moment but if you email : [email protected] You should get a reply from Spencer as he is picking up emails and he handles warranty. Jase.

Stuart , this was simply a reference to the same failure that you experienced with your high pressure fuel pump , a Briggs engine fault..

News to me. I spoke with Stuart not so long ago and offered to send him the tool we've made to sort the issues he's having , simple enough job and takes probably an hour or so with minimal strip down but he elected to wait until he brings the chipper back to the UK. The chipper was certainly still being used then... Jase.

No it needs to be there , it keeps the shearbar pushed back firmly against the fabrication. Early 220 machines didn't have it and this could result in debris building up behind the shearbar overtime resulting in the blades touching the shearbar ! This was when it was introduced . Funnily enough it was on a Good Friday many years ago that this was first discovered when I had to go out to a 220 working on the M50 that had started making a tapping noise and that was the reason. Jase.

You may need to but its fiddly and you'd likely need three new gaskets. When they build the Arb 19-28 , one of the first parts to be fitted to the bare chassis is the exhaust as its the easiest time to get in there... the tricky part is where the exhaust flexi and silencer join and sandwich the chassis mounting bracket... Jase.

Cheers Wayne..? Just waiting for Ty's response after experiencing the same issue in France ??
