Within reason.. Designed in house , steel is laser cut , folded and welded and finally powder coated. Obviously various components are brought in such as engines and hydraulic valves and motors.
-
No , the GreenMech chippers are all completely manufactured at Alcester in the UK.
-
Nice one , thanks for the feedback..
-
I do...... Flue thermometer.
-
Interesting, I hope it actually comes to something..
-
Stu , I'm on holiday this week but as suggested above , have you emailed GreenMech with that info ? Jase....

From memory , the end cap is less than £30 and I doubt the detent is much more.. Jase.
-
Is that a 'bib' valve ? If so the control valve end cap (the part with the lever and alloy housing) is readily available as is the detent on the other end of the spool.. Jase.

It was shocking....
-
Look through it , or push/pull something through it ?

Have you bypassed the top motor ? Those were my thoughts regarding a bent shaft , hence why I ask if you've tried bypassing it ? I would also try bypassing the cooler before replacing the control valve. I think if the pump was knackered you'd just suffer with poor oil flow and not get the heat build up. Jase.
-
Just a thought , although you've fitted a different top motor and you tell me that roller turns freely , have you tried bypassing it by joining the hoses ? Jase.

Hi Gerbutt, The shaft seal isn't a common failure but not unheard of and not unexpected on a nine year old chipper like yours. You could also try bypassing the oil cooler but I've not known one to fail internally. Following our phone conversation last week I still maintain the problem is most likely due to the control valve causing a restriction and resulting in heat build up. Why not order the new valve and If it doesn't cure the problem we'll see what we can do ? Alternately you could remove each pressure hose to check for a delamination. Jase.

Is it revving up to max by the sound of the engine but just displaying low rpm ? Or is the engine not revving ? P.S sorry , I've only just noticed this too..
-
Can't it be straightened ? When GreenMech produced the 'Multitask' we had one out on hire and the rotor shaft got bent a number of times as a result of hitting concrete, man hole covers etc. It ran the "Sepi' head and it was a case of stripping the shaft out and straightening it using the gas on strategic points. It would then go to Joe Turner for balancing.
-
Mitch, why not call into your local dealer and get them to check it ? It's only a quick job to test the pressures.. Jase.
-
By ‘black box’ I assume you mean the coil ? These do get hot ! I checked one once and it was around 100 degrees c with a digital thermometer..
-
Try Joe Turner? https://www.joeturnerequipment.co.uk/

Bill , does it have an EHB ignition box fitted ? That's the black ignition box with the ignition switch built into the box and idle , set and run buttons ? It sounds like it might need re-programming. That's a simple job over the phone and we can send you the setting info should you need to do it again in the future.. Give us a call on 01789400044.. Jase.
-
Bill , do the revs on the display remain fairly constant at any given throttle position ? If so I would say the sensor is ok. The sensor gap should be 1.0 to 1.5mm . Jase.
-
Ok I've just checked this and it was originally painted in RAL 5017 so I can only assume the new paint doesn't match due to the fact that the original paint has faded ? Jase.
-
Hi Bill From memory they ran at 2400-2450 rpm , which is actually flywheel rpm. I cant see from your pictures if the arm is actually touching the set screw at full throttle ? If it is then I would be checking the air cleaner and fuel filter.. Jaws.
-
I haven't been involved up until now but I'll happily have a look at the master records if you let me know the aerial number. If you'd rather call me then it's: 01789400044 and the option for 'service'. Jase.

Is that an ex Acorn machine ?
