Why will the engine not start?
 | The treadle may not be in the neutral position. The PTO switch
may be turned on. The engine may be cold and not choking
properly - please refer to the engine manual to determine how to use
the choke properly. The key switch may be bad- power should go
through the battery to the key switch. The battery could be dead
or the machine could be out of fuel- check fuel level and check
battery with a tester or charger. |
Why will the machine not tram?
| The treadle and cable may not be stroking the tram pump- Look at the
treadle or tram pump while someone moves the treadle in both
directions. The tow valve may be open- the tow valve should be
closed. Please refer to the diagram in the machine's parts
manual. The suction filter may be stopped up or collapsed.
The tram pump may be bad- refer to the owner's manual to learn to
check pressure on the tram pump. If all other parts are
functioning properly, the wheel motors may be bad. |
Why will the PTO not work?
| The hoses that attach to the attachment may not be coupled.
The PTO switch may be bad. The relief valve may have trash in
it. The PTO pump or joy couplers could be bad. |
Why is the machine tramming sluggish?
| The lever on the tram pump may not be moving full travel, the tow
valve should be closed, the hydraulic filter may need replaced and the
wheel motors could be bypassing. |
What could be causing my machine to
overheat?
| The engine's oil cooler may be stopped up, the cooler fan may be
using the treadle improperly, the operator may be lugging the machine
with the throttle. |
Why is the machine still moving when the
treadle is in the neutral position?
| The lever on the pump is out of adjustment or the neutral creep
feature needs to be adjusted. Please refer to the neutral creep
adjustment in parts manual. |
Why is the brake not working?
| Check the brake pins to make sure they are not stuck and also check
the cables on the brake to make sure they are not loose. |
How often should the hydraulic filter be
replaced?
| Every 50 hours. |
Why is there hydraulic oil leaking
around the fill cap?
| There is too much oil in the tank. |
Why are the bearings failing on the mower deck?
| The bearings may not be greased properly- they must be greased at
least every 8 hours, or you may not be using the right type of grease-
a high-temperature, high-speed grease is recommended. Also check
the belt on the mower to be sure it is tensioned properly. |
