Chapter 11 – Troubleshooting

The troubleshooting chart may be used to locate and

eliminate situations where machine operation may be

interrupted. If the problem cannot be corrected with the

action listed, stow the machine and remove it from ser-

vice. Repairs must be made by qualified maintenance

personnel.

Troubleshooting Chart

Symptom

Engine will not start from lower or

upper controls.

Possible Cause

Out of fuel. The engine will crank,

but will not start.

Engine is cold.

High engine temperature.

Low oil pressure.

Dual fuel machines. The fuel switch

on the lower control panel is set in-

correctly. The engine cranks but will

not start.

Corrective Action

Add correct type of fuel. Try starting

the engine for 20 seconds and then

let the starter motor cool for 60 sec-

onds. Repeat as necessary.

Cummins or Ford engine – plug the

block heater into a 125 Volt AC, 600

watt source eight hours before start-

ing the engine.

Deutz engine – hold the manifold

heater switch on for about a minute

before starting the engine. Hold the

switch on until the engine starts.

Let engine cool. Do not restart the

engine until the cause of overheat-

ing has been corrected.

Do not try to start the engine until

the cause of low oil pressure has

been corrected. The engine can be

restarted with low oil pressure, but

it will only run a few seconds before

it shuts off again.

• Place the fuel switch on the

lower control panel in the proper

position for the fuel being used.

• Make certain there is fuel in the

fuel tank.

• If using LPG make certain that

the fuel shutoff valve is open.
