    HELP Starting Stump Grinder That’s Been Sitting 3 yrs. RAYCO 1642

    Google Deutz USA and find the dealer locator and enter your zip code. The servicing dealers will come up. You will need the motor number on top of the engine before calling them. The picture is too close for me to tell and I know they have upgraded to better lift pumps over the years. Hope...

    HELP Starting Stump Grinder That’s Been Sitting 3 yrs. RAYCO 1642

    If you don't see puffs of white smoke coming out of the exhaust while cranking it, it isn't getting fuel. You more than likely need a new lift pump. I would also suggest a new timing belt as well. If the belt has become dry rotted and it breaks at the wrong moment, the engine can blow. I...

    Wood/chuck chipper performance, size of chipped material?

    Hello, Your wood chips should never be 4-5 inches. They should be 1-2" size chips. You have some issues as I think your knives are dull. Another issue is that it sounds like the anvil/cutter bar is too far from your knives. From time to time, a branch will go through the machine and it...

    Bandit 90xp magnetic speed sensor

    You need to pull the sensor out and see if the flywheel ate it up. If so, you'll need a new one. The reason they're hard to find is that they're metric. I have one for $170.37. You can call me at the number below. Hope this helps! Dave Global Equipment Exporters 770-420-6400

    ISO Vermeer SC 130 Throttle Cable and Pillow Block Bearings.

    I carry Timken Blue Brute Forestry Bearings. Stay away from Rexnord/Linkbelt bearings as they've changed the seal in them and they will go bad quickly. We're having great success with the Timken's. I had a Carlton SP7015 that had 600 hours on the bearings. The Timken bearings are sealed...

    Chipper Clutch Problems....

    I might be able to help. I really need to know the name brand of the clutch. We're seeing many issues with NACD clutches. Does the pilot bearing mount into the flywheel or a pilot bearing carrier? Either way, it could be bad as well. I train people to bump the clutch handle in and out. You...

    Woodchuck chipper problems

    You might want to test the hood switch. I would unplug it and try to start it. Just to see if it works. If it doesn't start, then we know it works. If it's working, I would start the chipper and try shaking the switch to see if there's a bad contact. I would also put a volt meter on the...

    Woodchuck chipper problems

    If there's a hood/safety switch on the disc housing, I would check it as it might be losing contact which will shut it down. I'm curious, does it shut down while the engine is cold? If not, you might have low voltage, low oil level, or high temp. If it has a Murphy bypass switch, does it pop...

    90xp changing knives

    Our shop uses a painters tool to clean the knife seat and the back of the knives. If the knife is a bolt style, make sure to use anti-seize or grease on the threads. You never want to run them in dry. Hope this helps! Dave Global Equipment Exporters 770-420-6400

    cutter wheel alignment on a carlton 5014 stump grinder

    Hi Jim, You shouldn't have to remove the jack shaft bearings to drop the wheel. You can remove the bottom poly chain sprocket and belt and then drop the wheel. If the jack shaft bearings are what you're calling the top bearings. You would have to take off the bearing on the left side. It...

    2015 7015 TRX - engine belt - options

    Hi Jim, I have over 20 years of experience with belts and stump grinders. You don't want to use an all rubber belt as will continue to stretch while you're grinding. Also, there is clutching material called Aramin used on the inside of the belt. This is to keep the cutter wheel from turning...

    cutter wheel alignment on a carlton 5014 stump grinder

    The denatured alcohol is to pull the water out of it. I'm wondering if the bucket had condensation build up. Keep it in a room temp building if possible.

    cutter wheel alignment on a carlton 5014 stump grinder

    Jim, You can do one of two things. An old timer told me to put a quart of denatured alcohol in the hydraulic fluid. Do this before you do a big job as you want the hydraulic fluid to get hot. You could also drain all hoses and tank. When replacing the hydraulic fluid, don't start the...
