    IR P175B with Deutz engine

    Hey thanks! This did help some.

    IR P175B with Deutz engine

    An F3L912 doesn’t have glow plugs. I would need to check the intake heater to be sure but it really isn’t necessary for starting in the shop or at summer temperatures when this started acting up. The injection pump throttle lever is spring held to full throttle on starting on this unit. Now, I...

    IR P175B with Deutz engine

    A screw compressor like this has an unloader valve that blocks the compressor intake. We took the valve all apart and found worn components, waiting on parts again. I wish that I had an air schematic for this thing, I can’t quite wrap my mind around how this valve works.

    IR P175B with Deutz engine

    I have an old IR compressor in the shop right now. It came here because it has an air cooled Deutz F3L912 that isn't starting right. It cranks a long time and smokes black but it won't quite catch. It seems that it is staring under load. We have checked out the engine, of course did all the easy...

    Vermeer 1250 Turbo hydraulic issues

    Just for the record I installed the gauge where it is to monitor main pressure relief. All of the rest of the system will fall under that. Directional reliefs and any other pressure you want to monitor. If the belt can not drive the pump to produce main relief pressure either the pressure is too...

    Vermeer 1250 Turbo hydraulic issues

    There is nothing wrong with the pump. It is fairly new, the customer was having issues with the feed rolls not feeding about 6 months ago. We are primarily an agricultural dealer here and were swamped keeping tractors in the field at that time. I told him we couldn't look at it for 2 weeks and...

    Vermeer 1250 Turbo hydraulic issues

    Here you are. When we changed the pulleys we matched sizing for what was there. This problem really seems strange as our customer had this unit for at least 4 years and had only changed the small belt once or twice. This problem started in the last 6 months and he burned off many small belts...

    Vermeer 1250 Turbo hydraulic issues

    We have an old Vermeer 1250 Turbo chipper that a customer brought us. It keeps burning the belts off of the hydraulic pump. I got our in house machine shop to make a new drive pulley for the crankshaft as Vermeer don't sell it anymore. While we were at it we upped it to a B belt instead of a 4L...

    Skyjack SJ45T won’t start

    The harness that was swapped is from the old engine along with all of its sensors. Basically, the difference between the 2 engines is : the original engine installed by Skyjack has a electronic rack actuator instead of a fuel shut off solenoid. To run that actuator it has an ECU, speed sensor...

    Willmar Wrangler 4550 help needed

    I don’t know if you found your answers but if you find the serial tag or number on the engine any Deutz engine dealer can find correct parts. I could get you the year or solenoid part number. It is likely either a F?L2011 or a D2011 Deutz engine.

    Skyjack SJ45T won’t start

    Hi, I have a Skyjack SJ45T s/n 980024 in the shop. It’s driving us crazy. It has a Deutz 2011 engine. The customer had it out on rent and the operators ran it out of oil and toasted the engine. He found another rebuilt 2011 engine that is a newer version but technically the same. A shop swapped...

    T190 Issue has everyone scratching there head

    If you have auxiliaries getting turned on while operating it could act just like that. I have seen it happen on a lot of different equipment.

    JLG 660SJ throttle hunting when cold

    It’s fixed !! Replaced the ECM.

    JLG 660SJ throttle hunting when cold

    So it seems like I have a bad ECM. This age of Deutz ECMs have a temp sensor built in. On this machine the ECM is not mounted real close to the engine. Long story short is when the ECM is warmed with a heat gun the engine runs fine . Waiting on the new ECM to come but I’m very sure it will...

    JLG 400S manlift

    Here in Canada the Ministry of Labour requires a safety inspection for aerial equipment and material handling equipment by a “competent person.” It doesn’t necessarily matter who worked on if it doesn’t have a current safety certificate it can be grounded and taken out of service by an MOL...
