    Snorkel TB50 no steering

    I’ve lost steering functions with the joystick, also platform basket will turn counter clockwise but not clockwise. Platform will not tilt up or down. If I apply the telescoping “IN”toggle at the same time as applying any of the non working functions they return and work normally! Seems like...

    TB 50 Snorkel control issues

    I have TB 50 Snorkel boom and I recently unloaded it and find the steering wasn’t working. The hydraulic fluid was a bit low so topped it off still no steering. Everything else seems to work as far as joysticks are concerned. Then I noticed that pushing the toggle in on the telescopic arm then...

    TB 50 Deutz 48hp 3cyl Diesel

    Thanks for all your help and suggestions! I really think it was the broken throttle/governor shaft that shut engine down not a fuel issue as I originally assumed. Once I detected the broken shaft which has tension on it and caused it to shut the fuel off. The unit shows 2499hrs, I don’t know the...

    TB 50 Deutz 48hp 3cyl Diesel

    Thanks for your help! I pushed air back thru to the tank, there is a air fitting on the tank neck so I pressurized the fuel tank with air, it runs! Yay! But the shaft with the roll pin coming out the side of the case is sheared off so that’s my next problem. I’m assuming the front end of the...

    TB 50 Deutz 48hp 3cyl Diesel

    Thanks for your suggestion, I’ll check it out, wasn’t aware of a screen and maybe check the pressure on the lift pump. I checked the fuel shutoff solenoid for power even removed it to visually verify and tried to start it with it out so that’s okay. I removed the lift pump it looks to visibly...

    TB 50 Deutz 48hp 3cyl Diesel

    Thanks for your help, I did fill the filter prior to installing. There is a air valve on the neck of the fuel tank that I pressurized in hopes it would help pressure up the system. I’m not sure how to throttle it up as it only has the electronic foot pedal that raises rpm for lifting and moving!

    TB 50 Deutz 48hp 3cyl Diesel

    I have a TB50 Snorkel lift, has always ran great. I fired it up yesterday to clean some windows and shut it off while cleaning I fired it back up to move and it started to sound like it was running out of fuel. I shut it off and checked fuel level, probably 5 gallons in tank. Decided to change...
