16.1.15
Kapitel/Chapter 8: Generator Failure - Seite/Page 153
Motor is not reaching the rated rpm.
Refer to "motor faults" section.
MOTOR DOES NOT TURN OVER WHEN STARTING
Cause
Solution
Battery main switch is switched off.
Check the position of the battery main switch, if neces-
sary switch on..
Battery voltage not sufficient.
Check that connection is firm and whether corrosion
has occurred..
Starting current fault.
The voltage of full batteries fall to a maximum of 11V.
The wiring is severed if the voltage does not drop. The
battery is discharged if the voltage drops further.
MOTOR TURNS OVER BUT DOES NOT START
Cause
Solution
Stop solenoid valve not opening.
Check wire connections and circuitry to solenoid valve.
(ref. DC wiring diagram: Relay K2, Fuse)
Fuel pump does not operate.
Check fuel-filter and pump: clean if necessary.
Lack of fuel.
Check fuel supply.
Glow-plugs not working correctly.
Check glow plugs and heating time.
Too much air in fuel lines.
Test fuel system for leakage. Bleed air from fuel system
(refer to section "Air-bleeding of the Fuel System").
Fuel filter blocked.
Replace fuel filter.
Low compression pressure.
See Kubota motor-manual.
MOTOR DOES NOT TURN OVER AT THE NORMAL SPEED DURING THE STARTING PRO-
CESS
Cause
Solution
Starter battery voltage insufficient.
Check battery.
Damaged bearing(s) piston (seized).
Repairs need to be carried out by Kubota-Service.
