Why does the diesel engine stop in my BRODDSON Farm Equipment?
- S
  susan77Aug 7, 2025
  If the BRODDSON Farm Equipment's diesel engine stops, there might be several reasons. You may have no fuel in the fuel tank, so you should fill it. Another cause can be a clogged fuel filter, which requires changing the fuel filter. Also, the engine temperature might be too high, so fill water in the cooler mixed with anti-freezer fluid if needed. Finally, low oil pressure could be the problem, in that case add oil to the diesel engine.

  If no water comes from the sprinkler system of your BRODDSON Farm Equipment, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if the water spray nozzles are clogged and clean them if necessary. Also, check if the water tanks are empty and refill them. A clogged water filter could also be the culprit, so clean the filter insert. Lastly, the water pump might have failed, so check the pump and refurbish if needed.

What to do if the sweeping operation does not start on my BRODDSON Farm Equipment?

  Kimberly RobertsAug 18, 2025
  If the sweeping operation does not start in your BRODDSON Farm Equipment, the hydraulic oil might be too cold; let the oil warm up by running the diesel engine for a few minutes. The elevator could also be blocked by a foreign object; run the elevator and main brush in reverse. Check if the hydraulic oil level is too low and fill it if needed. There might be an electrical error, consult the electrical scheme. Also, check if the wash button is activated and deactivate it.

  If your BRODDSON Farm Equipment sweeper leaves stripes, reduce the sweeping width. You may also need to mount new parts, adjust the collector shoe, mount a new elevator rubber, change the infeed rubber or adjust its height, or replace the bushings in the collector shoe arm.

Why does the side brush on my BRODDSON Farm Equipment throw sand back against the curb stone?

  James GouldAug 30, 2025
  If the side brush of your BRODDSON Farm Equipment throws back sand against the curb stone, the tilting angle might be too small. To fix this, increase the tilting angle.
