Why does the motor overload in my Cumberland Farm Equipment?
If the motor of your Cumberland Farm Equipment overloads, ensure you're using the correct line voltage and wiring size appropriate for the motor and length of the line run. Also, clear any obstructions from the hopper, boot, and outlet holes. Confirm that the boot and control unit are properly installed.
How to fix a Cumberland Hi-Lo Farm Equipment spinner control pan that won't shut off?
If the spinner control pan of your Cumberland Farm Equipment won't shut the system off, try replacing the solid state relay or the PC board. You can also adjust the pulse settings to a lower pulse using the DIP switches on the PC board. Ensure nothing is blocking the throat and that feed drops into the center of it.
What to do if the feeders in my Cumberland Hi-Lo Farm Equipment will not run?
If the feeders of your Cumberland Farm Equipment will not run, replace any burned-out fuses and correct any tripped circuit breakers. Determine the reason for any overload. Adjust or replace the switch if it is defective.
Why won't my Cumberland Hi-Lo Farm Equipment spinner control pan restart when feed is called for?
If the spinner control pan of your Cumberland Farm Equipment does not restart the system when feed is needed, replace the spinner motor. If center house pans are used, ensure the voltage at the spinner motor in the center house pans is between 17 and 24 volts. If there is no voltage, ensure the field wiring to the center house control pans is correct. If the voltage is very low, use a heavier gauge wire. You may also need to replace the PC board or the solid state relay. Bending the spinner motor mounting bracket to point the paddle slightly to the center of the throat and away from the throat wall can also help.
Why does the auger run erratically in my Cumberland Hi-Lo?
If your Cumberland Farm Equipment's auger runs erratically, run feed through the feed line. If necessary, replace the bearing. Ensure the auger was stretched properly and remove any obstructions in the boot and/or line.
What to do if Cumberland Farm Equipment is not moving enough feed to the pans?
If there is not enough feed moving to the pans of your Cumberland Farm Equipment, install an agitator ball. You can also cut the shaft to a shorter length for more feed, but do not shorten it more than 1" (2.54 cm) from the boot sidewall. Adjust the feed level control switch for proper operation.
How to reduce noise and wear in my Cumberland Hi-Lo feeder?
If your Cumberland Farm Equipment feeder is extra noisy or shows excessive wear: 1. Remove the auger. 2. Find any kinks and straighten them. 3. Smooth any bad welds by filing them. 4. Remove and replace the auger tube.
