  If the JB Pipepuller Construction Equipment's power unit isn't running, several factors could be at play. First, verify the 12-volt battery's charge and replace or charge it if it's low. Check the remote battery and replace it or use an extension cord if needed. Inspect the 10 amp fuse and change it if blown. Ensure sufficient battery connection by cleaning and tightening connections. Also, clean and tighten the ground connection to the frame. Finally, check all connections and inspect the wiring for any loose or broken wires.
