Why is the MQ Multiquip MVH128GH travel speed low and vibration weak?
- M
  Mr. Anthony SingletonAug 3, 2025
  Low travel speed and weak vibration in your MQ Multiquip Other can be caused by several factors. First, check if the clutch or V-belt are slipping; adjust or replace them if necessary. Also, verify the oil level in the vibrator and correct it if it's excessive. Issues within the vibrator assembly, such as worn or defective parts, can also cause this problem, so inspect and replace any faulty components. Additionally, ensure there's no air in the hydraulic oil for the travel reversing system by purging it. Finally, confirm that the engine speed is set to the correct RPM.

  If your MQ Multiquip Other travels forward or backward but won't switch direction, consider these potential causes: First, inspect the hydraulic pump for any issues. Ensure the Direction Control Lever is correctly installed. Replace any broken or defective oil hoses. Purge any air from the hydraulic oil using the bleed plug. Correct the oil level if there's excessive oil in the reversing system. Clean the valve inside the hydraulic pump if it's clogged. Finally, check the cylinder piston bearing for leakage.
