    Why is my Pottinger FARO 4000 L/D torque limiter on the driveshaft triggered?
    • M
      Michael LeeAug 16, 2025
      The torque limiter on the driveshaft of your Pottinger Farm Equipment might be triggered due to several reasons: too much forage at once, a large foreign body, or blunt knives. To resolve this, declutch and start off again at low revs. If there's a foreign body, remove it and sharpen the knives. If the knives are blunt, sharpen them.

      If your Pottinger Farm Equipment exhibits poor cutting quality, it could be due to blunt knives or the p.t.o. speed being too high. Sharpen or replace the knives. Also, drive at lower revs to avoid picking up larger wads of forage.

      If forage jams occur in your Pottinger Farm Equipment, it might be because the travel speed is too high, or the trailer is hitched up too low. To fix this, set the drawbar to the correct height.
