MODEL 3680 TROUBLE SHOOTING
PROBLEM - AUGER WILL NOT TURN USING THE MANUAL CONTROLS: (cont.)
(All other hydraulic systems are working)
Possible Cause Possible Solutions
Low hydraulic system pressure. A quick check of the hydraulic pressure can be done
by placing the pressure gauge into the diagnostic port
provided on the control valve. Put the Auger manual
control valve into forward position to check the Auger
working hydraulic pressure. An 1800 PSI (124 bar)
reading would indicate that the Auger is mechanically
stalled by some obstructing material. A very low pressure
reading would indicate a hydraulic problem with the
pressure relief valve or the hydraulic pump. See
“Procedure for checking hydraulic pump and relief valve
setting” in the Hydraulic Section.
No hydraulic system pressure. Trace the pressure line from the valve bank back to
the manifold used for the Hydraulic Shut Down
system. Identify the electric solenoid for this circuit
and verify that you have a 24 volt reading (12 volt on
some models) with the ignition switch on. These
solenoid valves need to be energized or the oil is
pumped back to tank. If you have the proper voltage,
try swapping this solenoid with another to determine if
it is bad. If the problem moves to the circuit you
swapped with then the solenoid is at fault. If the
problem stays with the circuit you are working on then
the pump is your problem.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM - MATERIAL BUILDING UP UNDER THE INFEED CONVEYOR:
Possible Cause Possible Solutions
Augers not turning. Refer to Augers will not turn using the manual
controls.
Augers turning but covered by debris. Sometimes doing house demolition a piece of plywood
or similar material can be pulled in and cover the
augers so they are unable to do their job. Raise and
secure the Feedwheel following all safety procedures
and clean debris from augers.
PROBLEM - DISCHARGE CONVEYOR BELT NOT RUNNING:
(All other hydraulic systems are working)
Possible Cause Possible Solutions
Material wedged or stuck preventing With the Recycler shut down, check around Discharge
the Discharge Belt Conveyor from turning. Belt Conveyor looking for anything that may have the
Discharge Belt Conveyor bound up.
Discharge Belt Conveyor running off track. Make adjustments to conveyor so that belt is running
centered.
Discharge Belt Conveyor drive roller Check Discharge Belt Conveyor for proper tension.
