I’ve used these in the past: https://www.jbsprings.co.uk/

At a guess I would say that was a 2 phase 400v input for the main welding power and 1 phase + neutral 240v for the wire feed, electronics etc.

You always need the earth, never use something without the earth connected. If you want to connect something with a 4 pin plug to a 5 pin socket it’s the neutral you miss out. 4 pin = 3 phase + earth 5 pin = 3 phase + neutral + earth

I am one and the same, although there are two of us on the farming forum, myself with a space and another without. I had already read the thread other than the basics oil, filters etc that had already been mentioned my knolage of telehandler drive systems is limited.

For the seals you need give these chaps a call: https://www.fpeseals.co.uk/ If they can’t help chances are no one can.

Cold rolled can behave like that.

Is fitting a bigger supply totally off the cards? Some work now sorting a bigger supply could not only help with compressor choice but open door for other toys down the road.

Do you have a tachometer? Would be easy to check if the belts are slipping.

Dose it do the same consistently? Is it the same when you first start it on a morning as it is after running for a while?

I always stop before the carriage stop, it’s the way I was shown at collage and have continued ever since. With practice you get used to stopping the feed very close to the stop and seamlessly continuing the feed by hand.

Happy new year everyone :drunk:
