hi guys, for the the last week or so, when i start working ( with a fully charged battery), the flow has been very poor ,but give it an hour or so and it seems to pick up to full power, does this seem like a battery issue, or maybe the pump?

[Simon Trapani]

I’d check all electrical connections.

I wouldn’t think it was a battery issue as the amps would go down with use so you’d have less power as the day goes on , maybe your pumps on the way out? How old is the pump?

Possible air lock somewhere, which works its way out and hence the increase flow.
Does it cough n splutter before you notice the increase in flow? (The air coming out the hose in between water flow)

Ive had this happen on me a couple of times and its usually trapped air in my casr.

[rycalshaw]

yes , it does splutter occasionally..

- remove and clean pre filter
- disconnect hose reel put pump on 99 to clear any air out of pump

Check your fuse/fuses. I had the same last week and it turned out to be dirt/corrosion in one of the fuse holders.

Also check all connectors are tight if there’s and air leak or a small water leak

More more I think about it, if you've checked all electrical connections, then yes you've probably got air in it. Especially if it's often spluttering.

And if you've got a controller you won't be able to calibrate it properly with air in the system.
