When many wheeled excavators use rubber wheel hook or wood grabber, the fuel consumption sometimes increases. What are the main reasons for the increase in fuel consumption?
1. If you change too thick engine oil or engine oil that does not correspond to the season, the friction of internal parts will increase, and the fuel consumption will naturally increase when the friction is large.
2. The spark plug in the grabber is a pivotal part for power supply. If the spark plug is blocked, the fuel cannot be completely burned, and the fuel consumption will continue to increase. Moreover, the spark plug has a service life. Remember to replace the spark plug regularly.
3. The overload construction of wood grabber will also lead to a sudden increase in fuel consumption. For example, when a person moves things, the effort to move things of different weights is different, and the same is true for small wheeled excavators. The overload construction will naturally consume more fuel.
4. If the above three aspects are OK, it is likely that the oil tank or oil supply system leaks oil. At this time, check whether the oil tank and oil supply system have cracks and whether the sealing strip is aging, resulting in sealing problems. Fuel consumption will also be affected by the environment, drivers' driving habits and proficiency.
