Line contactor tips keep burning up

Even if the battery checks good and both line contactor keeps keep burning up with in a month check out these two items. On the mini mast check the filter screen on the hydraulic manifold for blockage. It can cause the related valve to work harder causing the tips to burn. Dont ask me why it just does.

well i know you said battery checks out, but did you do a load test? put load on the truck with a meter connected to the battery lift it multiple times if it drops more than more than 3volts you may have a weak battery, i would be watching how quick it recovers to the starting voltage

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
