Had the same conversation Nicholas.

As I understand this issue, the hydraulic motor draws more power than he expected so he has had to protect the circuit with a lower rated fuse, he needs to replace the wiring to the motor for one of a heavier gauge so he can then increase the rating of the fuse to resolve this particular problem.
