    003a breaker trips when loaded

    You wrote: My breaker doesn't have any rating of amperage marked on it. There's a little light green paint on it and I carefully scraped it off where I think it should be marked, but don't see anything. It will be on the side of the CB, behind the panel. Truthfully no I have not. Then try...

    Has anyone sourced the MEP803a generator end bearing?

    I would call it a waste of time. Get what goes in the set. If it works, why fool with it?

    003a breaker trips when loaded

    Have you ever seen this set run and pull a load with no problem? The AC Output box looks like someone has rewired it. A lot of the connections look very close to one another. I know this will sound strange. But leave the cover off and after dark, start the set. Turn out the lights. Have...

    003a breaker trips when loaded

    Hook up a different, smaller load. If I remember right, the engine surges when you turn the load on. That means the gen set makes power and tries to start your load. Normally the surge and shutting off of the load means the load is too big. The gen set tries to assume the load and it is...

    Fuel drain shutoff valve

    That would be item #35. Its kinda hard to find. I had to look twice, and then again. Just so you know its there. Item #35 Part #: 695 COCK SHUTOFF SCREW This part is about standard for 100,000,000,000 different types of equipment. So is something probably easy to get/find. LITD has you...

    003a breaker trips when loaded

    That was the reason I wanted for him to unhook the load and turn on the CB1 and take voltage readings. So lets hear about what you get, one more time, and then we can get at the rest of the problems on your set.

I read some of you exercise this switch a few times a year to keep it freed up and contacts working. Could my problem be I'm only getting one leg of...

    Take the cover off the AC output box, is what they meant.

    Good morning and happy father's day weekend!

    Welcome! Go to the Generator forum and open a thread. There are some real smart people here. And like @Mullaney wrote, down load all the TM's and other documents. Great gen set and I think you will be happy with it.

    803A - No Load to Lugs

    You wrote: Sorry for the confusion....Yes you are correct on your assumption. With any 'new' or otherwise functional replacement of K20 relay and without doing anything, the CB1 pops within a few seconds of generator startup. The DS7, AC Circuit Interrupter light does not light up. K1 is not...

    803A - No Load to Lugs

    The K5 does not "Allow" the S5 to light up. The S5 is a switch. So I guess you mean DS7, the AC Circuit Breaker light? The DS7 is controlled by the K1. The only way the DS7 can come on is because the K1 turns on. Look at the schmatic. Do not get fixed on DS7. You need to know why K1 wont...

    803A - No Load to Lugs

    Bench test your new relay, IAW the -24 TM. When you say, "new relay", what do you mean? New from a package? New, from your other set? Are you sure its the right relay? It looks, the same, it has the same part number on it? There ARE different relays that sure look the same, but are not.

    Been in Whitewood more that a few times. A long time ago, when my Aunt was still alive, we came to visit there every few years. Always when the Rally was on. I worked on the house and grounds to pay for our stay. My son worked a few years in Ansbach with the Police. I spent many days working...

    Mep-805B CIM screen won't responded to keypad

    Bill, Thank you very much! This was very good. I am going to try and insert this into the TM section. This is a great help. And yes, the keypad has a bad rep. Mostly because its a pluck and chuck item.
