I most humbly retract the picture in the thread above. Its from the wrong trailer. THIS is the right picture. It plainly shows the ratchet, #18. When it is activated, the bottom of #18 presses on #'s 17,19 and 22. They press on the brake CYLINDER ASSEMBLY , stopping the trailer. The clip that...
Yes it should, but also the ratchet clip, (Item #3) is broken off. The bottom part of Item 2 should go to the rear when actuated, and press on the brake CYLINDER ASSEMBLY, (item #7)
Have you taken it apart yet?
You posted about this problem, (breakaway lever) in the thread:
Breakaway Lever on M101
and
Breakaway on surge Brake.
When you start trying to work your problem in more that one thread, it can get confusing. The Lug nuts is in only one thread. Not to worry. The KGB is not on the way, and...
Your right. Its on the B model.
I sent you this before, but am not sure Peter has seen it.
I think you can check on the A5, if K21 is sending power to the A5.
Reminds me of two guys I found working on an old gasser, in a trailer, with the flaps down, cause it was cold. Lips were blue, and they could hardly talk. Not good for your future.

I think you are a bit shy. Trust me, the engine is not running fast in the film. And its starting way to slow. Hook up the hoses and start it.
LITD's picture is spot on. The throttle cable is set right. The thing runs at 1800 RPM. that is not slow.
Ok, I looked again at the film. You started...
We used the standard AS spec O-Ring kit, when ever we needed to replace just these O-rings. The compleat O-Ring kit is to be had, and under two different part and NSN's.
Open up TM 9-2815-253-24P. Turn to (PDF Page #24) FIGURE 4. Fuel Pump and Lines. The picture you want is there. It looks like you are missing Item #19. There should be 2 or them, and I think in your picture there is only 1. There may be other O-rings missing. Look.
First off, RPM = Hertz. thats a direct relation. RPM dictates Hertz.
Second off, there is no idle. The set is supposed to run, all the time, at 60 hertz. When it runs right, and you stop the gen set, you just close the doors and walk away. Never adjust the throttle cable down to Idle/cool off...
