Yes, I can make as many as you like. The foot forward mount is approx 1250 + shipping (based on steel prices, we can also make the front plate out of AR 500 or 600). It includes everything and is laser cut for accuracy. The kit has 4 new designed and thicker frame to bumper connector plates...
You would be better off buying a commercial single phase if you mainly need single phase over 10kw. I have put in quite a few 35kw single phase units and they work just fine and produce around the same single phase output of an 806 and they cost a lot less. You can modify the old 005 units but...
I put them on hand tight and so far neither of my own generators have any issues with the fuel water separator leaking. I can get them off with minor effort, not cuts, bruises, and I don't have to waste explosives. The one in the picture I posted was one of the worse ones I ever had to get...
I normally just take the side off since it is easier now with rivnuts. That way I can also check inside for any possible issues. I think I am going to add a side door that I can open without removing anything to just make this easy.
When you take everything apart, buy some good 10-32 aluminum rivnuts (30 to 40 cents each) and a installation gun and put them everywhere you do not have a captive nut. Also buy you a small qty of captive nuts and replace the ones that are rusty. I throw all the bolts away that are rusty and...
Well after much debate and looking at 802's and 803's I decided to do a hose design change. I didn't like the 2 90's since the hose practically bumps into the muffler on the 802, not the 803. So I reduced the bends by 45 degrees. The new hose will be totally away from the muffler. As I...
If very well could be and I hope that is all it is. The easiest fix. Hopefully we will know more soon. Not knowing any history except the unit is new to him with 2500 hours and he put in new fluids and filters. Any number of things could be going on. Wear and tear, a bad sensor, some gunk...
Were you running 240 single phase? Then 62 amps is 11.904 KW This is an excellent output on a 12 KVA (10KW) generator head since it can take it for a long time without overheating. You just forgot to include the power factor in your calculations. Sorry I am just an engineer that has had this...
Parts like bearings wear out or get spun and lower oil pressure. Remember these close surfaces keep pressure up just like you do when you pinch a garden hose to increase pressure. The larger the openings the less pressure you have.
The first thing you need to do is download the TM on the ONAN engine. It will walk you thru the procedure to test the engine for this issue. Not to be the bearer of bad news but the min spec for normal is 25 PSI. That is an engine with worn or damaged parts like bearings that cause oil...
Refer to the TM (9-2815-253-24) on testing oil pressure. When you use a gauge the oil pressure should be 36 psi @ 1800 rpm If that fails follow the TM.
I have lost my time and labor just fooling with them over the years since you can buy cheaper commercial units that supply more power for average home owners. I should have field stripped everyone I had and sold them piece by piece. More money in the parts business!
A P7100 does not have a keyway on the shaft it is a tapered shaft. The gear can go anywhere on the shaft. You have to time the fuel pump to the engine with #1 on top dead center. There is a pin in the fuel pump that has to be timed. You are going to need a new front gear case, gear...
Well I went ahead and purchased some and I wish I had done this to mine years ago. I only had one set (with 6 hours) that has a crack in the top well nut. I believe the cause was from over torquing. I had to cut it out. I just went ahead and replaced both. It is probably the most thankless...
