Pushing people toward the TM's is common here because a whole hell of alot of people come around asking questions that are easily answered in the TM's. Sometimes out of laziness, sometimes just because they had no idea the TM's existed. Not saying you're one of those people, just that it happens...

Sorry to revive a dead thread, but I've just been lurking old threads. I noticed the comfort zone 3, 4 and 5kw heater is now $79.61 on Amazon. I'm picking up at least one for my 802a. Easy way to make an inexpensive load bank with a few of these and an electrical panel...

OD green?

There is no doubt about whether or not it can. It can absolutely do the job. The point we're trying to make is that the machine is designed to run 120/208. It has a voltage adjustment to give you some working room. But if you set the 208 side to 240, then that brings your 120 side to 139v. Most...

If you're running computers and such, I would stick to 208. Look at the L-N voltage and bump it up until you get to 120. L-L should be something like 212 at that point. The motors will likely work just fine. If you bump the L-L to 240, your L-N will be around 139 which is too much for the 120...

Good idea! If not, United Rentals will rent him an all terrain forklift. Deliver and pick up for a little extra as well.

X2 on the flatbed tow truck. I helped some people unload a huge embroidery machine out of a dry van at a business a while back. We used a forklift to position is and transfer onto the flatbed, and then the flatbed rolled over to the door and we drove it down. I would definitely call a couple...

I have noticed that the day tanks on these units are big enough to accommodate about 24 hour run time on a tank of fuel. So my 802A 5kw has a 5 gallon tank and my 805B 30kw has a 23 gallon tank. An older thread on here referenced the TM that states fuel capacity is 43 gallons and consumption is...

Dang! As far as coolant goes, I use the red heavy duty stuff. Shell Rotella ELC, my buddy buys it premixed in 55 gallon drums. He works on a lot of busses so he keeps that and Rotella oil on hand.

I like it, that's a nice fuel tank. I should look into something that size for my 805

You should be on single phase 120/240 on the phase selector switch

Interesting thread, following.

Just curious, what are you upgrading from? What do you run that you require such a large machine?

You can get 4 brand new OEM injectors for about the price of them rebuilding one. But it's ONLY a backup to the house when you lose power. So let me ask you this: How are you going to feel about the few dollars you saved if those Chinese injectors quit working when you're using it and your house...

Ahhh yea that might feed it for a day or two!

It shouldn't matter though as the aux pump only fills the day tank. So even if it loses it's prime, it will just reprime. Only has to go through 6' of hose anyway. I believe the pump as an internal check valve as well. What set are you running? And what tank setup?

Sorry to hear about the wife, glad she's taking a good attitude toward it. I am definitely interested in what you all are working on in regards to the B series, if it comes to market.

Yea I was looking for one to soften the blows when dealing with my 805 lol

Not a bad idea. I do live in a very dry climate and I pay attention to the fuel I buy, avoiding bio like the plague. I just don't care for it. The aux tank has already been cleaned and is ready to be put into service.

I will do a little more research and see if it is needed. The fuel filter is rated to flow 12-15GPM so I doubt it would be an issue. My friend has a transfer pump pulling through a filter on his tank and it doesn't seem to struggle at all. But if it does need it, I like your idea.
