My 803a will start my AC unit with the well and some other 220 things going already. The hard start kit makes a big difference. You need to make sure your unit will put out at least 100% power and doesn't have any issues using some sort of disposable load bank.
I just put one of Kurt's controllers in a one on Monday. Runs like a top now. Just sitting seems to make the stock one go haywire. I have a couple more to do now that I've seen firsthand how well they work getting rid of that factory controller.
Just cut or pull the crimp off and buy regular 1/4" fuel line. A couple feet of 1/4" line and some clamps fix that right up. I replace that line along with all the return line on every set I work on.
Always charge both batteries separately first. That makes sure they are 100% charged and neither one is bad before being put into service. After that is it fine to charge them on 24v together.
I use them on all my 24v setups. I have the version with the solar panel and 120v charger. I wire the charger to cut out via a 24VDC relay when S1 is turned to run or prime on the generators. The truck is set up differently, but all 3 of my gen sets are set up to be automatic
I may have some of those shrouds. I'd have to look. I threw dozens of those in the scrap load last time. I take them off all the units I work on. I use a piece of one to cover the large hole in the bottom to keep rodents out and scrap the rest.
Use a relay with a 120v plug on the other end. A 24vdc coil relay and a plug are all you need to automatically shut the charger off as soon as the prime position gets turned on.
I have a piece of flex, a couple 45 degree elbows, and a turn to go out my metal roof. I used fire caulk both sides first and then some high temp silicone over top of that after running the unit. No leaks yet. Been like that almost 2 years.
That would depend on your end use. If you have need for the unit to be mobile I would pay for the trailer to be sent with it. If you have no need of the trailer I'd leave it behind and save on shipping personally.
