I haven't tried this before, but I here is a scan of TM-5-6115-425-12 for the SF and HF-60-MD/CIED 60KW 3 phase generator sets from the VN era. The manual I scanned was rather ugly, as it was stored in the generator set's manual pouch since 1969. -Chuck

Hi, I recently acquired a couple of VN era diesel generator sets. They are Military Design, 60KW 3-phase sets that have Cummins C180-BIG 6 cylinder engines, and Onan 60KW 3 phase generator heads. A fun part is the generator heads weigh more than the engine, and the engine is pretty, uhmm...

Hi, I just finished repairing a couple of M35A2 Flasher modules, and thought some might be interested. The problem is the circuit board is single sided, and the manufacturer drilled the holes too big. That means that if the component leads are not bent over onto the board, the potting...

What could be a more common event? Go to GL to pick up your new deuce, and its brake pedal has no resistance all the way to the floor. It happened to me, and I would bet it has happened to more than a few of you. So, you pull out your patented SS Garden Sprayer Brake Bleeder, bleed the...

During the first few miles of my deuce's recovery, the speedometer was working nicely.... Suddenly it whipped around past 60 and spent the rest of the 1200 miles bouncing off of the back side of the zero peg. The odometer continued to work just fine. I noticed a brown liquid plastic like...

Hi Gang! There are some things you just can't know about until you do them... Recovering a deuce is one of those things. I am sorry there are no recovery pictures, but I hope my story and your imagination will be enough. Having no time to shoot pictures is one of those things I just couldn't...

Hi, I built a little 24V to 12V regulator to handle cell phones, and gps load, but I am wondering where I could easily find 24V to power it. Is there a terminal board somewhere in the cabin that is easily accessible? Thanks! -Chuck

Hi Gang! Well my turn has finally come! My EUC is clear, and I think all of my ducks are in a row. It's time to recover my deuce! I will be traveling from Ft McCoy to Rhinelander Wisconsin, where I will lay over as I check to see how the deuce faired on its first outing. Then if all is...

Hi Gang! I'm still searching for insurance in Maryland. I keep hearing about these wonderful unlimited policies that other folks are getting for $200-300 per year, and wondering why I can't even get into the ball park. Here is what I have found so far for Maryland: Gulfway - $189/year...

Hi, My EUC finally cleared, so 37 days of anxiety are over! I am looking for a reliable, affordable hauler that can haul my deuce from Ft McCoy in Wisconsin to the Frederick Maryland area. It has to happen in the next couple of weeks. Thanks! Chuck

Hi Gang, I know this is pure heresy, but... Even though I love the camo colors and paint pattern, and I love the mechanical marvel that is a deuce, and I am easily lazy enough to leave the paint as it comes from DL... I have no interest in being mistaken for a soldier, or accepting accolades...

Hi, I need someone who can haul a running M35A2 from Sparta, Wisconsin to Rhinelander Wisconsin. I am awaiting my EUC, so it could be anytime in the next 45 days... I'll know more later. -Chuck
