Its been a minute since i have been on this site. Unfortunately i do not have any of the overlay decals available. I should still have the file around though. You can take it to any sign shop and have it printed on vinyl with a matte laminate applied over it.
GREAT! sorry about shorting you the couple screws. mind fart i guess. lol. i know other guys have installed them in the 800 series before but i have never actually seen them in one before. thanks for posting
been awhile since i posted but jim is right about the caswell stuff. ive been using it for 10 years now on alot of the bikes i do paintjobs on. novalac epoxy is about the most chemical resistant stuff on earth. as mentioned before though, by the time you go through all the trouble of lining the...
sorry i havent been around much lately. figured i would drop in today to say hello and see what cool stuff rusty has done to his 002. man that looks sooo empty in there lol. nice job.
yes, in those pictures i did just a quick hookup just to see them working. the best way is to set these up to monitor voltage and current on each hot leg. this would normally show 120 as the voltage reading. i connect them to the input side of the main breaker. this way they are on when the...
when i changed out my hour meters i always used the hobbs brand which was what the military has in these units originally i think. i havent had a problem as of yet with it and there are many gensets with thousands of hours on the meter although with that said when i was a mech in the army...
yes i still have them. i mostly just run them on ebay. i had them here in the classified section but i would forget to bump the listing every couple weeks and it would get deleted. i dont have hour meters but the volt/current and frequency gauges are all available. just shoot me a pm. they are...
missed this one....to m16ty, if those are my gauges on your gen then those are reading correct. i take all my electronics before assembly and zero them out to 60hz. i never rely on them to be set correctly at the factory. the ones in your panel can normally be off +-.5 or so. found that out a...
thats awesome jim. glad you decided to do this. i know many including myself have been asking for quite a long time. as usual it looks quite professional and im sure the inside is done to the same detail. i actually might need one for my 002. i have to dig into it a little bit and do some...
it needs power to produce power. when it just starts up you need to hold in the start position to generate the magnetic field so it can produce power. its fairly normal and time needed seems to vary a bit from generator to generator.
i really dont know roger. i know guys here have said the gear reductions are nicer on the generators but im sure the ebay ones are some type of import or something. i dont know anyone that has had one. if my starter went i would certainly buy one. new starters of the original type are crazy...
You can buy the solenoid. Southern automotive makes them but if i remember right they are around 80 bucks. For about 130 you can pick up a brand new style gear reduction starter on ebay. I know they are on there. You just have to do a search. If you cant find it send me a pm.
