So, this is about as far as I managed to get on the job . If I have this correct, this should be for the...

    Next thing i would like to look into is instrumentation. Im not planning on using the oem gauges as they fail too often for me. I have bought several over the years and a takeout gauge wasnt too expensive to buy, but the last time i did the price had gone up. I found some inexpensive gauges...

    Hey scoobyshep how are you. I had some time today I was out in the garage working on the connection box. So to my surprise, I did find something that may have caused the unit to stop making power. My Polaris connectors are not here yet and I was looking at rustystuds drawing. I figured why...

    Good day and how are you all doing. Well, I bought an sx460 off amazon and that arrived. I ordered the Polarus connectors, still not here. So I was out in the garage last night stripping out the connection box from the 003a. So far I have the voltage selector switch out, ct1&cvt1 transformers...

    Chainbreaker agree with you on that, one of my parts units i Had a mouse got into the reconnection box and destroyed the harness . Plus the switches for voltage selection needs to be cycled periodically to clean the contacts. Too much garb in there to go wrong.

    One other thing, The double Delta connection that i copied from Craigs post is different from the one in the TM. Different in which leads are connected. see TM5-6115-584-12 pg 62 I dont know how much of a difference that makes as I am not an electrician and have no idea how to rewind an...

    Good day Scoobyshep. I was running the generator on a normal startup and checkout not actually using it. I heard a tick noise and the gauges went flat. Im at the point with this machine that if I cant get it to make power Im going to machine a flywheel adapter, buy a bellhousing spacer, and...

    Looking at schematic in TM 5-6115-584-12, pg 62 i think Craig used this double delta connection. T8 & T10 tied together and tucked in his harness. I will need a 2 wire Polaris connector for this. T2 & T4 tied together and tucked in his harness. I will need another 2 wire Polaris connector...

    Hello Scoobyshep, Im trying to eliminate all the garb that goes bad on these machines. I have no use for 3 phase power, and always run my 002a in 240v configuration anyway. I can get an sx460 fairly easy and if it goes bad i can replace it fairly inexpensivly. Im trying to get my 003a repaired...

    Craig's set up , he has the machine running on 240 volt, single phase. He eliminated the selector switch, cvt 1 and 2 , I believe the bridge rectifier , the reactor and I think the main breaker. What do all the symbols on his drawing mean ?
