Default MB 18 genset info

We just picked up an MB 18 generator and my SS site search does not find anything on this generator. It is a 30 KW that looks somewhat similiar to an MEP005. Anyone know where I could look for information (operators manual etc.) ~~~ Also picked up a GCC-300-W welder and it too does not appear to have any references on the SS site. I need help with info on this one too. ~~~ I did find a thread on the MC 2 compressor we got, but that thread indicated no manuals found.

I have hit the site and read some threads ~~~ learned the MB 18 was probably an Air Force Genset from the late 60's early 70's ~~ What is required to post on that site? It appears I would have to join or become a member to ask questions???

Correct. All you need to do is register to start posting. I registered on there when I purchased my MEP-003 and 018a.

At least you don't have to ride a greased goat while playing a violin.

I just hate being timid. Hard to get dates that way.

Last time you had a date, you got a keeper. Had a good lunch with JR today.

Yea, and verily I say unto you that I have been on a steady date for lo these many years. That and I know which side of my bread is buttered and I have managed to make sure it always stayed sticky side up. ~~~ Talked to Jollyroger briefly and he said it was a good day. ~~~ Did he tell you the Genset had about 90 hours on the Hobbs? it was rebuilt 6 March 1992 and looks like it got installed and operational again in Nov 1998. The Welder is a Hobart with a Wisconsin 4V rated at 300 amps and a couple of 115v AC outlets with a KVA 4 rating. It was delivered to the military June of 1979. Welder paint is really gone on the top and the rest looks tan. There is some oxidized blue green something around the control panel. It sort of looks like a civilian unit except for all the military id plates.
