Unless you do gen set repair as a full time job, these are over kill. But would I LOVE to get in on my hands!! These are for the big boys. Seen one, one time in Graf, and it was going down range. Ohhhhhhhhh what a nice set!

If you are going into the biz of repairing gen sets, then I would agree with you. But if all you are ever going to have is a 5 KW gen set, well, I would advise you to think about it again. Its a two men and a boy lift. Its a 30 KW load bank. For the money you would need to buy a A427, you could...

Exactly. It needs to cool down. Always look to see nothing like a scrap piece of paper. or other trash can get sucked up into the L/B. The L/B has a safety system, to turn it off if the flow of air is not strong enough to overcome the the "Flap" switch. Also, a problem we had for a while, was...

Posted to the other thread, just now.

Should be one here in the forum. If not, here it is.

Thats why I asked for the pictures.

This C-Plug is in the bottom position, right? Check to see if the voltage selector switch is in the proper position. Place switch in proper position. Lets see a picture of your cable hook up on both sides.

Stop. Calm down. Lets think about what it can be before trying to find someone to fix it for you. Do you have the TM for the Test Set, (Load Bank)? Have you read how to operate AND properly hook up the test set. Did you have both side doors open? Are the internal connections properly made? Did...

That all depends on what you want. Best to get smart on Load Banks first. No point spending tons of money when all you want, is to use one at home 2-3 times a year. If you have a shop full of gen sets, then buying a GOOD load bank is a must, in my opinion.

Slow blow? Fast blow?

You can do superior work, when you have superior equipment! If not, it takes so much longer!!

Of course. Google A427 load bank. I beleve there are pictures in this thread, someplace.

There are two other possible explanations. The first, and it once again provides me the excuse to bemoan the lack of the AMDF. Army Master Data File. Type in the NSN or part number and you get a complete run down on the item being researched. One of the interesting pieces of information is the...

Well, get 30 or 40 friends to make the trip with you. Everyone put a few parts in their luggage and maybe no one will notice?. Ok, the doors might be a problem.

Life just dosnt get any better then a A427!

Ahab, Have you ever seen a 60's or 70's PS MAG? Connie and Bonny were, how shall I say this? More shapely? Somewhat "simpler dressed?" The Nam issues were much more interesting.

You need to keep us informed on this. Sounds interesting. The old DED, 15, 30 and 60 KW's used to have a loadbank mounted on top of the generator set. Looked like a coffin. Good heaters, but always looked like crap, because the stupid CARC paint got hot and pealed off. The metal rusted. Keep an...

You are a lucky Dog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man, a A427!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Life doesn't get any better than that! I made a small trailer out of angle irom, nice tube tires and was it nice to pull around the shop. I had four more on a rack, to test the 150 KW turbine generators. Oh were they good...
