It definitely beat a Jack and rolling around in gravel.

I’m saving up for a 220/240 series Volvo excavator.
Halfway there

Wow thats a big machine, looking for a 35 or 50 size excavator myself. You must have big plans for the new property. Please post pictures when you get it

Big plans for the ranch.
New desert property will get attention later.
Need to redo pond and expand it. Etc.
Have a LOT of big trees to take down and that size machine is the most “bang for the buck” that I can afford.
Buying generators, trailers and parts isn’t helping.

It came with this strange floor plate up front.
Have no idea what it’s used for.

That would depend on what system it was a part of. If you took a picture of every data plate on the trailer, then we might be able to tell you. There are at LEAST 3-4 data plates on the trailer.

Do the guys who use these generators for standby power leave them out in the weather 24/7 or build an enclosure for them?

I know their built for staying outside but that definitely takes a toll on them over time.

I was thinking of doing a little Tuff-Shed

This is what I did for mine. (It looks crooked but trust me, it's not. )

Nice enclosure but it is going to put exhaust right against the house. Very good chance of CO Poisoning in the house. If you have to leave it there be SURE to install CO detectors in the house.

I figured someone would pick up on that. Thanks for the observation. I have a black iron exhaust that carries it up and out the gap on the right side of the enclosure. I removed it because I removed all the top covers. I wasn't happy with my exhaust and I am thinking that I may try to fab up a venturi system that will draw the exhaust up and through a hole in the fence. Something similar to the vent in a gas water heater.

I do have multiple CO detectors throughout the house. All tied together so if one goes off, they all do.
