Hey guys, I am looking at a M1078 on an auction site. The front diff is remove as well as the front drive shaft. I'm interested in this one because it may be in my price range. It's 2 states away and my question is could I drive it home with just the rear wheel drive? Thanks Joe

Can any shippers/Freight Forwarders quote shipping an 803 on a trailer to Puerto Rico? I am in Atlanta. Thanks Joe

So cool. Thanks Joe

Good thread, need more time to read it all. Joe

Yeah I have a 240v A/C / Heater unit in my basement. I am going to make a plug for it and load this baby. I have other things I can load it with. Thanks Joe

Oh I understand. This may be a silly question but where is the throttle on the engine speed? What does the frequency knob do? Thanks Joe

Hey Guys, I got it running. It started right up! I am so excited. Thanks so much. Is it possible to run on full load when not connected to an actual load? Also, I read somewhere about some mods needed to be done to this unit for longevity. Something to do with the alternator. Thanks so...

It took me a min to visualize what you wrote. Now it makes sense. I will check now. I can say this. I don't have 136D connected to my new switch so I"m sure that's it. I knew it was something simple! Thanks Joe

Ok I now have power going in and out of CB1. But nothing at S1 or S2. Joe

I will go try to locate now.

I am somewhat able to read the schematics. I have power to S17. Nothing at S1. Looks like CB1 is where I am loosing it. I am trying to determine the location of CB1. Is it the same as the "Ground Fualt Circuit Interuper" on the panel? Thanks, Joe

If you mean the red emergency stop button yes and if you pull the switch out I have power to both sides. Joe

Hey Guys, I picked up two batteries and trying to get this thing started. I have power to the on/off safety switch. When it's pulled out both terminals have 24v (circled in blue). However, I don't have power to the section circled in red. I believe the area circled in red should be hot...

I don't expect to have a starting issue if I hook the switch up right. I put a meter on the new S1 switch and I think I am clear on what goes where. So no I just need to locate the wires on the genny. It just started raining so probably tomorrow. Thanks Joe

Oh I see. Thanks Joe
