Just a quick question when you start the unit are you holding to start switch until the volt meter jumps to 120 volts and cycle meter jumps up to 60. these units require excitement by holding that switch until it starts generating power.
A very cheap way to see Utility power is back on is to pick up 120 volts from the utility side of transfer switch and install a LED light fixture. Like a very small night light that is on whenever utility power is on, if its off your on gen if its one turn gen off. I use this at 3 fire stations...
I believe I still have the front tube grill I removed from my 916A1 I will check tomorrow, if its here its up for grabs I removed it when adding the plow frame
You should be checking voltage at load lugs,the convenience outlet picks up power from different windings and should not be used for any large load. check for voltage between L0 and L1 and L0 and L3 see if you get same readings or not. The main breaker will have to be on for this and remember...
I have seen a few in camo A town about 15 miles away just got a plow truck that is camo, This one is faded yellow. Yes straight stack on front motor right through the hood, good ear muffs with plugs inside required.

It could I would use Electric contact cleaner. You can get it at parts stores. Also depending on weather you have a utility or a percise gen set will determine if it shuts off or not not all over voltage and over HZ safeties work on utility units.
