    P-250 mod 2 Hale Fire Pump

    Nice looking truck Hale has not come through yet and if they do they told me it would only be the manual for the pump not the motor. They did tell me the pump seals are still in stock as they are still used in some pumps made now. If I get manual it would be in digital format so I will post...

    MEP-004A recovery, smooooooth....

    Setting voltage up to 240 should not make outlet put out 135 140. check the voltage at the connection lugs. your gauge could be off that much.

    MEP-002A Question

    Well you need to run it at 1800 rpm to get 60 cycles and running it with little or no load will cause wet slacking and can damage the engine. Diesel generators should be run under load as much as possible. this way the run hot enough to burn all the fuel and not build up sludge in the...

    Let us know how it works out any help you need we are here.

    Mep 004aas 15kw gen, first time using it "help"

    The freq adjust will not do anything as a single unit, You MUST throttle the unit up. DO NOT let it idle. Voltage reg will burn up if you let it idle. start it flash it throttle it up to 60 62 HZ . I maintain 10 MEPs generator do NOT let it idle.

    Mep 004aas 15kw gen, first time using it "help"

    DO NOT let it idle you must throttle it up to 60 HZ Idling is very bad for these units

    Mep 004aas 15kw gen, first time using it "help"

    You will need to check the HZ meter as they have said. Also with a volt meter check the output on the main lugs 120/208 if you are set for 208. When you start the unit are you holding the start switch until volt and Hz meter flash and then let go of it so it excites properly?
