I use a piece of tape on a box wrench for those nuts that I can't reach. It is a cheap and easy solution.

The large channel lock filter pliers work really well if you grab it up by the top

I have mounted many chargers where you asking about Jiggins. You will need to take the top panel off to secure. I run them through a relay so they get shut off automatically when you go to start the unit.

Btu on these is rated at 31000 for heat and 36000 for AC by the manufacture. I was off by 1000 in what I was thinking

Mine did have some sheetmetal damage. Most was fixable with a hammer and a dolly. One door was swapped with a mint one from a unit with a lot more hours.

My 803a I kept for my primary was the same way. It was issued to a national guard unit and only started a couple times to charge the batteries. Paperwork left in the door documented every minute it had been running. It had the great sum of 5. something hours on it. It was clean enough to eat off...

For some reason I was thinking I saw specs on these that the BTU on the heat side was 32,000. I could be wrong and thinking of another unit, but I remember being surprised that the BTU wasn't much lower on heat than air. Air filter wasn't clogged on either unit. Plenty of air flow for sure!

Pretty quick actually! Throw 2 extra logs in the burner and it is warm in a few minutes! Not quite the same though. I am not expecting them to warm things up in 20 minutes. I was just surprised by not having hot air coming out. The air is warm for sure, just not hot. But things may be different...

I fired a couple of these up yesterday. I used one at a time since I only had one 803a at this location. Felt heat coming out of it wasn't that great, but they did raise the temp in the building 12 degrees, 6 for each unit running about 20 minutes. I was expecting more felt heat coming out of...

You sure that element is rated for diesel?

Has anyone looked into the electronic governors they have for the 802/803? I'd be real curious to see how well they worked

That's who I was thinking of. I couldn't remember if he repaired or made new ones though

I think there was a member here that was making new ones.

That looks about normal for how they come of

I've had good luck with the side panel off and the channel lock type filter pliers gripping up high on the filter. It will smash it, but I've not failed to get one off yet

With the machine off spray deoxit in that control and exercise it fully from one extreme to the other. You'd be surprised what cleaning the contacts can do

While it may start the 3HP, and that isn't even a for sure thing since you plan on running 1HP dust collection at the same time, it won't start the 5HP motor. Sounds like you should be looking for 803a or larger to power all buildings at once. I'd be very surprised if you could start 5HP with an...

Marking as read at least put the threads in order by date. Before that the dates were completely random. That at least helps. Being old and not liking change doesn't help things!

I did see that. That tab shows new for the whole forum though. How can you find new feeds in specific forums like 5 ton and up or generator forums?

I can't figure out how to get new posts to come up first either and no way to distinguish from what I've read. Any answers?
