    Delta 34-806 Table Saw Powered by MEP-003A

    I won a Delta Model 34-806 table saw from GL at Holloman AFB. Although an older model, the saw is in almost new condition and is equipped with a 5 HP 3 phase motor. As received, the motor was wired for 440 VAC 3 Ph. I rewired the motor (10 minutes) for 230 VAC 3 Ph. Since I don't have 3...

    Installing the Pressure Relief Valve on the M35A3

    I found mine on E-bay. They appear to be present on E-bay almost continuously from several sellers. I think I paid $7.00 for mine, plus postage. A good price if the alternative is a potential explosion. I added some photos.

    Installing the Pressure Relief Valve on the M35A3

    I finally got around to installing the 4820-01-490-1773 pressure safety relief valve on my M35A3 compressor. The installation is covered by MWO 9-2320-386-20-2. All M35A3s were required to have this kit installed prior to 30AUG05, but for some reason my truck did not have the kit installed...

    M35A3 super shimmy!

    Running 70 psi is not good. The tires can take it, but the wheels are limited to 60 psi max. That's why I stop at 55 psi.

    M35A3 Technical Manuals

    If anyone needs MWO 9-2320-386-20-1 for the A3, send me a PM and I'll send it. This is the work order on how to install the air pressure relief valve on the air compressor.

    M35A3 super shimmy!

    Try running 55 psi in the tires. The higher pressure makes my A3 run much smoother.

    Hole in Gas tank

    Don't give up on your old tanks! Many radiator shops will repair fuel tanks for a reasonable fee. If most of the tank is still in good condition, get it repaired.

    Holloman AFB Pickup

    I just had a miscellaneous equipment pickup handled for me at Holloman AFB in New Mexico. I turned it over to the Shipping Store in Alamogordo, NM ( 575-437-7447) who picked the shipment up, palletized it, wrapped it and shipped it to me via LTL. Joe Ferguson handled everything. They did an...

    A3 pickup from Barstow, front flat tire

    I have several places around me that do that kind of work. I have had tires on my A2 (900 X 20) and my A3 dismounted repaired, and remounted for very inexpensive prices. It is absolutely not worth the risk of injury or the substantial sweat and sore muscles to do it yourself. I broke down one...

    New Post Rollover?

    Is it possible to change the way new posts are handled? Currently, when the count of new posts reaches a certain number, they are purged and the count starts again at zero. How about if there was a rolling count of say 30 or 40 new posts. As a new post was entered, one would drop off the...

    Deuce Oil pressure troubles

    I don't remember mine having that many fittings behind it, but I'm going from memory. Very good that you found out before your pressure went to zero! Thanks for the notice - I'm going to check mine when I get back home from the trip I'm on.

    A3 pickup from Barstow, front flat tire

    I admit I really like my CTIS also. Especially once I found out that my tire leakage problems were not caused by the CTIS, but instead by leaky valve stem grommets. My problem is that I run 55 psi in the tires because it drives and handles much better than 45 psi. I could probably get the unit...

    Pick a M35A3

    I agree with the M35A3C. Those beds are popular and easy to sell. A little off topic, but I personally would not hire a firefighter that couldn't drive a manual transmission. Fire fighters become involved in many emergency situations where the skill to drive a manual transmission could be...
