    M200A Mobility question

    If you air up the service line last, I believe the air brakes will stay in the off position on the trailer when you disxonnect it from the deuce. Whether the brakes lock when you disconnect depends on which line you disconnect first, at least on my trailer.

    rewiring MEP004 for single phase

    I plan to. I have some ideas on some stuff I can run off of the extra leg. And I can probably use that 5 kw somewhere. Whatever I do, this will be a step up. Right now, my backup generator is the auxiliary coil on a Miller stick welder. Runs a couple of lights, and keeps the heat on...

    rewiring MEP004 for single phase

    I have been lurking around looking for someone who has rewired an mep004 genset for single phase. I know that I can effectively use it as a single phase generator by pulling power from two of the three legs. What I am exploring is trying to avoid un-balancing the load on the third leg and...
