prices Light, I saw that one!! I also saw the result and I have to believe that it was some kind of a typo. Units right next to it on the auction went for $1700/$1900 respectively! I pray that mangled one didn't go for that much!

Wanted to close this thread out, or at least bring some conclusion to it. After much tutelage from many here, a few PM's with suggestions of solutions, I have solved the issue with the unit tripping my overload without even getting to 100%. I sourced a K8 from eBay for cheap money and installed...

Day, I plan on running it today for a few hours, will report back. I am just wondering why it trips the overload so easily. I have been using your video as a reference on your 802. Mine won't bog down at all, just trips the overload and that is it.

Guy, thanks for those tips on getting a printable version. I know that will help immensely. I took the top off again today to recheck everything. Once I started poking around I realized that everything inside there is labeled! I.E. K1, TB6, S8, etc. That was a huge help. I did run it up today...

I have just gone thru the schematic and it is very difficult to follow since I am new to these and not an electrical engineer. And, I tried printing them, but they are large files and either print very small or are too large for one piece of paper. So, I try to jump around on my computer. I just...

The load bank shut off and I had tripped the overload. When I tried to turn the S5 switch back on, it would activate K1(?)but not stay connected. I would see a bump in % gauge and than it would shut down. All along the DS7 would light when that the switch S5 was activated. Since it wouldn't...

Jama, not sure what this thing is that you call "patience"??? Can I get that at Walmart??? I hear you on all fronts. I am running break in oil. I read that is very important. I am going to go thru the connections again and see if there is anything obvious that is going on. Maybe look at that TB...

Gentleman, I have verified the wiring of S8 is correct. I have rotated the switch many times. I have not douched it with contact cleaner yet. Waiting on that to arrive. I am running said 4KW heater as a load bank. I seem to be able to run it for between 8-9 minutes and than it will trip the...

Light, thanks for your helpful response. The information you provided is exactly what I was looking for. I am trying to follow the manuals and will put some more work into that. I will get back to you regarding the PM you sent me. Thank you.

Jana, thanks very much for the helpful post. I am new to all of this and trying to interpret the military jargon and abbreviations for everything can get confusing. But, I am trying and downloading TM's(see, I am getting it!)every day. Glad to hear others have had the same issue. And yes, I did...

jama, thanks for the suggestion. Will try to identify the reconnection switch and check the connections. There are only 15 hours on this unit.

Not sure what "dance" your talking about. I just re-read the whole thing and there was nothing mentioned about a K8 relay. I am not sure which of the multiple books and hundreds of pages I have to scour to find the "K8" or "S8", but I will attempt to do that. Yes I did get an idiot light on the...

Hello all. Have my "new" 802a up and running. Have a 240volt 4K watt space heater hooked up via the main lugs. The heater runs for approx 10 min than starts tripping the overload. I have 2 of these and was going to use them one at a time and than both together to put a strain on the motor and...
