Thank you all for your advice and suggestions!! It has been a busy couple of days dealing with everything and I appreciate the response. I have concluded that yes this machine is not what I need for I have a mixture of appliances that need the 240. And yes I’ll be running it for several weeks...

Thanks for the info.. yes I figured out how to connect the wires by the manual but the 120/208 was what the AC tech said not to use

Was going to hook up the generator to my house and my AC electrician says that it needs to be 120/240 not 120/208. Storm blew through last night so this is became high priority. Something I should have done and checked already but here I am. can someone answer the question is it an easy way to...

Peter I was hoping for something out of whack with the latest test you gave me but every one was under 1 ohms around .03 once my meter settled out on each one. So I guess that would conclude the wiring you had in question to be okay if I am thinking right. I am going to put it on my pad and have...

Thanks Guyfang for the parts list, and explanation of the different ones. Peapvp I defiantly understand the not knowing what my multi meter capability's are, but only have the Craftsman's version which I'm wanting to upgrade now that I have a better understanding of multi meters. I know I...

Is it wise just to leave the jumper wire in and run it that away? I’m guessing A5 has something wrong with a connection inside. I looked online and there not readily available and seems expensive of the one I saw. Can a person have them refurbished

Well!!…!!!.. Gentlemen 🤠 although you probably have bad news for me on what probably needs replacing! I can’t help but say it feels good that the machine fired off and ran up to rpm and produced 60hz like she is new!! I hooked a heater up to outlets everything seems to be operating normally no...

Okay thanks will try that and report!

I checked those wires and they are the correct ones on terminals #18-20 I’ll send pictures of A5

I meant to to say K21 not K12 on the Terminal B olhms check I originally said K12 but edited it but not sure it did on your end

Good Afternoon sounds like you guys are from the ole school and been there done that and forgot more than ill ever know as a few ole timers have told me!!! My ancestry comes from Germany and is on my bucket list to get there. My last name is Kaufmann and my Moms maiden is Peters so kinda full...

I think it is S12 not S19

Yes you sent that earlier I was using it as a guide to check the #1,3 and 19 that’s when I discovered if I touched #1 with my meter tester the unit speed up rpm and went to 60hz if the S19 was in the 60hz position kinda thru me for a loop! I will print out all the ideas and instructions and sit...

Guyfang I’ll have to double check but I am unaware of any light visible on A5 while running on 60hz that doesn’t mean it’s not. So tomorrow I’ll get back to the project and double check for the light!

Thank You PEAPVP I'll go through that per your instructions and let you know the results. I truly appreciate the patience and time.
