If you need 240, just tell the machine to produce 240 and forget about it. Don't even give the 3PH setting a second thought. Use the machine to do what you want.

Reach out to Gary Jones at Diesel Electric Services. See what he sells new LP injectors for. https://diesel-electric.us/

You can either mount a 50A box on your machine, or you can lop the plug off the power lead on the spider box, and wire up to the lugs that way (wires inside the main lead should be color coded to electrical norms).

I have received help from numerous SS users over the years outside of the forum (the most recent was @WWRD99 helping me with a genset in Chambersburg, and @funky winkerbean retrieving a genset all the way in Maryland). Great place this is.
