    I have some 12 volt LED flood lights I would like to hook up to my 24 volt MEP802. Can I hook them up to a single battery and ground to the same battery? The generator uses two 12 volt batteries in series. Can I run wires to one of these both ground and positive to run some 12 volt lights...

    Is there a treaded barbed fitting for the oil drain on the mep802?

    The oil drain on the mep802 has a threaded plug that uses a 3/8" socket drive. Is there a threaded fitting that has a barb so I can drain it using a hose? My Generator is up on a trailer.

    M116A3 Hub size? or how do I fit Jeep Wheels?

    No that doesn't sound right. Method 1: Adapting from trailer OEM to Jeep or other wheel pattern. (cheepest) I think mine are 3" thick and the vehicle center bore was approx 3" bore, and they are a 2 piece adapter. The adapter is as thick as those trailer studs are long, plus cover the...

    MEP 831 ran fine now Short Circuit / Overload turns it off.

    It was the whole control area like 69birdman pic's have above that I took a hair dryer to it. The fault was tripping from high humidity. That is if it's running and a humid down pour the machine it hot and runs fine, but when trying to start it it has issues sometimes when humid.

    MEP802A has Phase 3 power but no phase 1 power?

    The phase-3 vs phase-1 problem was me, I didn't know the phase-3 and phase-1 controlling was the one behind the panel, VS the switch that is on the panel and lets you select phase-1 and phase-3. THanks for your help on that ! Now when I put the switch (behind the panel) on Phase-3 is shows...

    MEP802A has Phase 3 power but no phase 1 power?

    The switch I am referring to is the one that selects the Phase and legs you want to use. (sorry i don't know it's name). I did look thought he TM's but I didn't see anything that popped out at me. It is this one circled here. (not my gen just example of the switch).

    MEP802A has Phase 3 power but no phase 1 power?

    Without the load hooked up the Phase 1 shows no voltage. Without the load hooked up on any the phase 3 setting the gen runs ok and produces power on the phase 3 settings. With the load hooked up the short-circuit light come on as soon as the gen circuit is turned on. I'll go through the TM's...
