These two guys (Speddmon and the Gimp) will NEVER steer you wrong, IMHO.

Congratulations on the start up. When I started ours, I told my 6 yr son to get back a little. (he hid behind a skid steer). When it fired off, he came out and gave me a high five. When I showed the wife the second start up, I went up for high five and she left me hanging with a tilted head and furrowed brow. She just didn't get it.Yeah I just went and messed with it a little and put the voltage at 240 and hertz at 61 and started my miter saw off of the convenience outlet. She barks a little and the hertz dropped to 55 or so but she came right up. I gotta get a load bank setup and run her through her paces next week I guess.
Glad to hear its running and making powerYeah I just went and messed with it a little and put the voltage at 240 and hertz at 61 and started my miter saw off of the convenience outlet.

No, not normal.My miter saw is a large dewalt 15 amp saw. And It only drops 3-4 hertz. I did have another question, when I start it and after it starts and I hold the switch to let it build oil pressure I can still hear the starter engaged. (grinding) Normal?
I think he's talking about holding the start switch in start position until it builds oil pressure. If so, mine tries to engage until I let off on the start after building oil pressure so yes that would be normal I believe.No, not normal.
