I do have one not sure why , or if it's good

That was the problem started right. Now i don't have voltage 65 volts at l1 -3, adjustment dose not work and hertz won,t go below 61

I have another VR mabe swap out?

Did you hook my VR's wire back up to K15-1?

Frequency is set by adjusting the Frequency Adjust throttle cable located on the far left as you're facing the control panel. Recessed black knob. unlocking the knob and turning it will adjust the frequency (engine RPM).

yes

When you start the generator and hold S1 in START is the correct AC voltage displayed on the generators AC Voltmeter? What voltage does it read?

Once you release S1 back to Prime/Run does the AC voltage displayed on the generators AC Voltmeter drop? What voltage does it read?

 

[mchlsprgn]

yes

frequincy stops at 60

 

[kloppk]

Normally you can adjust the frequency a few Hz below 60. You'd need to post up a picture of the mechanical governor lever so we can see if it's a cable problem or an adjustment issue with the mechanical governor stops. Normally the stops are set at the factory and don't need adjusting.
Post up a picture when you have a chance of the mechanical governor lever and the stops.

yes it drops to 0 sodoes the hertz ,about 200 volts

Make sure the wire from my VR labeled M7-I is on the correct terminal on the Oil Pressure Gauge.
It should be on the "I" terminal, not the "S" terminal.

[/ THAT DID IT!.. MY OIL GAGE IS OPPOSITE OF THE PICTURE NEEDED A MAGNIFING GLASS TO FIND I TERMINAL
HERTZ HAS LOTS OF AJUSTMENT SO DOES THE VOLTAGE I'M STOKED THANKS FOR YOU PATCIENCE MIKE

I have TM 9-6115-642-10 not a lot of trouble shooting advise . witch one should I have?

 

[kloppk]

TM 9-6115-642-24

 

[mchlsprgn]

TM 9-6115-642-24

Thank you Who has it?

Thank you Who has it?

Here.... MEP-803 TM's


All of the available the 803 TM's are there. Need to hover your mouse over the various parts of the post for the different TM's

Has anyone extended the exhaust on 803 ? Need to run thru a roof

 

[kloppk]

I run mine out the window in my garage when testing products.
I used Walker 40001 flexible exhaust hose.

How many feet did you run it?

 

[kloppk]

About 6 feet.
It's just a temporary setup I use in the winter so I don't have to test products out in the snow and ice.

How many feet can be run before back pressure is a problem?

All you guys are amazing. Blows my mind the troubleshooting done thru this forum.
