That's the way to go, Dana. We have one at work for lights, and it's on wheels to tow to the job site. This is perfect for a home generator, and it's not loud at all. Thanks for showing. Kenny
That is a very cool machine and it is great that you have the manuals. Our power is very reliable but we must setup our generator in a similar way to you
We have two both. Retired Navy units both 8 kw generato heads . We generally use the for area lighting at special events and have plans to convert the 4 1 kw metal halid light heads to led . By doing that we will end up useing approximately 1 kw for lighting and have anout 7 kw for other loads so I will also have to reconfigure the power distribution panel a little. For our purposes I feel it will be well worth the effort. Also we move ours light towers and all with a small mihindra tractor no problem.
would suggest adding some velcro the cable in the pack out, worst thing when its snowing/raining and need to go plug generator in and the plug falls into the mud/snow/dirt
Very nice! How many watts is the powerhead? Is it a low Rpm unit? Have you checked the Hz frequency under load? Wanted to suggest getting a rubber grommet where the cord goes through the packout box
It would definitely be easy to add a external fuel tank. Check out my newest generator video where I go in to this question and others. Thanks and have a great one

Very cool unit. Nice find, nothing wrong with that setup. Cheers Mike
Thanks 👍

We were out for almost 2 weeks last Sep, due to storms
That was a great purchase Dana, 500 hours is nothing 👍🏻. Have a great weekend 🙋🏼♂

That’s great thanks for sharing your story, glad to have you on the channel
Just because its military doesn’t mean its built well it means its the CHEAPEST OPTION, reliable enough, easy to maintain and transport
True made by the lowest bidder does not ensure quality. But in this case it is a great unit. Thanks for watching and have a great one

Excellent idea check out my new generator video where I add Velcro to the cord

Thanks check out my newest generator video where I answered some of you questions. No Hz meter here great idea to check for clean power 👍
Given how simple the fuel system is, you could probably fabricate an external tank from a 55gal drum.
It would definitely be easy to add a external fuel tank. Check out my newest generator video where I go in to this question and others. Thanks and have a great one
What make is the Diesel engine?
It’s a Mitsubishi
Biggest question I have is if you need parts where do you get them?????

Thanks for watching the generator is a 6kw
Have a great one

How much wattage does it make?
6000 watts thanks for watching 👍
You shouldn't use male connectors for generators.
Actually you should the interlock makes it safe thanks for watching
The male was on the cord as it should be
