Hello all, considering grabbing a Jet 3 in 1 brake/shear/roller. I know as a general rule mixing machine capabilities just leaves all functions less than great. Only doing minor panel replacement for body work. Question for anyone that has one. Rated at 20ga. I assume if only working with a...

There we go. That's a simple solution, didn't even cross my mind. Thanks Coogar

Nope. Has 120v running to the board all the time but just the typical 24v out/back to a T-stat for control. Runs on propane. Thanks, 1

Hey all, I've got a propane unit heater in my shop that the kids seem to leave on. My tank is 100 gallons so if I'm not out there for a couple days it can empty and not cheap to fill. I can see the shop from the house and want to put a light on the shop to see when the furnace is running. Is...

Update. Instead of hacking away with the plas I spent some quality time with my die grinder. Was able to grind out the bushings at the weld and remove without altering the original drilled hole. Replaced with 4" sections of 2" x 1/4" wall DOM that I had machined to fit my pins. Welded them in...

Pulled the arms and took some measurements. Pins are true and round and mic within a couple thousands of 1.500. The drilled holes in the arms are just a few thou over and hold the pins well. Sure enough the bushings welded in the upright tubes are as much as 60 thou over so arm and pin are...

Hello all, just installed a used Worth 9000lb 2 post lift in my home shop. The arms seem to sag a little. They don't bow or bend but do not stay square to the upright. I assumed the 2 plates that go over the tube had spread over the years but on measuring them they are the same at the inside...

Hello all, picked up a slightly used Worth 2 post lift the other day. Good deal but no install instructions. Can't seem to get a response from worth by email. Any chance one of you happen to have this lift and maybe some paperwork on them? I dug extra deep areas in my shop before my floor was...

Scsmith42: that was my original thought but when I revisited the machine I found that it would fill to around 130 from an empty tank, shut down, and then when tank pressure dropped to about 60 it would attempt to kick on and would then flip the breaker. This new info is what lead the forum to...

My machine does have an 1/8" NPT plug on the side of the HS head. I can utilize that if needed. I just have a hard time seeing why I need to do this, the machine was built to work as made without modifications. Not sure of the compressors age but I'm sure it worked as built for thousands of...

pics.

Ok. so I looked at the link from the 4wd forum. I have a very close looking pressure shut off valve but it does not have a line coming out of the bottom or a fitting for said line. I do not have any lines coming from my crank front plate. There is a manual valve at the tank, at the coiled line...

LOL... what I meant was that I have a different model than the ones with an unloader on the crankshaft. The only exploded view I found online had the cintrifugal unloader and the front plate had lines coming out. My front plate is solid (except the oil sensor). My tank says T30 and the...

finally back to my compressor trouble. So looked online and it seemed that there was an unloader on the end of the crankshaft. When I pulled the cover there was nothing there. I did find on the back of the pressure shut off switch is a thing that looks like a valve spring on an engine. Not sure...

Now that I say it out loud it sounds unreasonable. I've got 208v 3 phase in my shop and I found deal on a nice plasma cutter that only runs on 400/460 3phase. Is there some kind of converter I can use to run this equipment? Thanks, 1
