Using the instructions from mm08822, the motor starts for about .5 to 1 second before the vfd say "No way". After 30 degrees of rotation, the vfd displays "Err 10". Which translate to the motor pull to much current. Maybe I made a mistake with the P1 values. But after I bought the 10 hp...

The original pump has a impressive failure. The counter weight failed, high pressure piston came out of its bore, and the crank repeatedly tried to put it back in.

It has been discussed before and I know this is not the recommended solution. But, here I am again, taking the more difficult path. I bought a large Ingersoll Rand two stage air compressor as a project. It has a 10hp 3phase motor. To convert my 1 phase 220v shop power to 3phase, I...

I was looking to buy a replacement last night but haven't found any options. I have found Ash handles for files. But nothing for a monkey wrench. I was going to make one but the tapered bore is beyond my skill set.

They're probably better and easier ways, but this is what I came up with. Sorry the pictures didn't post in the order I expected. .

Thanks for the suggestion. The not is reverse threaded.

The slot is 2mm.

Cleaned up a bit. I will work on the nut next week.
