I used a Gentec torch for several years working at a heavy equipment dealer and we never had a problem . The welders were the only people to get the victor torches . Install the safety valves on the torch and regulators for a safe setup .

The compressor was shipped from the factory with a check valve . I removed the vent for the high idle valve , I then installed a 1/8 compression fitting and connected it to the unloader with a 1/4 copper tube . I will get some better pics tonight .

I used a 5 horsepower marathon 1750 RPM motor and a two grove 8 inch pulley . I drilled and taped the original gas engine mounting plate . I was able to place the motor to allow me to use the original v belt .

Done the same conversion this summer. It's holding up well , I have it connected to a 60 gallon tank for a total of 90 gallon capacity .

I had the same problem , I had both sides adjusted with the same number of threads showing below the lock nut . I had to adjust the nut opposite the power side about 5 more threads to get both locks to engage at the same time . Hope this helps .

I have the same lift and went with the wide set up , still can be tight getting out of my 2500 HD .

I have had mine since mid April , handles my diesel 2500HD easily .

With my experience Generac doesn't hold up as well as other brands . I have seen several of the GM 4.3L units fail the exciter at low hours resulting in 6000.00 dollar repair . I have had a lot of trouble with the controls failing .

I have repaired generators for the past 26 years , Generac would be my last choice .

On my XRP-10 the fitting were 3/8 JIC where the lines attach to the fittings. .

I bought a XRP-10 last month , the hydraulic unit was damaged in shipment . I called Summit Racing who contacted Bendpak while the freight truck was still on site , a claimed was filed and I had the new hydraulic unit with in one week . Bendpak needs to step up and support their product .

Your local Caterpillar dealer stocks roloc discs and mandrels .

40x50x16 . I live in South West Virginia which doesn't have flat ground so I worked on moving dirt with my skid steer for two months . I put 79 hours on the skid steer and still not finished moving dirt .

I started clearing the land and excavation in September, started moving in today.
