What did you do today?
Sparky-(Admin) replied to Mickwhitt's topic in non tractor related discussion
Since flying back home my sleep pattern is all out of whack. Woke up at 4:45 this morning and knew going back to sleep wasnt an option (I usually sleep in til 6:30-7:00 on a Sunday). So I loaded my bike and taped a flashlight to my bike frame and hit the trails! Did 12.XX miles. Came up on a tree across the trail that would have been a painful wreck without the light. It only shone out maybe 12’ ahead of me, just enough I guess. -

Thank you, seems the factory broke its own rules their first year and most every year thereafter. Guess that explains why the numbering system went away after 1967, confused themselves too much. I knew there would some corrections to this, I will update it my list awaiting future changes needed next time.

Almost looks like it's gonna need it's own trailer!

Make sure the short wire underneath the regulator that goes to the gen is broken.

The newer (cost reduced) regulators no longer have the nice screw adjustments. Instead, you have to bend the spring mounting tab to lengthen or shorten the springs to adjust to suit. A tedious process as a little is usually too much!

Starter generator not charging.

This older Kohler service manual has a section on the starter/generator -
Hey yall. So I have a wheel horse b80 with a kohler k181s with a starter generator. (the engine was swapped at some point by the previous owner) the engine runs great, it starts up good, but its not charging, I have it all hooked up right, but its not charging enough to matter. I was just wondering do any of you know any problems I could be having, and how to go about fixing them. Thank you all.

What I really love about that clip above, and I wasn't there that time, but the infamous Fender #1 broke a string and he didn't miss a beat. Just called for the next in the stable and kept on workin'. Love it!

Got a picture of my dirt working team. The Massey tears things up and makes a mess with the backhoe and bucket, while EJ the 8n smoothes over with a boxblade or grader blade. The hydraulic controls on the Massey are nowhere near as smoother and accurate as the excavators and track loader i have rented. I'm still low in the learing curve on the Massey. I was pleased to discover today that EJ's grader blade has a tilt adjustment on it. Two positions either side of level - maybe 5 and 10 degrees. I shot the adjustment bolts with PB Blaster with hopes of figuring out how that adjustment works tomorrow. Update on EJ's damaged axle threads. I got a die to chase the threads, but don't have a handle for it. The die started on by about a turn, but I didn't force it any further for fear of cross threading it. The adjustable thread chaser I borrowed would require removal of the wheel and hub. Too hot today and not enough time on this trip for that. Same story on the thread file. That left the 2 piece squeeze nut. The instructions said the threads didn't need to be chased, so I tried it. It went on about 2 turns by hand, then needed a wrench to go the rest of the way. Once bottomed, I was able to tighten it with a bounce or six on the end of a 3' cheater bar. I probably got close to the 450 lbft called for. We'll see how long it stays tight with use. In any case, this repair is a band aid to get me a to a spot where I can put a new hub and axle in it.

I finally got it figured it after a bit of diagnosing. I think it turned out to be simply bad plug wires. Sigh...

It would depend on which side the pin sheared on. Both are 1.25" long but one is 3/16" and one is 5/32" best I can tell. Click on the fuzzy pic below to download the manual for that machine.
