IR Compressor Mounted

[JSFAB]

I will also mention, five years ago I bought two Champion air compressors, one for me and one for a customer, with the same Kohler engines. ANYTIME, we started these things, took multiple starts to get them running. Turns out it was connected to the oil pressure shutdown, for whatever reason, bad switch, too long to build up pressure, I don't know. The sensor is right next to the oil filter, just unplug a wire. Starts first time, every time now. I would assume, and hope, Kohler has fixed this problem since.

I haven't experienced that at all. I'll screw around with it this weekend and report back any abnormalities.....

Thanks

If you are posting that you are carrying haz-mat it MUST be on all 4 sides of the vehical. The DOT boys frown on not having the stickers all there. You should call your local HYway patrol and find out if ou even need them on a welding trailer.

Thanks for the tip.

The reasoning behind that was just to satisfy the safety department where I work. Those stickers and the placement satisfied them for our welding rig on base, and my trailer as well.

For 2.1 (Flammable) and or 2.2 (Nonflammable) Material the total weight of bottles and content under 1,001 pounds does not require placards. I don't understand requiring them on one side though, should be all sides or none at all. Nice looking rig.
