The voltage output is adjustable but the owners manual doesn't tell you that. There is a screw that you can turn that raises or lowers the voltage. Usually when new they run about 120v then after they break in and are running slightly faster they tend to run 130+ volts.
I adjusted mine back down...

When you go from 1st in the main and 4th (OD)in the aux to 2nd in the main.....Put the aux in neutral first, slap the main into 2nd then put the aux into 3rd which is direct. This is the only time when upshifting that you move the aux first.

Once you get the input shaft going too slow and both boxes in neutral at the same time your done. You must completly stop ...

mack with a cummins shifting a 5&4
1957 mack with a 262 cummins b-75
chris1422
commented:
@SlackTastic . It's a 262 Cummins. It needs to stay between 1700 and 2100 rpm. If you run them below 1700 you will pound the liners and rod bearings out of it and over 2100 is revving it higher than it's designed for. Thats why they had so many gears. To have enough gears to allow the driver to k...

Dirt in my new Pennzoil
Bought a Jug of Synthetic Pennzoil from Walmart. It ended up haveing Dirt/grit in it.

commented:
It's just adative fall out. It's normal and all oil will do it. Most likely Moly. If oil sits a while before you use it you should shake the jug. Back in the 50's and 60's you would see oil cans upside down at the corner station. Many places would turn the can upside down every week to help keep ...

Underground gold mine
Working a gold placer deposit underground by hand. 96' vertical shaft with 800 ft. of tunnels used for evaluation.

I've been goofing off in an old Gold mine near me. It was still producing when L208 shut it down in 1942. I've spent the last 3 weekends single jacking a hole in a quarts vein and I'm barely into it. How they did it 100+ years ago is just amazing.
