I've had this thing for months, and still haven't touched it. Mounted up the genny tonite...kinda a two-fold deal. It's heavy as hell, and I'm planning to use the genny hitch to base a bracket for my suitcase weights off of. For now, the unit itself is my counterweight. Also, since the loader machine will see intermittent use, I thought it the perfect candidate for being a genny machine, if the need arises.
I got a tip from someone that a 71" belt works great for the FDT/RBT genny combo, and it is spot on. Problem is...NO JUICE.  I pulled the fuses, and will try new, but any other tips would be great! This thing is like brand new, and aside from a rust bubble or two on the belt cover, it looks unused. Even the hitch points still are unscratched. |

Maybe you just need to re-energize the generator.
With the generator running plug in a drill, with the drill in forward and the trigger depressed, spin the chuck backwards, be careful not to get your hand or clothing caught if the generator begins to make power. |

| Wel, the flash worked great! Lots of juice in that old genny, and the engine responds well to the loads i could find to put on it. Very impressed! A great piece of equipment. |
