  1. Thanks for all the help and advice. I ended up having an electrician put a converter in.
  2. Found out that I only have single phase.
  3. Not anywhere close. It's in town, so I'm not sure which line I'm tied to.
  4. I bought a building a few years ago and it already had an air compressor wired in. I've recently installed a car hoist, but don't have it wired yet. It has a 3 phase motor, but I don't know if the building has 3 phase. Is there a way I can determine what the building has?
  5. Thanks! Looks like the only part I'm missing is the grille panel.
  6. I got a 100 and want to put headlights in. I think I have some of the parts, but not sure what all is needed and how they go together. If you could share some pictures, it'd be appreciated.
  7. Got the solenoid and switch wired, and had full power to the starter, but didn't make a difference, so I borrowed the starter from the H and it cranked over and started fine. Must've been a combination of issues.
  8. It is already 12v. The one I have pictured above is what I run in my old Ford I6.
  9. I actually got one on my grandpa's standard M, but the shaft on this SM is stuck in the front casting.
  10. I actually used a small prybar to push it just to make sure that wasn't the issue, and it didn't make a difference.
  11. I'm talking about the starter button that you push with the foot lever. Not sure what magnetic Ford switch you're talking about. What if I wired a basic solenoid and a push button like in these pictures?
  12. Might just have to cobble a bracket with the two studs to jump with a screwdriver 😄
  13. What would be causing starter buttons to burn up? Got negative to ground, positive to one side of starter button and starter cable on the other side of the button. That's how it was when I got the tractor and seemed to work fine until one day it was cranking hard and seemed like either the battery was weak or the starter wasn't engaging all the way. I took the starter off and tested it with the battery charger. Bendix didn't seem to kick out all the way, so I swapped the starter with one that seemed to work alright. I put it in, tried starting it, and it didn't even wanna try. So, I ran a test light on both sides of the button. The side to the battery lit up fine, but the other side when I push the button barely lights up and makes the switch smoke. I'm obviously not getting enough power through the switches somehow. I've tried 4 different switches on it plus bench tested their resistance. Two were junk, one was sporadic and the new one was obviously good, but not letting the power completely through. Not sure what else would be the problem other than a bunch of junk switches.
  14. Got it made. Just have to get a U bolt tomorrow.
