One of my vacuum timers did not have power so I checked it out and something had blown the breaker. I checked the vacuum motors and one smelled like melting plastic and the other smelled fine. So I replaced the stinky motor and everything worked great!
I stocked my vending machine today. Nothing much else happened today besides cleaning some bays.
Kink in the foam brush hose. I just replaced the hose. The hose is really cheap and I would never purchase this crap again. I actually got it from my Dad.
I know one thing about opening a Coleman vacuum with a drill and that’s that you will not be doing it with a battery power drill. What a pain! Only 3-4 more to go. Actually Greg drove by today and I am going to try some of his suggestions first: TNT, jackhammer or wrecking crane.
Wow that sucks! My Abus lock key broke in the Coleman vacuum today. What makes it worse is I only had one key and I have 3-4 more locks keyed the same. Man I am stupid and no I do not have the key number. Anyone have any hints on drilling out Abus locks without keys in them let me know.
Maybe it is not really a Charter problem because they outsource their install services to Communications Unlimited Cable Services, but this is a little ridiculous.
Today I tested all the three phase legs and they all checked out fine.
My motor starter looks like one of the legs fried? One wire melted (first picture) and the terminal in the contactor melted (second and third picture) and it also blew my three phase breaker. My question is: What do you think the problem is? Is it just the motor starter? Pump motor? Who knows what the problem is? I guess I will know after I check the voltages and replace the contactor like Greg suggested.
sprecher & schuh CA7-16-10 (contactor)
sprecher & schuh CEP7-M32 Ser-B Current range – 12-32A Trip class -10 (overload protector)
22 degrees? I guess that is what the problem is? Maybe I need to get a new probe for the Weep Mizer so it can register the correct temperature?
I finished off the side weed eating today. It was fun.
