Power Tech removal from 1994 U300

August 05, 2013, 02:37:31 pm

A neighbor wants to reinsulate the generator compartment on his 1994 U300. Wondering if anyone knows of a blow by blow procedure for removing the genset from the compartment. Coach is outside on a concrete pad - surrounded by grass. No heavy lifting equipment presently available.  Would a big transmission jack handle to load ?

Thanks

Transmission jacks look too narrow for a secure lift but this motorcycle lift with a couple of steels straps might work: 1500 Lb. Lightweight Aluminum Motorcycle Lift $175 is not much against what it would cost if it fell.

Harbor Freight has two to select from.

A 4 wheel, two that swivel, hydraulic lifts, 1000 & 1500 Lbs capacity. I use it to move heavy stuff like work bench's around the shop.
Have loaned it out to fellow Foretraveler to move refer out and back in.

less than $150.00, when on sale.

Original was purchased when I thought I was going to have to remove the Kobota.
