cripp Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 I've got hold of a generator that the owner says is war time vintage. Can anyone here identify it and give me some advice on how to fix it up? There are a few markings on it. This appears to be the output point Any advice or tips appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Hi Cripp, You have a Tiny Tim auxillary charging set, as used in certain Churchill, Challenger and Cromwell tanks of the late war period. It is 12 volt, 300 watt output. If you want to know any more let me know. Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripp Posted July 8, 2006 Author Share Posted July 8, 2006 Thanks Richard. I'd like to know more about it. Mainly how to get it working again and if I can find any manuals on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurstevens Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 I too would like to know more, is there a handbook available as I have a rather distressed sample. Arthur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Cripp and Arthur, I can photocopy a manual for you, around 22 pages for the cost of copying and post. It will have to wait until after Beltring week though......I am sure it is not that urgent :-) The Tiny Tim was designed to replace the Delco aux gen sets in the tanks listed in previous message. The manual consists of; description and specification complete list of part numbers for installation kit installation instructions for the three tanks Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripp Posted July 10, 2006 Author Share Posted July 10, 2006 That would be great Richard. Let me know the cost and I'll sort you out. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Cripp, On a closer read, the booklet is fitting instructions for the various tanks, with only a few details on starting and running plus description and data. No strip down info. If you are still interested....... Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripp Posted July 10, 2006 Author Share Posted July 10, 2006 I'll have a look around at Beltring and see if I can find anything. If not I'll get back to you afterwards about it. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurstevens Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Richard I would still like to have the document, let me know how much and where to send the money. Best wishes Arthur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
