Or it could be 12,193.63 or 22,193.63
It was nice of them to put a completely unimportant digit on there and leave off an important one.
If that machine was one I took care of the +1,680 would be the way I would mark it saying add the reading on meter to the 1,680 to get actual hours.The “1,680” notation below it doesn’t seem too worn though, so I would think the 2,000 hour figure is correct. If it was 21,000 hours, the 1,680 would probably be worn off or unreadable
It also may indicate that the hour meter was replaced at 1,680 hours and that you need to add the two together to get the actual hours
And lets be real, there's no 22k hour towable air compressors out there, the folks running them make sure of that...
Had an IR machine come through a couple weeks ago for a no start. LOP switch had failed, so owner hammered a board of wood into the control panel to keep the safety bypass button held down. Ran it like that until one of the corroded spades on the bypass relay finally rattled off with the FSS wire. Installed a regular black plastic relay in it's place, got it running, and asked if they wanted the LOP replaced as well, "No thanks, that's what the board is for."On a rare case someone might check the oil between times the emergency shutdown kills it for low oil pressure.
Hope you made a note of that on the invoice for the repair so they don't come back and try to make you buy them a new motor when it fails due to no oil. You know it's going to, maybe not today or next week but some day!Had an IR machine come through a couple weeks ago for a no start.
