Hi - New to this forum and also the Galion 160 I just bought. The serial number reads 160CMD01031. It has a Cummins motor in it. I assume this grader was made back in the early 50's. The motor does run, and most of the hydraulics work.
When I bought it, the generator had been removed due to a bad bearing. All of the wiring has been bypassed / disconnected. I would like to get the instrument panel and gauges working again as well as the generator.
I have rebuilt the generator - it is a Delco 1106805, which is a 12 volt. Stamped on the starter motor, it says 24 volt, so I am therefore confused. Did they really use 24 volts for the starter and 12 volts for the rest of the system, or have some wrong parts shown up here? I have not been able to find an operation manual or wiring diagram for this grader.
Also, are there any basic manuals available for the Cummins motor? I would like to find a list of capacities and what all the various filter numbers are. Stamped on the Cummins block is a number: 10442-2 IS this the motor ID, or do I need to look somewhere else for that? Any guidance you can provide this Galion newbie would be greatly appreciated!
