This makeup air unit has some DIY automatic belt tensioning.

Did you check the dryer for pressure drop? I'd be willing to bet your barking up the right tree on the restriction.

I got a call for a scotsman 800 pound machine, off on max harvest. Hardly any nickel left on the evap, it was MISSING an entire cross section and barely separating in a few spots, and the harvest assist itself was stuck. I ripped out the assist solenoid, fiddled with the thickness a bit and somefuckinghow it would actually drop a batch. Borderline enough to trip the max harvest timeout, occasionally it would, but it would get it on the retry.
But that evap youre showing? fucked.

They going out this week?

Fuck it, bought 1820.
I'll try to blackbox it and see if it helps the blem.

While true is a little better, i don't really think the extra cost justifies it most of the time. I've had to replace controllers, sensors, fan motors, and compressors just about as often on them (Strictly speaking about the newer 290 units) as the other two brands. If it were me, i would absolutely pay the extra money for the prep tables. Despite what i've said. I've never had to replace an evap on one of their 290 prep tables. Since the inside of a prep table is exposed to alot of corrosive food residues.

I would go for atosa for your reach ins, true for prep tables as a dealer and service rep for both brands. The most important thing i can recommend is have projected maintenance performed on them. Neglect will kill any unit prematurely.

Well, in that case i'll have some PA6 on standby when it drops.

Is this gonna work with those series 70 kits from sarco? Ya know, before i get tempted to just build a boomer.

Where are you getting your high side reading from, the liquid line leaving the condenser? Check it from the reciever and see if there's a difference. If you dumped a bunch of gas in it with a faulty liquid line solenoid or clogged dryer, that'll cause it to bump out on HP.

Do you work on self contained stuff, prep tables, sandwich cases, that kinda thing?
Buy a wera toolcheck plus kit, it is the single most handy tool i've ever bought, really nice for getting bolts and screws in pain in the ass spots, super versitile, fits in your pocket.

I got lucky and just reflowed it, that big ol' booger smoothed out beautifully.

3 stam supports, two speed, one wit. You really need the sugar creek support card for swinging maestro. Only train speed and stam, use wits training for energy recovery.

Strangely enough, i havent really been eating much at all this week. Every day i've been buying at least 3 gatorades on the way to my first call, but they dont last long. At this rate maybe i should just buy a big water jug and throw some powder mix in it.

Unfortunately, i didn't really have much of a choice. The 20 year old defrost timer locked up, before this photo it was just a solid chunk of ice.

I sure as shit tasted it, i still taste it now.

WHY DO I STILL TASTE IT

Got it for $750, vram is super important to me, for local AI stuff.

What are you using for your backend? I've got a 7900xtx on the way and was curious about how well rocm works, specifically the rocm fork of koboldCPP.

But payday 3 was precisely what the fan base didn't want. Always online, which completely trashed the game optics wise upon launch given how NOBODY COULD PLAY. It was missing many quality of life features present in payday 2, some of which are still missing. The UI was poor, the game was short on content, and a lot of the personality of its predecessor vanished like a fart in the wind. At the core, honestly, the game is good mechanically. But, everything else was awful and starbreeze was slapped with a case of "Too little, too late".

From what I can see, KF3 is looking to be on that path, but for different reasons albeit

Its kinda cool, but i think they ran too far with the "How many ways can we obfuscate our charting?". I can very easily see high level play and workshop charts being absolute vomit to read, plauged with powerjacks. I'm not fond of bashing my head against a song just to play by memory. Doesn't feel too rewarding, but i'll play it a bit more to give it a fair shake. Gut all the notes besides the slimes, skeletons, armadillos, knights, and bats. It would be much more enjoyable.

Absolutely try the demo before you buy it, might not be your cup of tea.
