Re: (ET) Power Disconnect for an E12M

["Darryl McMahon" <darryl econogics com>]

Greg,
unless someone on the list can provide you with a surplus main 
disconnect switch, call Bill Gunn at Technical Service & Parts.
(608) 868-6228.  Bill is Mr. Elec-Trak.  I, and others, have 
purchased parts from Bill, and everyone I know that has dealt with 
him has been very satisfied.

Bill has both the original style disconnect, and a newer, somewhat 
larger unit.  The newer type costs a bit less, but seems more 
durable.  You will have to enlarge the hole in the casing to 
accommodate the slightly larger barrel of the newer switch.

The original on my ET had suffered a meltdown before I acquired it 
and had been removed from the tractor.  I found it in the parts box 
with the ET I bought.  After talking with Bill, I decided to go with the 
newer type.
