Illustrated here - a practical and substantially constructed drive-up test tank to permit a complete check of the motor and rigging complex as an integral unit with a minimum of effort and time expenditure; thus avoiding the necessity of a separate motor check in the shop and a final check at water edge after installing the motor, the control and electrical rigging - no small item in itself in addition to the actual work performed.

Why not consider the installation for your own activity - make little problems out of big troubles and doing the job as simply and easily (economically) as possible -

1. by requesting the owner with problems to deliver his unit intact to your shop yard for diagnosis thereby eliminating needless and time consuming trips to dock side during the rush season when you can possibly least afford to break away.
2. by being in a position to check the motor and rigging complex simultaneously. The difficulty may not be with the motor/starter/generator assembly you know but in the controls and wiring system and as such readily accessible for quick diagnosis and corrective measure - a worth while saving to you and to your owner customer.
3. by conducting a check run on all newly rigged units in the tank - affords an opportunity to make the minor adjustments frequently required at this time - here again eliminating costly time consuming trips to dock side when perhaps a prospect may be waiting to see you.
