Asleep yet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well wake up! The manual I found online for the counter is in Chinese so I really have very little understanding about how it really operates and I can only mess with it while the machine is on which is only when the generator is burning fuel. I hate standing in the workshop trying to figure something out while the generator is running. Like how much fuel did I waste?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today I decided to burn some fuel and play with the counter. I was able to enter a new screen where I can change the increments the counter counts by. I accidentally changed it to 10 and when I started the machine it started to count by 10&#8217;s! So I changed that from 10 to 1.5435. I ran the machine a bit and sure enough, 60 on the counter was 60&#8243; on the winder. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So now I can eventually change that to an even more useful number like feet or even meters. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The digital counter on the machine is kinda cool.
