Wire 3 Chorehorse mount

[Jordan Baker]

I believe that on the Wire3 the Chorehorse was hard mounted to the truck and that why it had the cover shown in the photos. I also believe as pointed to in my first post that you can make out the flexible exhaust hose running beside the fuel tank.

The following pictures are from a 8cwt wireless truck and clearly show the CH1-395-4 Canadian model chorehorse hard mounted to a bracket. They also show the flexible exhaust hose being run from the generator along the back wall of the cab and down to the frame with the muffler right beside the exhaust pipe for the truck.

Further more being hard mounted would mean the wiring could all be run to the C5 charging board and batteries. This would mean that the only setup would be starting the generator and changing some knobs on the charging board.

One other point I noticed in the wartime chorehorse manual is that it appears the CH1-395-4 Canadian model didn't come with any oil bath air filter. There is no mention of it in the text or the parts diagram. Whereas the CH1-395-5 British model specially mentions that it comes with one.
