I had one of these a few years ago. It is a 3 phase any voltage up to 480 by strapping jumpers.

The unit (IMHO) is one of the worst designed HMVs I have ever seen! It has the gas tank up high and has to be fueled from the top. The batteries are mounted high, it has a narrow track and very short WB. It is VERY top heavy. I filpped mine! It was difficult to back it up even with a bulldozer due to the short wheelbase. It is very difficult to service the mag as it is almost against the bellhousing. There are thrust "buttons" on the cam and accessory (water pump/mag) shaft. If they are not kept adjusted, the shafts will move back and forth and take the seals out of the water pump and maybe even the pump housing.

What can I say nice about it....? Hmmm I got it for free and got more money when I sold it for the engine.
