INTRODUCTION
SPECIFICATIONS
The WINCO rotating eld power take-off generators are designed
primarily for hobby/small farm use as a standby electrical power supply,
utilizing the power take-off of a tractor or truck as the prime mover.
This PTO drive generator will provide 120/240V single phase, 60Hz
electrical service when properly driven.
NOTE: The prime mover which drives the generator must be capable
of delivering approximately 2 HP per 1000 watts output from the
generator. Observe input RPM specications.
This generator may be mounted in many different fashions. The three
most popular are foundation mounted, trailer mount or 3-point hitch
mounted. Your application will dictate how you may want to mount it.
This generator includes a color coded voltmeter to warn against high
or low voltage, and two output power receptacles with individual
circuit breakers for your protection. To reduce maintenance problems,
the coupling between the generator input shaft and rotor consists of
precision helical gearing rather than a chain link drive.
IMPORTANT:
THE MANUFACTURER STRONGLY RECOMMENDS RUNNING THE
GENERATOR UNDER LOAD AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH IN ORDER
TO EVAPORATE ANY ACCUMULATED MOISTURE CONDENSATION
AND TO KEEP THE UNIT IN GOOD WORKING ORDER.
