DESCRIPTION
The WINCO rotating field power take-off generators are de-
signed 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 specifications.
This generator may be mounted in many different fashions. The
three most popular are foundation mounted, trailer mount or 3-
point hitch mounted, for used as a standby or portable electrical
power source. 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 mainte-
nance problems, the coupling between the generator input shaft
and rotor consists of precision helical gearing rather than a chain
link drive. The input shaft is a 1 3/8 in. diameter 6 spline shaft.
The factory thoroughly tests each generator before shipment. All
are continuous duty rated.
IMPORTANT:
THE MANUFACTURER STRONGLY RECOMMENDS RUN-
NING 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.

UNPACKING
CAUTION: Equipment Damage
DO NOT invert generator during unpacking. The Gearcase con-
tains oil which will leak out if inverted during unpacking.
Unpack the generator as follows:
1. Remove the carton.
2. Examine the unit for damage.
3. Find the small subpack carton packed in the large car-
ton. Be careful not to throw away the subpack carton
with the large carton.
4. Open the subpack carton and make sure it contains:
a. Generator instruction manual
b. Load disconnect plug (disassembled, in bag)
5. Remove the four bolts which hold the generator feet to
the pallet.
6. Lift the generator from the pallet by means of the lifting
eye on the top of the generator.
7. Inspect the generator carefully for freight loss or dam-
age. If loss or damage is noted at time of delivery,
require that the person making the delivery make note
of the loss or damage on the freight bill, or sign the
consignee’s memo of the loss or damage. Contact the
carrier for claim procedures.
When loss or damage is noted after delivery, segregate the dam-
aged material, and contact the carrier for claim procedures.
“Concealed damage” means damage to the contents of a pack-
age which is not evident when the package is delivered by the
carrier, but which is discovered later. The carrier or carriers are
responsible for merchandise lost or damaged in transit. The
title to the goods rests with the consignee when the goods are
shipped FOB factory, and only the consignee can legally file
claims. Two years are allowed in which to file suit after a claim is
disallowed in writing by the carrier.
INSTALLATION
FOUNDATION MOUNTING
Mount the generator on a foundation if it is to be used as a
permanent or standby power source. See “TRAILER MOUNT-
ING” or “THREE POINT HITCH MOUNTING” if generator will be
used as a portable power source. When planning a foundation
consider the following points:
A. The foundation location should enable aligning the drive
shaft (tumbling bar) in a straight or nearly straight line between
the power take-off and the generator input shaft. Misalignment
must be less than 5 degrees during generator operation, even
though the mechanical design of the tumbling bar would allow
greater misalignment.
