This manual covers the latest compact portable tractor driven Power Take Off (PTO) generator set model from Winco.
This 15,000 watt generator, is designed to provide120/240V single phase electrical power for standby and utility
service when commercial power interrupted, inaccessible or impractical. This PTO unit has a cast iron gear cases with
a 1-3/8” – 6 spline, 540 rpm input shafts and brushless, heavy-duty 3600 rpm, 2 pole, low waveform distortion genera-
tors.
This compact PTO generator units is designed to provide reliable electrical power for customers who already have a
compact utility tractor with 24 to 40 horsepower and a 540 rpm PTO shaft. The PTO unit is a cost-effective way of
providing needed electrical power without the cost or added maintenance of a dedicated drive engine. Primary applica-
tions for these PTOs are for infrequent or medium duty loads where the unit will normally be operated less than 50
to100 hours per year. Typical uses might be for farm, ranch or home standby or portable field power away from
convenient utility or where running an extension cord is impractical. The compact PTO units are built to last, but are not
intended for prime power (continuous or sole source) applications.
