looks rather nice in here...it has 200amp main breaker and rated continuous

nice shot of whole deal

nice how pto gear box is right at shaft not much to go out of balance on ....generator turns fine ...

ok time to post anything you can about trouble shooting this rig .... :thanks:

Cool Joe!! It looks like it has a gear reduction box already on there. Find out the ratio and maybe the Wing engine will work fine!

Looking forward to this one.

Odd to have the load conductors go back into the control panel.

It all looks heavy duty and nice portability.

don,t forget..windmills,air is free,and have 2 pto setups? just a thought..tom :music:

Did you ever get that power line sorted out? Is this the fix?..I was thinking wind and water but a good ol` diesel would work pretty well too, lots of surplus engines out there but I wouldn't use a gas engine.
By the way , that gear reduction look like you just need to have it at an idle.

Brand and model number search should turn up info on it like rpm etc.

Should also state the rating for standby and continuous use. Not sure, but I think that is a Marathon alternator frame.

Not sure where my other posts went so I'll try again... Joe, what am I looking at and what is/will it be used for? It's not obvious to everyone(well me at least).

~O~

 

[joedrum]

its a electric generator .. in times of no power this can provide power ...from a tractor pto ... is it a off the grid deal ...it could be ..its better power than on grid where i live ....it was bought right but also as is ..and the other guy couldnt get it running so ...its a gamble

 

[jpwinger]

Just needs it to run the coffee pot and toaster..... :smilie_happy:
If nothing else, it would make a killer welder. What do you plan on using to run it, Joe? A 'Wing engine might not have enough grunt to keep that thing twisting when under a load.... :headscratch:

 

[joedrum]

well the obvious and really what its set up for is a nice 150 hp tractor ....it would be no toy power station ...hmmmmmmmm thats cool apple.....so thats what these plug ins are welder hook ups....yep i bet it can weld LOL :hihihi: :thanks:
