Hello All
I'm from down under.
I'm looking at buying a PTO generator for storm blackouts.
http://www.gentechgenerators.com.au/store/content.asp?PageId=9 (The Tractor Pac 20 in frame in 240v single phase
is the one I was looking at)
I've done research on this forum and other in regards to the pto generator vs gasoline powered sets and have worked out all the pros and cons in regard to my situation.
I am leaning to the pto side of things, but before I make my final decision could someone tell me how noisy these pto generators are.
I have run a pto generator/welder in the past, but the banshee wail of the cooling fan that cools the welding unit is not pleasant when parked at the house switchboard for hours on end.
Do these pto generator only units have the cooling fan as well? ( I haven't seen one working)
The tractor engine noise isn't such a problem, my David Brown 885 45hp is doing 1100 rpm with the pto in high gear to achieve 540rpm.
Regards
Dave from Western Australia
