PTO generator.

why would anyone use the Toolcat to generate power, it would be far cheaper to have a stand alone generator on gas or diesel plus no wear and tear on the Toolcat, just my opinion

Convenience, cheaper price and not another engine to maintain.
We rarely have long power outages here, so I know the Toolcat will start and it would be easy to hook up to the PTO generator.

The good answer is, IF the pto can hold a constant speed then it will work, and I bet it will.

Exactly! This is what i was saying. Why would there be any reason to think it won't work? It is a standard 540 PTO with no restrictions given by Bobcat. If it was somehow not as reliable or didn't work as well as a mechanical PTO, wouldn't the manufacturer state that?
