[QUOTE="Spud, post: 6729417, member: 78"] Get it bought if it's the right price. Very many hedgecutter tractors (for example) will do very high hours without much of a sweat with little drama. Believe me, being underpowered on a genny causes many more problems than being overpowered. We have a Perkins phaser powered 95kva that runs our grading line. The same job used to be done by a 20kva with a 36000hr 3cyl iveco engine, and a 30kva on the PTO of our 3075. Both gave bother in the electrics, not the engines. Bigger one murmurs a bit when it first starts up, but that's it. Same genny also runs a borehole in summer. If an implement needs 100hp, what do you put on it, given the choice, 105 or 125hp? Exactly. [/QUOTE]
