[QUOTE="fendtfiasco, post: 6772781, member: 81828"] What tractor are you running it on, 540 or 1000 speed not all tractors keep a steady pto speed. Independent or dual clutch ? Had a pto generator years ago 20 kva NJ Froment run by a Massey 135 ran up to speed and you wanted the light steady and not flashing ,if the load increased governors opened up to keep the speed steady ran well. Once a neighbour put their 956 Turbo on it no problem, dry clutch steady drive. A friend had a pto generator tried to run it on a Massey 398 possibly 1000 pto to save diesel but it wouldn't run steady up and down, put it onto their Massey 165 it was perfect. The reckoning was the dry clutch pto on the 165 and my 135 had a more constant speed than the oil pto or independent as it was called then on the 398 which varied a lot more. It was the tractor not the generator. [/QUOTE]
