 Generators for Compact Tractors

i have had a pto generator for about 8 months, i have a 19 pto hp tractor and a 25 kw generac generator trailor mounted. here are some of my observations:1. you get about 1 kw per 2pto hp.2 with my tractor if i set the frequency at 60.7hz, with an average load when the refrig., well pump come on line there does not seem to be too much freq. variation below 59.6hz. frequency variation seems to be a better way of regulating your motor speed than voltage. you definately can not rely on the pitch of the motor to regulate pto speed. if you generator does not have a freq. meter built in (mine does)then i would buy one. multimeters with freq. measuring are about 50 bucks.3. the generator ties up your tractor so you cant use it for snow plowing etc.4. you dont have to service a generator motor.5. i have had my 3hp air compressor plugged into the generator and with the no load setting of 60.7 hz ther is a initial startup dip in frequency to about 59hz. 6. greater than plus/minus 2% frequency variation from 60hz can damage motors, electronics, etc.good luckal
