Winco PTO Generator

   / Winco PTO Generator #2  
i have no experience with that particular model but i recently got rid of a winco i had used since 1972. it would put a timex to shame. abused is a mild statement. a couple oil changes and a plug in that time and it still ran.

Yes, good quality gear.

Nothing like a back-up for your back-up. Curious what the rotor speed is. Brush-less, I assume.

Very highly regarded. A 15K is on my shopping list.

I've had my Winco 15kw for quite a few years now, it's been 100% trouble free...

I've had my 12KW for since 2012, but have only tested it a few times.
Well even though noone responded to this thread for a price check I bought the Winco for $600 and the guy threw in a Wallenstein PTO shaft plus a decent mount.
He demonstrated it, it ran fine. Like many other purchasers of generators he bought it AFTER a major storm, and put hardly any hours on it.

I've got it, know how to use it but don't believe I need to run it every few months like my other "fueled" generators.

Before I bought it my research seemed to show they were tops in quality.

Gad they've become expensive.

You stole it! One thing is if is has brushes, but I think they were some of the first to have brush-less design.

But some would insist, that you need to load up that sucker regularly to heat up the windings and keep the bad effects of moisture at bay.

That's a 3600RPM generator, and I believe made in China. I think you're better off getting an older Winco, Katolight, etc. that is 1800RPM and made in the US... MUCH heavier duty units that will last a lot longer. I picked up a 25kw Katolight for $350, should never have sold it but I got $1200 for it.

Edited as I missed the fact that it comes with the $700 3-point hitch. So the price does look good for what it is.
