If the mobile generator set includes an extended shaft,
allow adequate space at the generator end of the set for
an adapter, flexible coupling, and the operating
equipment.
The mounting flange conforms to
SAE J609a, Flange B. See Figure 2-1 for dimensions.
Note: Customers must provide the adapter and flexible

Figure 2-2 shows a Kohler mobile generator set
mounted to a hydraulic pump.
The generator set
equipped with the extended-shaft option can power
external equipment to the limit of the engine’s capacity.
Note: The output shaft can pull max. horsepower. The
extended shaft is designed for powering a
direct-driven hydraulic pump.

Note: Adding a hydraulic-pump drive lowers the engine
horsepower available to drive the generator.
Therefore, the engine can be overloaded. Be
aware of reduced generator output when
powering external equipment.
