WARNING: EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Never use acid core solder. When soldering insure no
excess solder runs down on the contact surface - Solder
on the contact surface will not allow the contacts to
mate properly causing them to burn up.
Each wire should be stripped back 7/8 of an inch and
inserted into one of the contacts in the plug kit. You will
then either need to solder them together using a good
grade of resin core solder or they can be crimped with an
appropriate compression crimper or both.
Approved crimping tools are:
1. Anderson Power Products
2. ETC Model HHS hydraulic crimper
3. ITT Blackburn No. 1640
4. Thomas & Betts #TBM5
To complete the assembly of the disconnect plug refer to
the instruction sheet of the plug kit.

DESCRIPTION
The WINCO PTO drive generator will provide, depending on
the unit purchased, 120/240V single phase, 120/240V three
phase, 120/208 three phase or 277/480 three phase 60Hz
electrical service when direct-driven. Tractor or vehicle power
take-off shafts, can be used for driving these generators.
NOTE: The prime mover which drives the generator must be
capable of delivering approximately 2 HP per 1000 watts
output from the generator. Observe input RPM specifications.
The generator may be foundation mounted for use as standby
power source, or trailer mounted, and used as portable
electrical power sources for areas where commercial power
is not readily available, such as out buildings.
This generator includes an Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR)
which maintains a constant voltage output and a Frequency
meter to insure the unit is producing 60 Hz power. All the
models (except the 480 volt units) have a control panel with
two output power receptacles, and overload protection circuit
breakers, and most models are equipped with a full load
disconnect plug (not applicable on the 135, 145 and 150 kW
models) To reduce maintenance problems, the coupling
between the generator input shaft and rotor consists of
precision helical gearing. The input shaft is 1-3/4 in diameter
20 spline .
The factory thoroughly tests each of these generators before
shipment. All are continuous duty rated.
IMPORTANT: THE MANUFACTURER STRONGLY RECOM-
MENDS RUNNING THE GENERATOR UNDER LOAD AT
LEAST ONCE A MONTH IN ORDER TO EVAPORATE ANY
ACCUMULATED MOISTURE CONDENSATION
UNPACKING
CAUTION: Equipment Damage
DO NOT invert generator during unpacking. The Gearcase
contains oil which will leak out if inverted during unpacking.
Unpack the generator as follows:
1. Remove the crate.
2. Examine the unit for damage.
3. Find the small subpack carton packed in the large carton.
Be careful not to throw away the subpack carton with the large
carton.
4. Open the subpack carton and make sure it contains:
a. Generator instruction manual
b. Load disconnect plug (disassembled, in bag)
5. Remove the four bolts which hold down the generator feet
to the pallet.
6. Lift the generator from the pallet by means of the lifting eye
on the top of the generator.
7. Inspect the generator carefully for freight loss or damage. If
loss or damage is noted at time of delivery, require that the
person making the delivery make note of the loss or damage
on the freight bill, or sign the consignee’s memo of the loss or
damage. Contact the carrier for claim procedures.
When loss or damage is noted after delivery, segregate the
damaged material, and contact the carrier for claim proce-
dures.
“Concealed damage” means damage to the contents of a
package which is not evident when the package is delivered
by the carrier, but which is discovered later. The carrier or
carriers are responsible for merchandise lost or damaged in
transit. The title to the goods rests with the consignee when
the goods are shipped FOB factory, and only the consignee
can legally file claims.

Assembly
The only assembly work required after unpacking the genera-
tor is to assemble the load disconnect plug, which is con-
tained in a bag in the subpack carton packed in the generator
crate. NOTE - The 135kW, 145kW and 150kW units do not
ship with disconnect plugs and must be hard wired to the
main line circuit breaker.
The bag contains an instruction sheet, 2 plug bodies, four
contacts, a handle and the hardware to assembly the
disconnect plug. You will need to purchase the appropriate
length of fine stranded copper wire for your application in order
to complete the assembly of the disconnect plug.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
CAUTION
Only qualified electricians should install electric wiring.
Wringing must conform to all applicable national, state,
and local codes. (Reference: National Fire Protection
Association Manual No. 70, National Electrical Code.)
DANGER: PERSONAL INJURY
If the generator is to be used as a standby power
source, a special disconnect switch must be installed
to separate the generator and the commercial power
lines. The disconnect must isolate the generator
from the commercial power lines and the load when
the generator is on standby, and must isolate the
commercial power lines from the load and generator
when the generator is supplying power.
A properly rated and installed double throw manual
power isolation transfer switch must be used with a
standby generator. The transfer switch isolates the load
from the power line and allows you to safely operate
your loads without endangering the power line repair
crew. See previous diagrams
The load, connected to the normal terminals of the
transfer switch, is energized by the normal power line
when the switch is in the normal position. The generator,
connected to the emergency terminals of the switch,
furnishes power when the switch is in the emergency
mode position.
There are two ways to install a manual transfer switch.
The first is to install the switch between the watt-hour
meter and the normal distribution panel. As with any
system you must install an entrance rated breaker before
the manual transfer switch. The manual transfer switch
must in all cases be equal to or greater than the rating of
the entrance rated breaker.
The second way to install the system is to purchase and
install an emergency distribution panel and move the
circuits you wish to back up to the new distribution
panel. In this case the manual transfer switch only has
to be sized to the amperage of the circuit breaker in the
main distribution panel that is feeding it.
Before deciding which system to install, first determine
which loads you can safely run on your PTO generator
and the cost of buying a large manual transfer switch
versus the cost of a smaller switch and the additional
distribution panel.
The only assembly work required after unpacking the
generator is to assemble the load disconnect plug, which
is contained in a bag in the sub-pack carton packed in
the generator crate.
NOTE: The 145kW and 150kW units do not ship with
disconnect plugs and must be hard wired to the main
line circuit breaker.
The bag contains an instruction sheet, 2 plug bodies,
four contacts, a handle and the hardware to assembly
the disconnect plug. You will need to purchase the
