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 final item that you are going to have to assemble/wire is the plug
that will be used to connect the generator to the manual transfer
switch. You should have found this load plug in a small box when you
unpacked the PTO generator. If you need additional plugs for multiple
sites you can order additional plugs from your Winco dealer, the part
number is “300137”.
WARNING: PERSONAL INJURY:
Disconnect power before wiring.
IMPORTANT:
Use copper wire only. Do NOT use tinned conductors. Sizing cable
- see NEC 400-5
Cord size: #4/4 conductor cord SO, 1.25” dia. max.
To assemble and wire the load disconnect plug, proceed as follows:
1. Strip outer jacket 2-3/4”.
2. Cut and strip leads to lengths specified for the particular plug.
3. Disassemble cable clamp and top cover.
4. Remove one blade at a time, insert the stripped end of the
appropriate colored wire designated above, and tighten the set
screw.
5. Fit blades through slots in bottom cover and push down until
home. Please note: Make sure blades are in correct slots and
oriented in accordance with the diagram above or you will not be
able to close the top cover fully.
6. Place top plastic cover over assembly and partially tighten the
bakelite assembly screw. Realign blades straight (so they fit into
the top bakelite housing properly) and tighten the assembly
screw.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
CAUTION:
Only qualified electricians should install electrical wiring. Wiring 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 manual
transfer switch must be installed to separate the generator and the
commercial power lines. The switch 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 the
generator when the generator is supplying power. See the following
diagrams.
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
A. The three point hitch must be attached to the tractor at all times
during operation.
B. When operating the generator the three point hitch and generator
must be sitting on flat level ground. All four deck pads must be in
constant contact with the ground at all times. This will reduce the
vibration in both the generator and the tumbling bar.
C. For safety the generator must be bolted to the three point hitch deck
using all four mounting bolts.

B. The foundation must be solid enough to absorb generator
starting and reflected load torque during operation.
C. The foundation surface should be flat.
D. Space is required around the generator for mounting
switching devices, making connections, and for servicing.
E. The generator mounting bracket must rest evenly and
firmly on the foundation. Install shims if necessary to even
out the foundation under the mounting pads then bolt the
generator firmly in place.
TRAILER MOUNTING
Mount the generator on a trailer if you plan to use it as a
portable power source. When selecting or building a trailer to
mount the generator, consider the following points:
A. The trailer construction must be strong enough to support
the generator.
B. The design of the trailer must enable the trailer to remain
stable during operation, and to resist tipping caused by
generator starting and reflected load torque.
WARNING: Personal Injury & Equipment Damage
TRAILER MAY TIP OVER AND CAUSE INJURIES IF
WHEELS ARE NOT SPACED FAR ENOUGH APART.
Optional Trailer Part Number TDM75
C. The trailer height and mounting position of the generator on
the trailer should enable aligning the drive shaft (tumbling bar)
in a straight or nearly straight line between the power take-off
and generator input shafts. Misalignment must be less than 10
degrees during generator operation, even though the mechani-
cal design of the tumbling bar would allow greater misalign-
ment.
D. The generator mounting area of the trailer bed should be
flat.
All four generator mounting pads must rest firmly on the trailer
bed. Install shims if necessary to even out the bed under the
mounting pads, then bolt the generator firmly in place.
WINCO THREE POINT HITCH
Optional 3-Point Hitch Part Number TPH240
WARNING: Personal Injury & Equipment Damage
WHEN USING THE 3-POINT HITCH ASSEMBLY ALL THREE
POINTS MUST BE ATTACHED TO THE TRACTOR. FAIL-
URE TO DO SO WILL CAUSE THE GENERATOR TO TIP
WHEN LIFTING IT DAMAGING BOTH THE T-BAR AND THE
GENERATOR.
A. The three point hitch must be attached to the tractor at all
times during operation.
B. When operating the generator the three point hitch and
generator must be sitting on flat level ground. All four deck
pads must be in constant contact with the ground at all
times. This will reduce the vibration in both the generator
and the tumbling bar.
C. For safety the generator must be bolted to the three point
hitch deck using all four mounting bolts
