Generator Mounted

[cschannuth 3,816]

Well I finally had some time to get the generator mounted. One of the POs had modified it to fit an earlier tractor so I I took it apart and mounted it on the plate in the factory slots. They also modified the undercarriage but that actually made it sit higher off the ground on the 161 and 314 so that was a good thing.  A new belt and it was ready to go. 

 

It works really well but I was surprised how much it dragged down the engine on the 314 when engaging the PTO. The 161 didn't even notice it was there. The 314 is so much quieter and more efficient though I'll still probably use it on that tractor if the need arises.

I like that setup, Craig. I'm sure that'll come in handy.
