Q: What is the advantage of having a voltage regulator? What happens if I don't have a voltage regulator? by Bill from Wisconsin on February 10, 2011
A: In most cases a voltage regulator will help you be able to detect or prevent surges, but the one guiding factor in something like this would be the level of harmonic distortion. With the Volt Master PTO generators, the harmonic distortion is going to be very low, so a voltage regulator would be an added item and not always needed. by Jim, Product Expert
Q: Sleeve or roller bearings in the PTO gearbox of the IMD PTO10-2SAVR? by Dave from Pennsylvania on January 22, 2011
I purchased this unit to power my home in an emergency. I did not want a chinese made brand. While IMD may be an American company, the generator, gearbox and drive-shaft are all made in Italy. The only US part of the setup is the 3 point bracket. All this being said, Everything from the purchase, packing, delivery and assembly was flawless and easy. And it works superbly. My Kubota B2320 drives it easily, and it powers my whole house including my well pump. All in all I'm still quite happy.

My New PTO 10-2SAVR
Once my generator was delivered, I was surprised on how small it was. I was almost discouraged by its size until I picked it up. I then felt, by its weight, that I had purchased quality.
After I unpacked the generator I built my frame using 2” x 2” x ¼” angle iron (extra heavy duty), bolted the generator onto it and cut the drive shaft to the correct length. Next I filled the gearbox with gear lube and connected it to the tractor. I then started my tractor, engaged the PTO and watched all of the lights on the LED meter light up.
I increased the RPM’s on my tractor and watched the lights on the hertz meter light up to the green light. It was easy to figure out that the green light on the Hertz meter indicates the correct RPM’s. Lastly I plugged in a grinder just to test it, and perfect. Now I have to light a fire under my electrician to get the house wired and hope the power goes out.
I am extremely satisfied with the quality of my new generator. I spent a little more on this one because it is made here in the US and am glad that I did. The quality of the materials used and the workmanship were well worth the added cost.
