Hey all,
I took my lil 3cylinder kubota powered generator and tried to power my Clipper 29D seed cleaner. It just doesn't have enough gumption. I bought it last spring at a consignment sale in Strawberry Point, and the data sticker had been scraped off, so I don't know the output, but it had run my Clipper 47b without much sweat last year. I guess 3 hp is easier to start than 7.5 hp. It goes back on a sale very soon.
I was looking on the List and see a Power Tech generator for $1500. Seller knows absolutely nothing about it. He told me he thinks it's a 45KW, but his picture of the data plate clearly states 15KW. He said he bought it last year to run a spray foam rig, but then never got around to using it, and has since sold his foam rig.
Digging on the nets found me their site, and they're supposedly still in business. Are these a decent rig, or would I be buying a pig-in-a-poke genny that will be a boat anchor when it has a problem? if I got the right manual downloaded, it at least has a 4 cylinder Kubota diesel engine.
I'd prefer to find a good buy on a used Onan or Generac, but I'm a bit over-budget already and this is gonna be another setback.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
