I would highly recommend getting manuals. I got a free seized Farmall M from my neighbor last fall (I was 15). For Christmas one of my uncles gave me a service manual, operator's manual, parts catalog, and hydraulic pump service manual.

In my opinion they are more trouble free than a generator and I personally like having all of my stuff 12 volt. I can get 12 volt batteries cheaper than 6 volt batteries.
