Tractor Run Generator Being Set Up to Milk Cows in Storm Outage

Here, Farmer John is pulling out and setting up the generator to be used at our dairy to milk cows during a power outage. We had a significant amount of rain and many trees down around us. We couldn't wait too long to milk and keep the tank cold, so we ran the generator until power was restored. We also had a photo shoot taking place on the same day a the same time that required power.
This is a heavy duty generator that works well for our farm. It is run by a PTO shaft. We are using a International 966 to operate it.
