The point is... that with an 85 HP tractor and a fully loaded generator, it won't work unless the generator is overspeeded. Most 85 HP tractors will produce mabey 40 hp at a fast idle, which is where it would need to run for 540 with a 1000 shaft. The 806 might do it OK because it's a 95 horse tractor that in all probability made more anyway without accounting for the smoke screw getting backed out about 20 percent... so couple that with a generator not fully loaded and you get away with it.
The fact that you can do anything with a 25 HP tractor on a 25KVA gen tells me you had no laod on it at all. I sometimes run ours on a 45 hp tractor for light loads of short duration and it works it hard. The 50 hp can handle it at full power but it's working very hard. We generally stick our 86 HP rated (turned to 105 hp) for long hauls. Start a 4 horse compressor with some other loads on the go and it wakes her up too. She's not working hard but the sudden load will make her jump. If that was at idle speed she'd be down for the count.
