If your generator has an auxilliary external 12v plug for battery charging etc., you could hard wire it to the back of the plug. That would be a 12v regulated source.
You can also consider one of these wireless hour meters.

Got the email quote from Cat today: $14,421.15, and that's for a genuine Trimble system. Maybe that includes installation too? It also includes $550.00 for calibration and training.
That's almost double from an Apache or Spectra system (which ironically are owned by Trimble).
I'm going to tell this gentleman that we need to talk.

Ocean shipping containers are kinda pricey for what you get (8' wide), but they are secure. You know you can also get 40' and 45' containers as well, but they are still only 8' wide (and that's the outside dimension).
Try these folks: Here, and here. There are tons more on the net.
But to answer your question, probably yes – if you take the sunshade off.

The tractor engine is SAE standard left hand rotation (LHR). The upper tang drive PTO is straight through so therefore turns at engine speed and rotation, counter-clockwise, viewed as if you were standing at the rear facing forward. The CBN series hydraulic pumps are co-designed to attach to this PTO with four mounting bolts. In this configuration the pump suction will be on the left side regardless if the pump drive gear is on top or bottom, and will run at engine speed.
The lower splined PTO has two speeds, 540 and 720 or 1,000 r/m which changes the speed and rotation (clockwise) from that of the engine's through gear reduction. In order for the splined PTO to produce the rated speeds, the engine speed must be increased proportionately. The “gearbox” is actually an overdrive transmission which also changes (increases) the speed and direction (counter-clockwise) of rotation of the pump. This closely, if not exactly, resembles the original four bolt mounting scheme in performance – the advantage is that it slips on and off of the splined shaft.
The Prince pump is much more robust and simply slips on and off the splined PTO shaft without the need for a transmission. In my case the pump stays on the PTO shaft all the time (it's kinda heavy), I just uncouple the quick-connect fittings, and disengage the PTO.

Any tractor repair shop or tractor dealer worth it's salt shouldn't have a problem with it, unless of course they are too busy working on their name brand machines that are broken down.

If you go the Prince pump route don't forget the reaction bar.
I also have a new extra rebuild kit for the HCA-7 PTO pump.
$30.00 plus postage. (all it contains is the two shaft seals and some O-rings). I believe that's a lot less than the going price.

You are a good neighbor to have.
I almost rented climbers yesterday for some high limbing, that's as far as I got. Haven't been in climbers since '63. You're right, some things are for the physically young.

Welcome Keill4,
The 14mm x 1.5 metric fittings won't cross over to any other ORFS fittings, they are simply what they are. Any of the dealers that support this site will have fittings and hose assemblies. Depending on where you live, parts can be only a day away.
Suggest you try:

Can I flood the injector with fuel…
No.
…and try to start the engine without damaging anything?
Yes, but be aware that unburned fuel washes away the lube oil from the cylinder liner walls, accelerating piston, ring, and liner wear.
