A generator unit to be attached to a traveling vehicle that has a prime mover and a PTO shaft to transmit power from the prime mover, includes: a generator; an input shaft having: a first connector portion configured to be connected to the PTO shaft; and a second connector portion configured to be connected to a working device to be connected to the traveling vehicle; a transmitter mechanism to transmit, to the generator, power supplied from the PTO shaft, the power being inputted from the first connector portion to the input shaft; and an attachment frame having: an attachment portion to which the generator, the input shaft, and the transmitter mechanism are attached; and a mounting portion configured to be mounted to the traveling vehicle.

The controller that receives at least one sensor signal indicative of a measured profile of a particulate material within a storage tank of an agricultural system. The controller also determines whether a variation between the measured profile and a target profile is greater than a threshold value. The controller outputs a first output signal to a user interface indicative of instructions to inform an operator of a profile variation, outputs a second output signal to an agitator indicative of activation of the agitator, or a combination thereof, in response to determining that the variation between the measured profile and the target profile is greater than the threshold value.
