Just a FYI I asked the local motor shop about re-winding the field coil for a PTO and the price was more than a new PTO. As Jon said the wire has a special coating on it. You would need the same size, type and length of wire to make it work properly. I'm not saying don't give it a shot just trying to give you some more info. If you decide to give it a try I will try to help as far as info is concerned. I used to have some contacts in the electric motor re-building industry back when I was in the quarry business.
