TRRI speaker impedence

You all been a motherload of info, here's another question.

I have a 2005 TRRI custom 15. Back panel has internal & external speaker jacks, parallel speaker jacks, 85 watts, 4 ohm total.

I ordered a motion sound SRV-212 rotary speaker 4 ohm.

Can I unplug 15 inch cab speaker of TRRI (which is a 4 ohm speaker) and plug 4 ohm rotary speaker cabinet into internal speaker jack without any problems? There was something in the 6 page manual about needing a load I think they meant. I don't see the difference between 4 ohm loads but figured better ask first.

I use a 35 Cowtipper head&cab as main amp. I want to work towards stereo set up. Maybe use the rotary as third amp/cab on one side. Will the difference between 35 & 85 watts detract from what I'm trying to achieve?

That should work fine. Just don't ever run the amp without a speaker plugged in.

Thanks Scott, A dumb simple question, the kind I would find out later to make some difference if I hadn't asked, ha.
