Better Than Expected

Set up was very easy with little effort. Simply snap the clips to connect the battery. Slide the wheels into position and clip the pin. easy.
I am using propane, so i attached the propane connector and started up on first push of the button.
One item to note is the remote fob was attached to the pull cord of the engine. So at fist glance i thought it was missing. It was not.
We are excited to put this to use!

Great Back Up Dual Fuel Generator

I bought this last month, set-up was a breeze. It is very heavy but with the wheels on it's easy to move it around. This will be ready for hook up to the transfer switch installed to my mother's new house, finger crossed when the power goes out. The remote start is also a plus and will be trying it with propane gas first.

Initial run
on September 10, 2020

from Russellville, AR
Couple of items during setup worth mentioning for future owners. First, the oil supplied is 1.16 liters which the tag says is the capacity. After putting oil in and checking level it was below the level for operation as shown in the owners manual. I added more until mid way in the operation range, didn’t measure how much but probably closer to 1.4 liter total. Second item was the owners manual tells you to connect the battery cables but were already connected? What it didn’t tell you was the cables have a modular plug which is tie wrapped and tucked up under the sheet metal so not obvious. Only after a no start and beginning to troubleshoot did I find the connection. Started on propane for initial run, fired up after a few turns and ran smooth. Plugged in a space heater to check for picking up load and all is well. Did not test 240V connection, still need to install my transfer switch then give it a try to see how well it carries bigger loads. So far meets my expectations.

Perfect for my entire house

I finally broke down and bought my generator. Not sure why I waited so long. Arrived, added oil, attached the propane tank and away we went. Couldn't believe power went out two days later. Generator started right up and powered my transfer switch allowing me to operate for the 12 hours it was out. Loved it. Super easy to setup.

Super easy set up. Ready to go! So glad we bought this. Highly recommend getting dual fuel. You never know what you are going to have access to during major power outages like we have in CA.
