I put the generator together yesterday (just wheels and feet) added oil and gasoline and it started right up, after I remembered to turn the gasoline valve to the open position.
After the setup was completed, I followed the instructions for gas and oil. The battery was charged and all I did was touch the remote start key-fob. The generator immediately started. No more pulling or struggling with a pull start generator.
Bought this generator to backup our home solar system and it works great! The remote start option works directly with our solar inverter to automatically start it up when it needs it. It also has the remote start fob which is a great addition. While the generator is heavy, it’s easy to move around with the large heavy duty wheels, even in gravel!
This generator is a dream so far. After it was delivered I filled the oil, plugged in the battery wire, hooked up a propane tank to test it and it fired right up with the push of a button. I plan to get a transfer switch installed so it can power my home in an emergency. I live in Florida so there’s always a chance of a power outage. I plan to run gasoline predominately, but I’ll keep a propane tank for backup. As I get older it hard to pull the rope to start the old generator. This generator is going to make my life much easier.
