Big, Powerful, Heavy
on March 31, 2023
Posted by: MadScientist
from Ann Arbor, MI
Overall satisfied with this machine. It's a beast, but able to power my whole house with an outdoor 50A receptacle and interlock switch put on my panel
PRO's: Powerful, appears to be well built, looks good, has 50A outlet and PLENTY of other plugs, has clean low THD power, good value, I like the low idle mode for warming up and cooling down the machine
CON's:
- Very heavy. Ok to roll on flat surface, but challenging to roll on even a slight incline. Don't expect to move this into a truck bed or up any kind of hill without some major help.
- Loud. You probably expect this, but it's about as loud as a riding mower at full throttle without mowing deck engaged
- Large Size. Before you buy, check the dimensions and make sure you have a plan on for where to store it. Will be a challenge to store in a garage if you also plan to park a car in there too.
- Oil dipstick is hard to remove and replace
- Connecting battery is a little tricky due to weird angles of wires
- Location of 50A plug means that you have to tuck the cord behind the generator wheel. Not a big deal, but could have been thought out better

Screws stripped upon arrival, what next

from New market va
Haven't started it yet but the screws for the rubber feet where stripped and couldn't install. Tried to register and get my free cover but can insert a link that will be accepted. Frustrating. What next?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
