Not good for 30 amp backup generator for shop

Took the generator out of box added the oil and gas and connected the battery. Turned the generator on and gas started leaking. Took panels off and the gas line from tank to carburetor was torn almost in half next to the gas tank. Cut bad part out and reconnected. Can not get the 30amp to feed the shop as back up power. after hooking up to the panel and locking out main power and switching to generator with all breakers of it goes straight to overload.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this over a month ago and have yet to really use it but it has all the features I was looking for. It was purchased to use while camping and can’t wait to try it out next summer.
This is the backup generator for my yacht. This handles all of our power needs. It was easy to get the dock with the built in wheels and handles. It did require two hefty men to get it up onto the boat and settled into its new home.
