I removed it from the box, connected the battery, installed the supplied oil, filled the gas tank, turned on the fuel, turned on the battery, pressed the start button and immediately it purred to life. I connected my heat gun and it worked. My only disappointment is that the digital read out is in metric liters and kilowatts. I did a google search and found charts to convert them (see attached).
Everything out of the box has worked great so far. Haven't got a lot of run time on it yet but initial setup, startup & short period operation has all gone better than expected. Very impressed with how quiet this thing runs with load for a 3700/4500 W generator.
Runs great, sounds great, and performs as it should, seems as quiet as the Honda 3000 at work. Handle is plenty long for rolling around and the side handles are nice if you have a helper.
Purchase unit about 2 weeks ago used last week because we lost power during to storm and we were able to run everything we needed .from the microwave to the freeze to 3 laptops and our internet plus a Tv to keep on on the storm
I bought this 2-19-21 ,put oil in in it and gas hooked up battery and it stared right up, ran it for one hour and change the oil it was a little hard to get to the oil drain plug,the manual says it has a automatic rotating data number display but it has a push button which I like better, it surges a little bit but does not change volt on the display called Westinghouse waiting to hear back from them about the surge and display. so far i like it.
A lot of features and power for the cost. Have not run it yet. I Hope there are no problems with it. If there are problems with it, I will update my review. I will give it 5 stars based on the features, power and value.
