After a lot of research I settled on this generator. The initial set up and break in went fairly smooth but found the instructions in manual were a little vague. With the help of YouTube I was able to figure most of it out. The generator is smooth and pretty quite. I think I will be very happy with this generator.
After reading all the directions that say you should remove the loads from the machine before starting and before stopping, then turning the machine off. Or turning on the LP tank then turning on the "On" switch before you hit the start button either on the machine or the remote. You have to be at the generator to do these things. So why the remote?
