It arrived this morning via freight. It took about 20 mins to unbox it and get the wheels and front legs on it. Once I pulled it into my backyard, I filled it with the 1.1L oil shipped with it. Nice touch on just the exact amount!! Then I filled it full of gas and then connected the battery leads. I hooked up my generator plus into my transfer switches and then flipped the run button to ON and pressed the start button. I forgot to turn the gas line on, so once I did that, the start button fired it right up. I then switched from line power to generator power to see how this big thing would handle the load. It never missed a beat.
After being without power for 9 days due to the Easter tornado, We will be able to run much more of our home in the future if a similar incident occurs.
Bought the generator about a month ago to power up the house through a transfer switch during power outages. Excellent built, flawless electronic start, plenty of power. Runs relatively quietly at a minimum RPMs (except for surges when e.g. a fridge compressor starts). I am quite happy with the purchase.
