Nice machine, a few setup problems.

There is a spacer between the oil drain plug and the crankcase. The spacer is threaded into the crankcase and allows the draining oil to fall thru a hole in the bottom of the outer housing of the generator. On setting up the new machine, I decided to check the tightness of the drain plug. The plug was tight. The spacer - not so much. Just a bit more than finger tight, very little pressure on a small wrench and it was loose. I fear if I hadn't checked it, I could have lost all engine oil while running. Hopefully the "low oil" sensor would have shut the generator down before any damage was done.
Also, reinstalling the drain plug is a royal pain. A red wire to the starter passing over the drain plug is not helpful, a longer bit of wire rerouted would make a big difference.
I think we will like this generator and that it will serve us well. Quality assurance (read: tight drain plugs) and a little more thought on engineering would be more satisfying.

I bought the iGen4500 after weeks of research. My priorities were the most power with the lowest noise. When the generator arrived I started per the instructions right away and was blown away by not only the quality but it was more quiet that I was expecting. I can run my 15000 btu Rv air, the refrigerator and microwave all at one time. I’m so glad I went with the 4500 watts. I have access to other 3000 watt generators and this 4500 watts monster is quieter than the EU and Briggs even at 50% load. I’ve already told my closest friends to go buy this generator.
