Just got this just in time for our next ice storm. Brought it home ran through the small assembly requirements (attach wheels and feet). Began the first startup, fill oil and fuel, ran through all the manuals instructions and could not get the electric and key fob to work. Manual start it fired right up not very loud while running and started on the first pull. We figured the battery was dead seeing we had no green lights on the start button. So, we plugged in the charger and was going to wait for it to charge but, my husband decided to take another look at it and was convinced that when we ordered it the add said came fully charged. Long story but we found that the battery was not connected properly and plugged in the quick connect and boom push button and key fob work! Very pleased with our purchase!
I bought this before the winter ice storm- so glad I did. It powered up most of my house, directions on how to use it were good. I only wished it would start first time on electric start.
