Easy power

I bought the WGEN 5300s online, I am glad I did.It fired up and worked perfectly right out of the box.
It was easy to hook up to my home panel using a separately bought transfer switch, it plugs right into the L14-30 receptacle you just have to remove the neutral bonding jumper under the alternator cover to change it from bonded to floating neutral. The user manual explains this modification.
Now when the power goes out we can run our furnice, water heater, freezer and entertainment center.

Easy to setup!

The unboxing and setup was fairly easy, and completed within 30 minutes. It's heavy, so plan on a second set of hands or cutting the box.
It looks good and is "normal" noise level for a generator. I feel they are always too loud.
Time will tell if it holds up, but i'm happy so far.

Got this as a gift and so far so good. Easy to assemble and get running. Looking forward to it powering up our essentials when the house power goes out.
