Just in time for the storm season

from Waconia Mn.
Started up as soon as I put gas in it. The only thing wrong is where they put the PROPAINE LINE WHEN SHIPPING THE UNIT. I THOUGH IT WAS MISSING IN SHIPPING. BUT FOUND OUT IT WAS NOT. IT WAS PUT UP OUT OF SIGHT, WERE NO ONE IN THE RIGHT MIND LOOK IN THAT PLACE. (ON TOP OF THE MOTOR), DID NOT FIND OUT TILL I RAN THE MORTOR. When I turned off the motor it raddled, Then I found it, but it was too late. The plastic knob melted and can not use it. Plus the battery came loose in shipment. and was bouncing around in the carton. and the negative side of the battery post was cracked and the bolt was striped.

Ordered this on Monday morning, it arrived on Tuesday before I had a tracking number! Can't wait to fire this baby up. Did some research to find the features I wanted, read the reviews. Now it's up to the machine to do the rest, to be the best. Pretty excited to see how it does with my RV plugged into it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My Generator is teaching me

When in doubt search for the best and my WGen3600DF came out on top everywhere. So now I'm learning about wire gauge and that propane produces slightly less Watts than gasoline. Yesterday was the real test after filling the tank with "unleaded", flipped a couple of buttons, and YES ! it started right up and ran fine during this break-in period. I'm here in Florida where hurricanes pop up any time from June to Sept. ... so plan ahead and be ready cause for certain your gonna end up in the dark for a few days and/or paying a big motel bill... so pay it now or pay it later - It's up to you.

I plug my 140 Lincoln welder and welded no problem!! It seems to be very fuel efficient and isn't terribly loud. Remote start is very nice. Ill be using it for a off grid cabin.

Very handy

I normally stock on gasoline at the start of hurricane season and use the gas in the winter. Dual fuel let's me keep a year-round supply of propane on standby. Electric start is nice, especially if you use it often. I've had some trouble starting it but chalked it up to a weak battery. Worked ok with the pull cord.

It seems to be well built and easy to start

I really haven't used it yet, only to put ti together and start it up. But I don't like the design for putting the wheel on the side of the instrument panel. I had mounted the wheel and then had to take it off again in order to put the battery in. Plus it is really very tight fit to put the pin in that holds that wheel in place. I will be using this generator at our cabin in Northern Minn and will have to remove the battery every fall to keep it from freezing over the winter when the cabin is not in use. Which means the wheel has to come off every time I need to take out the battery. Not really a big problem but their must have been a better way to design that. Also I was disappointed to find that I had to actually shut the power off at the machine when I wasn't going to use it for several hours or overnight to keep from running down the battery. On the generator I had before if the machine was shut down everything was off and there was no problem with the battery being drained. Which was the main reason I wanted a remote start.

Received with damaged air cleaner assembly. The specs looked good. Will need to get the air cleaner replaced before using.
