This engine offers the finest lubrication technology available by providing instantaneous disbursement of lubricant to all engine parts. It also features a spin-on oil filter, which is an automotive style for easy maintenance. It also offers one of the longest life expectancies in the industry, with over 3,000 hours of runtime.

By flipping a single switch, the utility is locked out and the load is transferred to the generator.

A large, 16-gallon capacity fuel tank give the generator a 10-hour run-time at half-load capacity, ensuring you have the power you need. An easy electric start eliminates the need to pull a rope. A simple push of the ignition and an automatic ignition timing sets the spark for easy starting and optimum operating performance.

This thing is a monster. Runs my entire house. I have a well pump, septic, and Furnace. Didn't even 1\2 load this thing. Best generator I have used. Comes with the 60A panel box and the outside plug box. I hooked up most of my 2 story house to this thing and it works like a champ. For all this includes you can't beat the price and quality.
