    • Plan ahead for the needed extras. Read the Manual
Style: 12,000-Watt Dual Fuel
It arrived on time by truck. The delivery couple had trouble with their lift gate and dropped it- almost slowly- over the side of the back of the truck. No apparent harm though. Some of the welding of the frame is a bit substandard. - The tool kit that it comes with isn't enough to set it up. You'll need other metric tools or adjustable wrenches. - The hardware list of nut and bolt sizes they enclose isn't accurate. I used 8, 10, 13, 15 mm and larger wrenches for the job. Attaching the axle stubs involved a 3/4 in for the nut and an 11/16 wrench to hold tight against. - The tires are hard foam. Pneumatic would be better. I found them at Harbor Freight on sale at $4 each. There is no wear washer, so they rub on the cotter pin. You need one with a 5/8th in center hole. The axles are 5/8 inch diameter. - The manual says to flip the unit over to work on the base. Use the piece of foam in the box to flip the top of the generator onto it. You do not have to, you could put it on blocks and do the work. Getting it out of the box by turning it over is easy if you are strong enough. - Remove the wood block that's cable tied on one end of the frame. There were two red/orange metal braces to remove also near the motor mounts on the other end. - Turn it back over before you put on the carry handles, then install them. It rolls pretty easily with the handles on. - Remove the plate over the battery location below the controls. The battery on mine was all but fully charged. Getting the negative terminal on is tricky. It BARELY reaches the post. You have to undo the bolt fully and then position the locking nut in the terminal post, holding it up to the bolt as you try to catch the threading. Use the tool kit screwdriver for this- it flips from flat to Phillips- slide it under the locking nut and push up. - They tell you to ground the generator with a 12 awg piece of wire ( not supplied ). They show you where to hook up the ground on the control panel, but give no clues as to how much of a ground pole you need to use for it. I'm going to use a spare hunk of copper pipe. - You add 1 and 1/4 quarts of oil to the engine. The oil funnel provided does help some but the hose on it is a bit short. Pour slowly. - With the switch OFF, I pulled the manual starter cord 5 or 6 times to lubricate the motor up so it was not dry. - Main breaker OFF, nothing connected to power plugs. Make sure the gasoline line is OFF to run on propane. This generator can't change fuel supply while running, you have to shut it down to switch fuels. I'm not fond of all that gasoline directly above the hot unit, so I will be running propane as the normal source of fuel which can be kept -away- from the exhaust end of the generator and out of the heat. A remotely tanked gasoline option, like used on an outboard motor, would be a nice alteration to this system especially if you want it in an enclosure as I intend to do. - I hooked up the propane. A regular 20 pound tank worked fine. I went and bought a 40 pounder to run as the supply. Others have talked about setting the choke at about 1/2 way to start on propane. Yes, that works but there is no fixed half choke position, you do this by feel. It will take a few turns of the motor to start as it needs to purge the air out of the line before it gets propane. Once it starts, set the choke to OFF and it runs smoothly. Let it run a couple minutes, then switch the breaker on, then you plug in based on largest load you need first. READ the manual!!! - The motor started up nicely and ran smoothly. It's not that noisy. The muffler is pretty good sized, and it's not too bad even directly below a bedroom window. - The manual is pretty good. But I saved other tips I got from reviews of this unit for operation. Breaker OFF, then Shut off your propane tank valve and let the engine die before you switch the key off. - They supply you with power plugs, no cables, and no instructions on how to use them or make your own cables. I bought pre made with multi outlets for the 30 and 40 amp outlets. They do not provide the 50 amp plug. I'll use the 50 amp outlet to tie into my home later on. - The manual does not provide any instructions about connection to a home for a main power supply backup, nor does it tell you what you need to have to do so. One of the reviews here gives you a part list of items to make a home connection. Last words: I have not put mine into real time use yet, but it is ready for it after buying the extra supplies you need to make use of it. It should be fine for the needs I want it to meet in an emergency, although I am sure it isn't as powerful as the stand alones you can buy - but is is a lot cheaper. ... show more

Style: 12,000-Watt Dual Fuel
Based on our current use we would recommended this generator to everyone. It is very solid generator and meets our needs. We purchased this generator because we live in Florida and do to Hurricanes. For a low cost high powered generator that runs on propane or gas, I think you would be hard pressed to find another that has all the options, key start, and comes with the battery and all the accessories included. A standalone Generac 15KW would have been 9 thousand dollars with the auto transfer switch. You will save thousands and get the same results with this generator. This is more than enough to run my hole home, and I have 3 freezers, 1 fridge, and many other devices. Granted, my lights in my house are ALL LED now, which helps! But I was able to run three window unit also with four box fans with celling paddle fans, water heater, house water pump all at the same time. Most of the time I don’t rate or comment. BUT seeing some of these peoples who don’t have a clue what they doing writing comments here. If you never worked with four-stroke engines. Hire someone else don't blame the generators, do to ignorance of how to ADJUST IT. Then yes, I saw you needed to hook up the negative ground wire, (all batteries on engines never comes hook up) to the battery so I did that. (Now this quote from some other people writings) #1 “the unit will start rite up but surges badly on LP. Turning off the auto throttle switch corrects this issue. There is nothing in the manual regarding this switch. Once this was done the engine runs smooth.”#2 Engine revs up then dies down. Pretty annoying. (YOUR FIX) If you adjust the idle on the carburetor up, you can fix this and the auto throttle will work for LP running. Knowing what to do is key here. And No, you will not find this in the instructions. Again, Hire someone else if you do not know what I am talking about, don't blame the generator. It is shipped without oil, so it needs 1qt and a half of 5-w30. This is in your instructions, so, why be surprise you don’t have any oil. I do not recommend the 20gal that’s a full-sized grill propane cylinder. You can only use a little under half a tank before you will have problems with not enough Pressure to run generator. Get a sixty or eighty gallon, will work better and longer. I myself have it on a 250gal tank. Hope I have cleared up these “People miss understandings of what not to do. Dr.DRE1965 ... show more
