    Good generator only one problem it has the air intake on the bottom of the generator so if you set it down in sand snow or dirty surfaces they can suck up into the engine get past the filter and cause damage. Put it on a very clean surface or on a picnic table or on a piece of cardboard or a little piece of plywood did you cut and keep with you and you will have no problem overall good generator.

    How long will this run for in total? I read it's only good for 1000 hrs in total. Bought it for the gigs but now I'm looking at wasting it on remedying Toronto Hydro deciding to slowly murder us here. I haven't had a shower in a week because there's either no water at all or no hot water most of the time since they brought in already a tiny insufficient generator with not enough running watts to supply a 19 story residential building. It keeps shutting down for many hours at a time, and they don't give a damn. Can't cook, all my food has gone bad, I have medical needs for electrical power, and I may not be alive much longer if my Firman 1600 generator dies on me too. They brought this in to replace electrical equipment downstairs. No one is replacing it, no one is even there to maintain the generator. If one of us dies - no one will notice.

    best thing ever for these things, dont give it a break in period. fire that sucker up and plug the max it can handle right off the bat. plus the oil that comes with it you can put the full bottle in it. and eco mode will automatically adjust the idle for what you plug in it, so just run it with that on or it will high idle all the time.

      @DikoMan you cant detect sarcasm??? any engine that requires fluids in it always need a break in period. my point was if you started up the generator and didnt skip the break in video part and just plugged in what the max it can handle you are destroying the motor.

      @mikeywc808 2 года назад +1

      I have the Costco Yamaha sitting dead in my garage right now. I left gas in it for 3 months with stabilizer and the carb froze up. Try fast fix and everything else and still won’t run. My dad has this firman. Just put it on a dolly or cart to keep it off the ground. It runs good but a little harder to start. Yamaha was quieter, but doesn’t have the fuel cut off some some gas is always stuck in there unless you run it dry.
