In short, yes. The starter in my car ran on the first pull when I manually started it using gasoline.
It is important that you remember this is an air-cooled engine, which, by design, is notoriously noisy. A large muffler on the engine helps greatly with sound reduction, but this generator has an open cabinet and does not have an enclosed cabinet, so all the noise from the engine and generator is spread throughout the room. Depending on a person's perspective, noise can be different. When you are bothered by rattling noise and low sounds do not bother you, you might consider an enclosed model that costs more. Rattles may not bother you so much, but low sounds may. If you have concerns about low sounds, this is the perfect As for myself, I was aware of what I was purchasing. This is an open generator, so I made a very nice enclosure to keep the noise down and my generator produces 65 db The sound level of all generators of this price, that are air cooled and not enclosed, is quite high. It is more a matter of whether your neighbors will tolerate the noise.
Without a doubt. In addition to running my furnace, fridge, heat source for the fish tank, and a bunch of lights, I charged my phone. To get the generator going, start it first, let it warm up some, then pull one thing at a time, and you will
A generator will be loud despite how you build around it. The guy who suggested that you do not build a box around it is right, however you can build a shed around it and insulate it, and that's what I intend Based on watching YouTube videos, I have found a very nice build that I will copy. This almost makes it run soundproof when running, at least not so loud that the neighbors can hear it. There's no getting around it, if you want a big generator, you will get noise. Suck it up and live with it, or you can build an insulated shed with a vent fan for it.

This is a great generator! I suppose so. Our island was visited a few days ago by Hurricane Irma. Until one day before Irma was due to arrive, it was still in the box. My son got it ready in less than 15 minutes. He filled it with the oil that it came with. For testing and to show me what to do, I filled up that baby with gas and turned the engine up to full power. I'm making it easy for you. In particular, the electric start button is useful. *It was out of power when it happened. The appliances I connected were 2 refrigerators, 2 freezers, a fan, 2 televisions & more There is also a DVR for watching videos, a heat lamp with 30 chicks, 2 indoor lamps, a waffle iron, and a coffee maker. Moreover, I think there was enough power left over. The generator never missed a beat and continued working for 4 days until we were able to get electricity once again. My life was certainly made easier by it. It's one of the best generators I've seen!.
In a nutshell It was not possible for me to purchase this generator with battery start functionality. The following information was verified by email and telephone with Champion before I made the purchase. It is very important to purchase the non electronic/electric starting generator. If the battery is dead or removed (for some reason), you cannot pull start this generator with gasoline. It is only possible to pull start exactly the same generator with propane. This happens because there is a 12V (battery operated) solenoid valve in the carburetor that switches off the flow of gas to the carburetor when the battery is not present or when the generator is not on. No matter what fuel it runs on, it must run for me. In my opinion, the generator is at risk for failure if it relies on a 12-volt battery. She cannot troubleshoot a 12 volt solenoid when she needs the generator to work if the battery is dead and my wife has to go outside and start it with a dead battery. It is one of those things where the batteries go out right when you need them most. Apart from that, this It took me some time to research it before I purchased
Update in progress There was a big storm that came through in June of this year. It was knocked out of power. Out of the garage, I pulled the generator. After hooking up propane, we were up and running in no time. Our home has been over 90 degrees here and we were able to continue our routines without interruption. Watched Dish TV even while sitting on the couch. We had the only house on our block that was Considering my point of view, it has already paid for itself. In addition to myself and my home, I plan to buy one for each of my sons The price was well worth it.
In the event that this had 10 stars, we would have given it an 11 out of 10. We lost power as a result of Hurricane Irma, and this generator has made things a little easier. Over the course of three days, we used two propane tanks. As well as running two refrigerators, ceiling fans and lighting, it served as a source of energy. Approximately 14/15 hours a day were spent running. A night run was not conducted. A mechanic has taken a picture because he wants one. Neighbors plan to buy the unit and one took a picture. A reliance transfer switch was installed by an electrician. The extension cord for running the generator outside the garage was purchased as well. We just purchased this house at the beginning of August. It's been one of the best decisions we've.
As a result, I plan to return the investment I made. As soon as I saw this generator, I thought it would be perfect to drive a trailer with. Posted on August 9, 2018, it was received by me. First time I started it on September 11 was when I took it out. As part of my business, I specifically purchased it for use while dry camping. I was able to start it with little difficulty, and the fuel consumption seemed good. The noise level generated by the earpiece was unbearable for most people not just There were a lot of people complaining about the noise and cheering when they were told it was closing. It was difficult to conduct business in the campground, as well as the fact that we were just pariahs. No word comes close to describing the situation. It turned out that the generator was not generating 68 DBA, as advertised, but between 77 and 79 DBA. The noise level is 80 dba, and probably even higher when not Seeing as we were part of a large crowd of people and were clearly disrupting their otherwise good time, we shut down the show, packed up, and left since we were unable to charge our batteries and devices any longer, and since our business wasn't going to succeed in that setting.
It has been used for a reasonable amount of time before the review (approximately 275 runs). We regret to inform you that he has passed away. At around the 220 hour mark, it had troubles with the electric start sometimes it would take five minutes to turn on I tried starting it for 10 minutes after it wouldn't start. Last time we ran it (4 hour run) it wouldn't start at all with the electric start, in fact, I ran the battery dead trying to start it, but it started after two attempts. I was saddened to see that be the last attempt to start it. I have tried to start the vehicle twice since then with the battery running dead both times, but I was unsuccessful every time. Trying to pull start the vehicle for over 30 minutes did not yield results. In either case, it was a good machine to run when it was running. I would still anticipate it not to die before its 3rd oil change, considering the investment was 500 dollars. It is $1. 00. For a generator you depend on, 80/hour is far too fast. Message

Update One of the pistons had to be repaired because of a stuck position. In the course of operation, the piston tightened and got stuck open, which prevented the engine from generating If this happens, your compression will just pass through the exhaust and out the other side. Take a look there first if your car is acting up. note, I had to solve this myself as Champion did not respond to my email.
