I just could not handle the thing. It was huge and HEAVY. It had a rope start not even a recoil. But it was really high quality. Made by Pincor for Monkey Wards. But the damn thing took 2 men and a boy to handle. Had a cast iron Briggs commercial duty engine, the generator was also all cast iron and of course all the copper. I estimated it weighed about 200lbs
No, if it was that I would have simply hard wired it to the house with a transfer switch and installed the gen to run off ng. This thing was too small for that and too big to be useful to me. We now have confirmed there were multiple tornadoes in the region in addition to all the damage from the Derechco. Pretty easy when you drive around to see what damages were caused by what as well. Where the Derechco hit all the damage is in a straight line and where the tornadoes hit you can see where the damage skipped around. Anyway the area is pretty tore up<chuckle> I thought you meant a big genset, like 10-20 kw, and on a stationary mount.
