- Starting the Generator : The generator is equipped with an electric start that includes a battery. It also features Cold Start Technology for quick starts in cold weather.
- Safety Features : It has resettable circuit breakers, a low oil shut-off switch, and an oil funnel for easy oil changes. The generator’s CO Shield® technology monitors the accumulation of carbon monoxide (CO) and automatically shuts off the engine if unsafe levels of CO gas are detected.
- Operation and Power Output : With 11,500 starting watts and 9,200 running watts, the generator can handle multiple power tools and large equipment. It has a 7.7-gallon gasoline tank, offering up to 10 hours of power at 50% load. The noise level is around 74 dBA.
- Outlets and Protection : It includes covered outlets: a 120/240V 30A locking outlet (L14-30R), a 120/240V 38A outlet (14-50R), and four 120V 20A GFCI household outlets (5-20R). The Volt Guard™ built-in surge protector prevents overloads and protects equipment from voltage spikes.
- Maintenance and Monitoring : The unit has a 1.2-quart oil capacity (recommended 10W-30) and features Champion’s Intelligauge to monitor voltage, frequency, runtime, and total runtime hours.
- Portability and Storage : It includes a foldaway easy-grip handle and a wheel kit with never-flat tires for easy movement.
- Safety Precautions : Always use the generator outdoors, far away from occupied buildings, and ensure the engine exhaust is pointed away from people and building.
