THIS UNIT HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR has very low running hours.excellent condition. oil and filter has just been changed. electric start, automatic shut down for low oil or other problems. i have never had a problem with this. it does need a battery for the electric start. i used my yard tractor to jump start. didnt want to buy a new battery just to sit and wait for the next power outage, included is a 220 and 110 volt cables and plugs and homemade cover.
