The wheel kit is a must have item, really makes it easier to move about!!!!
I have a new 9000w Predator, had a couple of other open frame type. Each of them, (Dry w/ no oil or fuel),was stood on end and wheels and balance stands were attached easily.
Excellent video! I especially enjoy that you "showed" you viewers all the detail that they needed without rambling on and on just to hear yourself speak. Captions were cool to provide insigt into what you were doing and the closeups were outstanding. That is a good idea to use the cut off oil container as a drain pan. 5 star instructional video and a new subscriber as well!
Good video. Love how you split the oil bottle to use as a drain can. I'll definitely be using that nifty trick.
BRO REALLY A GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU MINE HAS BEEN THE BOX FOR 3 YEARS I SAW IT ON SALE FOR $200.00 SO I PICKED IT UP NEVER USED IT YET BUT NOW I KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I too agree that this video is very informative and it offers more instruction than most over talkative demonstrators.
based on all the good reviews of this generator bought one today and will use with RV travel trailer. Nice to watch the video to see just what I'll need. Thanks.
what a terrific video. Well done! Clear and precise. Thanks for taking the time to share this valuable informational experience.
Thanks! Very clear on what to expect. I just bought one!
I'm really sorry that you lost your voice. 😉

Viewers don't like when you talk too much.
I bought a Honeywell that was similar and those rubber feet don't hold up too well. I bought some hockey pucks and drilled them out and 5 years later they are still working great.
Great video! Covered the oil change perfectly. Thanks for sharing.
How much did the hernia surgery add to ovrtall cost?, and the choropractot. Corner cutting the box would have been effective. Stnding the generator on end (box panels protecr the paint) allow quick work on wheels and feet mounting.

HAHA, good idea.
Just picked up the same setup last week. Looks good so far. Hope she lasts a long time.
Thanks you for taking the time you took to make this
Just bought an Open Box 3200/4000 for $271.00. I already owned one of these and was extremely satisfied.
appreciate the video, great job very detailed. thanks
@Hubjeep, Dude, thanks for clear, precise instructions. I bought the Predator 4000 over the weekend. If not for you, I would of made a hash of putting this together. You da mensch!

Great job!
Great video, Thanks
EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!!!
my owner's manual recommends the generator should be grounded this is weird. I don't see anybody ground their generators. What is your take on this bro? Thanks
Excelent
Thank you great video, my generator is still in the box, but I now know what to do. You did this video in 2014, how's your generator doing, was it worth the money? Thanks again. 😊

Still runs great, even rarely used. Always store with fuel stabilizer!
I bought this as a camping generator, the instructions say to ground it, does this need to be grounded?

This generator is a 120v/240v unit. That 3,200 watts is divided in half for each 120v receptacle, 1600 to the left one, 1600 to the right one. As far as I know camping trailers and RV's are 120V, with a big 30A plug. Some generators this size have a 120V, 30A plug (and no 240V) to provide enough amperage to start rooftop A/C units, etc. If you are just running two extension cords from each 120V receptacle you can plug a high-load item into each (coffee maker for example). This generator is a similar size, but all the power coming out of one big plug (120V, 30A "RV" plug). www.campingworld.com/champion-3650-watt-portable-generator-49-state-95895.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIiMi5k6Gg6QIV6giICR3vlghkEAQYASABEgIPKvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

@@Hubjeep I'm not running an rv or camper. I'm technically trying to run an enclosed trailer with just a few lights, a space heater and a CPAP machine. There isnt going to be a huge load on it, and I already own this generator. Would it be wise for me to ground it? If so, would a grounding rod be required, or can I ground it to the chassis of the trailer?
They need to pay you !!
I have the same Generator with the wheel kit Does yours slope Towards the front ??? starving the fuel line. mine needs to be raised about 3/4 of an inch to level the Unit
After how many hours do you recommend to change the oil? I have the same generator

+Deucealive75 Good question, maybe 24 hours when a neighbor borrowed it. It does look surprisingly dirty, I actually enjoy changing oil and do it often.

+Hubjeep Yeah. I just changed the oil on my new generator (not a Pred) and didn't care how it looked after about a 1.3 hour break in. Wasn't real bad but I thought it should look better than it did. The oil changes aren't as bad as people make them out to be. I did the same thing as you except with a gallon milk jug. I also slightly tipped it to help drain the extra out. Real good vid here by the way.
Great video. Thanks.
