Unlike other standby generator manufacturers,  
our warranty covers parts, labor AND travel for the 
full length of the warranty with no start-up costs!
1
  This generator is certified in accordance with UL (Underwriters Laboratories) 2200 (stationary engine generator assemblies) and CSA (Canadian Standards Association) standard C22.2 No. 100-14 (motors and generators).
2
 Fuel consumption rates are estimated based on normal operating conditions at ½ load. Generator operation may be greatly affected by elevation and the cycling operation of multiple electrical appliances – fuel flow rates may vary 
depending on these factors.

 See operator’s manual or BRIGGSandSTRATTON.com for complete warranty details.
4
 Lowest no-load measurement per ISO 3744. Sound level measurement at other locations around generator may be different depending upon installation configuration.
