- Rugged and durable: Solid frames, wrap-around steel tubes, powder coating, and shock mounts for protection during transport.
- Dependable: Built to work under heavy loads for extended periods to handle the toughest jobs.
- Safe: GFCI, OSHA-approved tanks, and low oil shutoff to prevent engine damage.
- High-powered engines: Honda FX630 and Briggs Stratton engines provide dependable and efficient power output.
- Proven reliability: Every unit is load tested before it leaves the factory to ensure it will work properly when you start it up.
- Clean power: Every unit offers less than 5% total harmonic distortion and 100% copper windings to produce clean power and protect your tools and equipment.
- Warranty: WINCO offers an industry-leading three-year warranty on its portable generators to provide you with greater peace of mind.
