McCulloch FG6000MK 5700 Watt 13 HP 338cc Portable Generator
The McCulloch 11 HP generator with wheel kit and front panel has a 5-gallon fuel tank for 7 hours of runtime when half-loaded. It’s powered by an efficient 11 HP OHV engine with an easy pull recoil starter. This generator shuts off the ignition when dangerously low oil levels occur, and it’s enclosed in a compact protective roll cage frame. A conveniently located on/off switch provides easy control of this generator, which provides a maximum of 5,700 watts. 10-inch pneumatic wheels and a collapsible handle provide mobility. You’ll also appreciate the large muffler that helps restrict noise from the generator. This generator is backed by a 1-year limited warranty.
User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Great Value
Delivered on time, included oil, some assembly required. Bolts for handles are soft/low quality, so had to replace one that when overtightened, broke, with a hardened bolt. Other than that, this generator starts right up with no hesitation. Instructions funny–translated from Chinese. Missing info: You need to turn on the generator switch, in addition to opening the fuel line and choke to start. Otherwise, pull and pull and pull and nothing will happen. Provides wattage advertised. Check with multimeter since it does not have a meter on the unit. Got the generator before all the hurricanes, at a great price.

I purchased this generator a couple of weeks ago. It was delivered 1 day early on 8/28/2008 three days before hurricane Gustov passed 60 miles to my west. Our power went down for 53 hours. This generator performed flawlessly for 53 hours of continuous use. I never shut it off. It powered my well,refrigerator,freezer,TV and really everything but my air conditioner.It is quite fuel efficient and moderately quiet. I would definately recommend it to anyone.This is a solid heavy duty unit and I am confident I made the right choice.
4 Stars Great Price – Lousy delivery
Lots of problems with the delivery – ended up taking 3 weeks to get the product. Once I finally got it, it was great. Wheel kit was easy to install. Works well and I would recommend it to others.
1 Star not as advertised
This product is deceptive in it’s advertisement. Amazon would not even respond to my inquiries about this item. It is advertised as a 13 hp model and it is not it is 11 hp I guess Poor customer service very poor I called before I bought this item because of other feed back and the rep told me that it was indeed a 13 hp model. Well it is not as advertised buyer beware. As far as I’m concerned it is wrong and deceptive advertisement. Steve
