BRAND NEW GENERATOR
This generator served its purpose with the recent power outages and saved us a lot of frozen food. We don't see any immediate use for it in the near or far future so we are happy to give it to someone at a great deal and to give it a new home. It is, as you can see, a Power Line PG3600E. It will have to be picked up. It comes with 8L of fuel in the tank and another 10L of fuel in the fuel can plus 4L of oil for topping up plus nozzle. The warranty papers haven't been filed so they can be completed and sent on. It has one outlet.
