    Portable Power Generators

    Supply power to equipment in the field. A favorite of contractors, they’re portable enough to toss on a truck bed or push like a wheelbarrow. Built to last—the engine self-lubricates and shuts off when oil runs low.
    Generators cannot be sold to the listed areas due to import regulations and emissions requirements.

    2,200 W Maximum Continuous Watts—With a current as stable as a home outlet, these lightweight generators convert between DC and AC power to avoid power spikes. When power demands decrease, the engine slows down to save you gas. These low engine speed and the hard plastic shell around the engine make them as quiet as a dishwasher. Use a single generator for tasks under 2,200 watts, or chain two together when you need to double your output.

    The toughest generators we offer. The diesel engine lasts longer and is more fuel efficient than a gasoline-powered one, so you’ll save money over time. Great for outdoor jobs in winter—they start and operate in temperatures below freezing. Hook your crane onto the steel frame’s lifting eye to move them around your site or to secure them off the ground at night.
