The Makita 5,800-watt 11 HP portable power generator has a reliable aluminum alloy OHV engine with a brushless alternator to deliver consistent power with less downtime for maintenance and a forged steel crankshaft fully supported by ball bearings. The electronic ignition system with GFCI receptacles meet safety requirements and features a convenient recoil starter and automatic idle switch to reduce fuel consumption. Rubber feet on the rugged steel roll cage frame support the engine and serve as shock absorbers, while the water-deflecting louvers make this generator watertight. A 5.68-gallon fuel capacity provides 7 hours of run time at half load. The generator produces 74 decibels of sound, measures 27.2-by-18.9-by-23.2 inches (L x W x H) and weighs 172 pounds, and is backed by a 1-year limited warranty.
