This generator ran when I used it a few months ago. I have no reason to believe that it will not, however due to the age of the unit and some recent dealings with buyers who had unreasonable expectations of half-century old equipment and to head off people having unreasonable expectations I have listed it as for parts or not working. Please remember this generator is probably 60-75 years old. It is in good condition for its age but is best for someone who collects these or likes to tinker with old things. Please do not expect a new generator. Due to shipping weight and cost,There will be absolutely no returns or refunds on this item. The only thing that is broken on this is the kill switch (you have to choke it off) and one of the rubber feet is broken (I have the foot and will include it). made by Kohler of Kohler back in the 40's or 50's as near as I can tell from looking online. This little guy starts up on a couple pulls. The light lights up and all the electric connections work. Comes with a 20A lead cord with a few 120v plugs on it. I have run circular saws and other small power tools off of it, never a problem with power draw. Please see the picture of the plate for all specifications Seems to be complete. The shut off switch is there but does not work so it needs to be choked off. Its heavy for its size. One of the rubber feet is broken off, but I have it. Should be an easy fix. Please email me with any questions. Shipping for this will be expensive due to its weight. I'm guessing 70-80lbs at around $1 per pound. Buyer to pay all shipping and a $15.00 crate fee for me to construct a wooden crate to ship it in. Generator can also be picked up locally in the Albany, NY area. Ships from zipcode 12205. I will work with buyer to arrange shipping.
