Product-page facts plus manual detail.

DEWALT’s current U.S. product page provides the overview, feature list, and gallery. Official manuals supply the detailed electrical, engine, runtime, and physical ratings where available.

Outdoor use only. Never operate a fuel-burning generator inside a home, garage, shed, or other enclosed space. Follow the official manual and use an approved transfer method for home connections.

Manufacturer overview

The 4000 watt portable gas generator is powered by a 223cc engine with low-oil shutdown. CO-Protect automatically shuts down the generator if carbon monoxide levels become unsafe or rapidly increase. Covered outlets, heavy-duty wheels, a fold-down handle, and a 1 1/4-inch steel tube frame prepare it for demanding transport and storage.
