Honda is a byword for reliable, efficient and high-quality power, and if you need power for semi-professional work, to power tools like cement mixers, pressure spray painters, washers or mobile food vans*, even for rescue work or flood control, then this generator from Honda’s workhorse endurance range is definitely one to look at. Providing a rated output of 1700 watts with a maximum output of 2000 watts, this condenser generator is powered by a commercial grade, 163cc, Honda GX160T1, 4-stroke, single cylinder with OHV (overhead valve) technology for improved performance with lowered fuel usage, fewer vibrations and lowered emissions. Very tough and durable, the generator and engine are protected by a powder-coated, tubular steel frame which also serves to stabilise the unit. In addition, the engine and the alternator are protected by being rubber-mounted within the housing. This also serves to lower engine vibrations significantly. The rubber mounts are specially designed and inclined at 45° for enhanced damping, superior to industry-standard straight mounts. An easy-to-use recoil makes starting very reliable and simple, combined with the transistorised ignition, and the engine is protected by a safety system called Oil-Alert, where the engine shuts down if the oil volume drops below a safe level, saving damage to the machine and keeping the user safe into the bargain. The generator offers dual voltage output with a circuit breaker for added safety and the construction across the board is robust and hardwearing. A one-year professional and five year domestic warranty is issued with this generator. * NB: It is important to check the wattage requirements of the equipment you intend to power so you can buy the right generator. Try to choose a generator with a rated output that is the total of wattages of your items, plus a contingency of approx 10%. tems like saws and drills are ‘reactive loads’ so although the running load might be low, the starting load needs to be calculated at up to five times the running load and subsequently after the initial powering up, less power is required for actual operation. E.g. a typical fridge might take 2, 200 w to start but 700 W to run.
The most important requirements for powerful cutting are high motor power and a high-speed chain. Bosch chain saws show their teeth in both cases, with this model having an 1900 Watt electric motor and a high chain speed of 12m/s. The Bosch SDS system allows tool-less chain mounting and tensioning. And the comprehensive Bosch safety design concept ensures trouble-free working. The Bosch AKE 35-19S Electric Chainsaw has a 35cm/14"" blade length and features a rapid-reaction kick-back brake as well as 7 steel gripping teeth for a firm grip. The ergonomic handle is designed for maximum comfort for both sawing and felling. The chain is automatically lubricated and there is a oil-level indicator to ensure you don't run dry. A large 200 ml oil reservoir (with filter) means less stops. Weighs just 4.3 kg. FREE DELIVERY NEXT WORKING DAY! BOSCH ELECTRIC CHAIN SAWS HAVE A 2 YEAR WARRANTY.
