Thanks Tom , we’re off shopping today for a proper extension cord , some oil , and maybe even some Food . I’ll get it all set up and make a full report as soon as we can connect it to the trailer AC …(that’s another story)
The directions were fairly clear about what was needed for maintenance . Nothing complicated .

Monday , the wife and I went to Harbor Freight, and home Depot , looking for a 25’ 10AWG extension cable . Neither had what we needed , both were a “Circus" on Labor Day . I should have known better but was directed to do so by the higher power. :R Ended up ordering everything online .
However we did have a 25% off coupon at HF and used that to get a nice HF jerrycan for generator gas . Filled it up ( and the truck) on the way home and added the stabilizer. We’d had lots of those red plastic gas cans , and they last a year and then split and leak … Thought we’d try one of these metal ones …
We also got a squeeze bulb siphon hose ( just in case) .
