Rugged yet lightweight, the EF2600C features a new look and enhanced cold weather capabilities. Featuring a "Damper Winding" alternator the EF2600C produces a cleaner sine wave than most conventional generators in its class. The EF2600C offers excellent value and Yamahas unquestioned reliability. Weighing in at only 44 kg (97 lb.) the EF2600C offers clean, convenient power for under $1,000 !    .igg{float:right; padding:10px;} .tdg{border-bottom:1px solid #dedede;} .ttl{width: 100%; height: 30px; background-color: #eeeeee; line-height: 26px; padding-top: 2px; font-weight: bold; color: #fff; margin-top: 10px; color: #df0101; font-size: 14px; clear: both;} .list ul{list-style:disc; padding-left:10px;} .list li{ Damper Winding Alternator Improved efficiency, increased reliability and quieter operation.   Special cold use technology The EF2600C features a special cold weather protection plate for enhanced function during winter use.   Features  Powered by Yamahas MZ175; 171cc, air-cooled (with fan assist), OHV, 4-stroke, single with electronic transistor controlled (TC) ignition.  Auto decompression system reduces engine compression to provide a light recoil starter pull for effortless manual starting.  Manual choke.  Cast iron cylinder liner provides excellent heat dissipation and extends service life.  Yamahas Oil Watch Warning System automatically shuts off the engine when oil level is low and will not re-start until oil is added, preventing costly engine damage and enhancing long-term durability. Low oil warning light will illuminate on the front panel too.  Easy access, washable foam air filter reduces maintenance costs.  Easy access oil drain plug  Maintenance-free brushless alternator offers superior reliability and reduced maintenance.  Damper Winding alternator reduces wave form distortion for "cleaner" power (power is almost as clean as an inverter).  Rated AC output for continuous use is 2,300 watts / 19.2 amps.  Neutral is bonded to frame.  Non-fuse type circuit breaker (NFB) prevents internal circuit damage in the event of an over load.  AC volt meter provides easy to read voltage output.  Cold weather protection plate enhances the function of the EF2600C in winter conditions  On-off fuel petcock lets you shut off the gas to run the carb dry for storage, helping to prevent stale fuel problems, which are becoming more common with ethanol based fuels.  Large fuel fill hole for easy filling. Fuel gauge is standard.  Rubber vibration isolation mounts reduce vibration for smoother operation and reduced noise.  Rugged perimeter frame protects the generator and engine from damage.  CSA approved (Canadian Standards Association).  3-year warranty for "residential / home" use or "commercial use."
