    Generac PM4500E 49ST / CSA

    Electric-Start Gas Generator with Broad Compliance and Solid Runtime

    Meet the PM4500E, a 4,500-watt starting, 3,600-watt running open-frame generator that adds electric-start convenience to classic Generac reliability. Designed for wide availability—49-state plus CSA certification—this model brings power to the people across nearly everywhere.

    Why You Might Like It

    Imagine just pushing a button after a power outage, and the generator springs to life—no more arm-warming rope pulls. It’s the same rugged 224 cc OHV engine, 5-gallon tank, and lean open-frame design you'd expect, but with an effortless start method and smooth upkeep checks via the hour meter and fuel gauge. Practical, effective, and—dare I say—kind of charmingly straightforward.

    Core Features

    • One-Touch Electric Start + Auto-Choke: Reliable startups with a friendly button press, backed by a manual recoil backup. 
    • Generac 224 cc OHV Engine: A dependable workhorse built for consistency. 
    • Long Runtime: Up to 20 hours at 25% load (about 14 hours at 50% load). 
    • Large Steel Fuel Tank: 5 gallons with a handy built-in gauge. 
    • Tough & Mobile Construction: Steel frame, 8” never-flat wheels, and a fold-down handle make movement a breeze. 
    • User Aids: Hour meter tracks usage; low-oil shutdown guards the engine; covered outlets protect from the elements. 
    • Outlets:
      (4) 120 V, 20 A GFCI (NEMA 5-20R)
      (1) 120 V, 30 A twist-lock (NEMA L5-30R)
