Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Easier than carrying the generator Comment: I am not sure why others are having a problem with this kit. Based on reading these reviews I expected very little. I was pleasantly surprised by the completeness of the kit and the ease of installation. It included everything I needed and went on the generator just as pictured. As I had been using the generator it was not as easy because I couldn't place it on its end but otherwise it was straightforward. Frankly given the weight of the generator I think they should have included the wheels in the main package but I guess that is how they keep the costs of the main unit down. Customer Rating: Summary: O.K. but not good Comment: The wheel package was easy to install and wheels can come in handy, but the handle assembly is totally useless! There is no way to leverage the handle to simultaneously walk and pull the generator. You can only pull the end of the generator straight up with the handle, but then what? You cannot walk with it this way. The wheels are great but someone has to re-think the handle thing. Customer Rating: Summary: Fine example of terrible Chinese manufacturing Comment: As stated in other reviews, the nuts and bolts are non-standard: not 13mm, not 1/2-inch, not 14mm, not 9/16-inch. That means using an adjustable wrench.
In addition, the threaded portion of the u-bolts and rubber feet are heavily painted -- to the point that the nuts won't thread onto the bolts. I had to take acetone and a metal brush to remove the paint before the nuts would thread properly.
Instructions? almost unintelligible gibberish with phrasing, punctuation, and preposition use that doesn't make sense.
The pasts list does not correspond to the actual parts received.
The axle of the wheels is longer than the width of the generator frame, so the wheels will wobble.
The handle doesn't fasten tightly to the generator frame and slips, so the design is very, very, very poor.
Summary: the wheel kit is crappy Chinese manufacture and design, but without it the generator is impossibly heavy to move.
Amazon should really push back to the manufacturer about improving this product. Customer Rating: Summary: Cheap Junk Comment: Doesn't fit well on my Blue Max 4000W generator. Motor mounts are in the way so the rear axle is offset, and it interferes with mounting the front feet. The threads on the front feet are painted and cross-threaded the bolt. I wish I had just bought a generator with the wheels pre-installed! Customer Rating: Summary: Perfect fit Comment: I applied the wheel kit to an ETQ 4000 watt generator. With a few slight mods to the frame it fit perfectly.
