Diesel is far safer to handle as it's combustible, as opposed to explosive, in fact on many job sites, petrol is not allowed due to the safety concerns. Diesel fuel stores better then petrol and when it comes to consumption, the higher compression ratio of the diesel engines results in higher efficiency, returning longer run times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese generators by Paddock offer a quality single phase generator coupled to a well proven diesel engine. Having these units packaged in a enclosure which significantly reduces the noise level makes these units pleasant to work around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDiesel Engine\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese generators run a 10 hp, air cooled diesel engine and has been in circulation throughout the world including Australia for many years. These engines offer exceptional efficiency and power from a small, low weight, air cooled diesel engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt should be noted, air cooled diesel engines are better suited to temporary and backup power supply demands. Whilst this generator can be run continuously, it will not last as long as a water cooled diesel engine. Water cooled diesel engines are often 5 times the cost and this limitation needs to be respected when making your decision. For the best reliability, users should plan for a major engine service every 1,000 run hours with air cooled diesel engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-start=\"2718\" data-end=\"2746\"\u003eWhy Choose Paddock?\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2747\" data-end=\"2995\"\u003ePaddock equipment is built tough for Australian users who demand reliability, performance, and unbeatable value.
