The CPSC and Generac now recall Generac® and DR® 6500 Watt and 8000 Watt portable generators.  An unlocked handle on these units may pinch consumers’ fingers against the frame as the generator is moved possibly leading to finger crushing or amputation.  About 321,160 of these generators were sold in the US and 4,575 were sold in Canada.  Stop using these generators until a locking pin has been inserted to secure the handle in place before and after moving the generator.   For a more secure, permanent fix, contact Generac for a free repair kit by calling 1-844-242-3493 or online at general.com/handleguard.
