Power You Can Rely On
The HY10000LEK-2 is driven by a 459cc / 16hp single-cylinder 4-stroke engine, producing up to 8kW / 10kVA of power. Its robust OHV air-cooled design ensures consistent performance on demanding jobs, whether on-site, in commercial settings, or at home.
Built for Tough Environments
With a rugged open-frame construction and weighing 94kg, this generator is designed to handle daily use on worksites and other challenging environments. Its sturdy build gives it the resilience needed for both heavy-duty tools and sensitive equipment.
Portable by Design
Despite its size, moving the HY10000LEK-2 around is straightforward. The built-in wheel kit and folding handles allow it to be positioned exactly where power is needed, whether outdoors, around a workshop, or between narrow site access points.
Quiet Operation, Even at Full Load
Thanks to modern low-noise engine technology and an improved muffler system, the generator produces just 70 dBA at 7 m. This helps minimise disruptions to nearby homes, workplaces, or site teams, making it suitable for a range of locations.
Stable Power for Sensitive Equipment
Fitted with a Hyundai copper-wound AVR alternator, the HY10000LEK-2 maintains voltage within ±3 % of 230 V. This clean power output makes it suitable for running sensitive electronics like laptops and TVs, while still being tough enough for power tools and machinery.
Sockets for Every Job
The unit features 1 × 230 V 32 A and 2 × 115 V 16 A sockets, giving plenty of connection options for both domestic and site equipment. The sockets are positioned on the control panel side to reduce the risk of damage when moving the generator.
Clear Monitoring and Easy Starting
A digital display meter shows hours run, output voltage, and frequency, making it easy to keep track of servicing intervals and performance. The electric start switch offers quick start-up, while a recoil option provides reliable backup. The battery is recharged while the generator runs, so it’s always ready when needed.
Low Maintenance, High Protection
With low service requirements and full Hyundai UK parts backup, the HY10000LEK-2 is straightforward to own and maintain. It features automatic low oil shutdown to protect the engine, and overload protection to cut off power if the maximum load is exceeded.
Versatile Applications
Ideal for site, trade, commercial, or home use, this generator can power lighting rigs, tools, garages, workshops, or sensitive electronics. It must always be used outdoors due to the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Long-Term Storage Tips
For longer periods of storage, it’s recommended to either run the engine dry, drain the fuel, or use a stabilising additive. Modern unleaded petrol can degrade over time and clog the carburettor, which may cause starting issues later.
Warranty and Support
The HY10000LEK-2 comes with a 3-year Hyundai domestic warranty* or 1-year commercial warranty* (terms apply), along with full UK parts and service support for added peace of mind.
