Generator

As anyone installed a generator in their Cardinal? I have a 3030 and the floor in the front compartment looks awful weak to hold a 300 pound generator.

I have a 2011 Cardinal 3450 RL with an Onan 5500 LP generator and six golf cart batteries next to it, no problem.

I assume the generator and batteries adore in the front compartment. Did whom ever installed the generator add any support to hold the generator?

I failed to mention that I did install a brace between the battery and generator compartment when I added the other four six volt batteries. One inch angle iron from the upper frame to the lower metal pan/ floor that supports the generator and batteries.
