I had no idea just how tiny and CUTE the Witte BD is!!!!
This is the first BD I've seen with a person to show scale.
I thought it was just a little smaller than my CD, but was I WRONG!!!

Nice Witte.  I covet the electric start.

My manual reads under "Fuel:  Use no crude."  That's it.  I still grin every time I read or repeat it.

Just so you know.  The fellow in the video is probably about 6'6" and weighs in around 250 pounds.  OK - I'm guessing but the BD is not a small engine.  The BD, cast engine stand/oil sump and generator weigh in at near 1500 lbs.   The CD is the big sister.

So, who is the good home?
