Supplier told me it would power my 3000w vac but best to stagger the three motors when powering on. I'd think the 4200w vac would be too much for mist things like extension leads etc.

I think your generator is around 5.2kw so you shouldnt have a problem for short bursts,
I have a 4.8kw vac and rarely need to run more than 2 motors,
The link below has a kva to kw converter.
