This product is not equipped with a spark arresting muffmer. If the product wiii be used around flammable
materials, or on land covered with materials such as agricultural crops, forest, brush, grass, or other similar items,
then an approved spark arrester must be installed and is legally required in the state of California. It is a violation
of California statutes section 130050 and/or sections 4442 and 4443 of the California Public Resources Code,
unless the engine is equipped with a spark arrestor, as defined in section 4442, and maintained in effective
working order. Spark arresters are also required on some U. S. Forest service land and may also be legally
required under other statutes and ordinances.
This product may contain chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. This warning is given in compliance with California Proposition 65, as detectable amounts of

Inspect extension cords before
use and replace with new cord if
required.

Use of undersize extension cords
could result in overheating of the
wires or attached items, resulting in
fire.

Use proper size (wire gauge)
cordset for application see chart in
the Assembly section of this
manual.

Use of ungrounded cordsets could
prevent operation of circuit breakers
and result in electrical shock.

Always use a cordset having a
grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. DO NOT use an
ungrounded plug.

Accidental leakage of electrical
current could charge conductive
surfaces in contact with the generator.

Place generator on low conductivity surface such as a concrete
slab.

ALWAYS operate generator a
minimum of six feet from any
conductive surface.
Improper connection of items to
generator.

Exceeding the load capacity of the
generator by attaching too many
items, or items with very high load
ratings to it could result in overheating
of some items or their attachment
wiring resulting in fire or electrical
shock.

Read the load rating chart and
instructions in the Wattage Calculation section. Make sure that the
summation of electrical loads for
aii attachments does not exceed
the load rating of the generator.

Operation of unit when damaged,
or with guards or panels removed.

Attempting to use the unit when it has
been damaged, or when it is not
functioning normally could result in
fire or electrocution.

Do not operate generator with
mechanical or electrical problem.
Have unit repaired by an Authorized Service Center.

HAZARD

WHAT COULD HAPPEN

HOW TO PREVENT iT

Attempting to fiii the fuei tank whiie
the engine is running.

GasoUine and gasoline vapors can
become ignited by coming in contact
with hot components
such as the
muffler, engine exhaust gases, or from
an electrical spark.

Turn engine off and allow it to cool
before adding fuel to the tank. Equip
area of operation with a fire extinguisher certified to handle gasoline
or fuel fires.

Sparks, fire, hot objects

Cigarettes, sparks, fires, or other hot
objects can cause gasoline or gasoline vapors to ignite.

Add fuel to tank

Improperly stored fuel could lead to accidental ignition. Fuel improperly secured could get into the hands of chip
dren or other unqualified persons.

Store fuel in a OSHA approved container designed to hold gasoline.
Store container in secure location to
prevent use by others.

Materials placed against or near the
generator or operating the generator in
areas where the temperature exceeds
104 ° R ambient (such as storage rooms
or garages) can interfere with its proper
ventilation features causing overheating and possible ignition of the materials or buildings.

Operate generator in a clean, dry,
well ventilated area a minimum of
four feet from any building, object
or waii. DO NOT OPERATE UNIT
INDOORS OR iN ANY CONFINED
AREA.

Tampering with factory set engine
speed settings.

Engine speed has been factory set to
provide safe operation. Tampering with
the engine speed adjustment could result in overheating of attachments and
could cause a fire.

Never attempt to "speed=up" the
engine to obtain more performance.
Both the output voltage and frequency will be thrown out of standard by this practice, endangering
attachments and the user.

Overfilling the fuel tank - fuel spilP
age.

Spilled fuel and its vapors can become
ignited from hot surfaces or sparks.

Use care in filling the tank to avoid
spilling fuel. Make sure fuel cap is
secured tightly and check engine
for fuel leaks before starting

LOW OraLSHUTDOWN
Your Sears generator engine is equipped with Low Oil
Shutdown. Low Oil Shutdown is a safety device
designed to protect your engine from damage in the
event the oil level in the crankcase is low.
If while the engine is running, the oil gets low, it wiii
automatically shut itself down and wiii not restart until
the oil is added. If the oil is low before start-up, the
generator wiii not start until oil is added.
NOTE: The Low Oil Shutdown mechanism is very sensitive. You must fill the engine to the full mark on the
dipstick to inactivate this safety device.

GENERATOR

CAPACmTY

Exceeding the rated capacity of your generator carl
result in serious damage to your generator and
connected electrical devices. You should observe the
following to prevent overloading the unit:
Starting and running wattage requirements should
always be calculated when matching a generators
wattage capacity to the appliance or tool.
There are two types of electrical appliances that
can be powered by your generator:
A.

Items such as radios, light bulbs, television
sets, and microwaves have a "resistive load".
Starting wattage and running wattage are the
same.
Rtems such as refrigerators, air compressors,
washer, dryer, and hand tools that use an
electrical motor have an "inductive load".
Inductive load appliances and tools require
approximately 2 to 4 times the listed wattage
for starting the equipment. This initial load
only lasts for a few seconds on start-up but is
very important when figuring your total
wattage to be used.

NOTE: Some inductive appliances and tools wiii iist
on the motor name plate, the starting and running
voltage and amperage requirements. Use the following formula to convert voltage and amperage to
wattage: (Volts X Amp = Watts}
Always start your largest electric motor first, and
then plug in other items, one at a time.

OBTAiNiNG
ELECTRiCiTY
GENERATOR

There are basically two ways to obtain electricity form
a generator:
Use of extension cords directly from the generator to the appliance, lights, tools, etc.
Use of a double-throw transfer switch installed
directly to the main electrical supply outside of
the house.
Extension

Cord

When using an appliance or tool at a considerable
distance from the generator, a 3-wire extension cord
that has a 3-blade grounding plug and 3-slot receptacle that accepts the tool's plug should be used. A
cord of adequate size must be used. A minimum of
12 gauge wire size with at bast a 20 amp draw can
be used. When amperage exceeds 20 amps a 10
gauge wire size should be used.

NOTE: On 120-volt loads the maximum starting wattage should NOT exceed one half of the rated generator
wattage. Example: a 5250 rated wattage generator =
2625 maximum starting wattage.
The guide is provided to assist you in determining the
appliances and tools that can be ran with the wattage
capacity of your generator.

Oil

Your generator has been shipped without oil in the
engine. Begin by removing the oil dipstick and plug.
Start pouring the oil in slowly.

Open the fuel shut-off valve. Turn counter clockwise until the valve stops.

The engine will hold approximately 26 ounces of oil. To
check the oil, clean and replace the dipstick. Do not
screw the dip stick in when checking the oil level. Next,
remove the dipstick to check the level. The oil dipstick
is clearly marked with lines that tell you when the
engine has enough oil. Do net fi_ above this point.

On the engine there is a ON/OFF switch located on
the front panel of the engine. Place this switch to
the "ON" position.

NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use a
