HOW TO USE YOUR GENERATOR
If you have any problems operating your Generator,
please call the Generator hetpline at 1-800-222-3136.
GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
The National Electrical Code requires that the frame
and external electrically conductive parts of this
generator be properly connected to an approved earth
ground. Local electrical codes may also require proper
grounding of the unit. For that purpose, a grounding
wing nut is provided on the base of the cradle.
Grounding Wing Nut
.Generally, connecting a No. 12 AWG (American Wire
Gauge) stranded copper wire to the grounding wing
nut and to an earth-driven copper or brass grounding
rod (electrode) provides adequate protection against
electrical shock. However, local codes may vary
widely. Consult with a local electrician for grounding
requirements in your area.
Proper grounding of generator wilt help prevent
electrical shock in the event of a ground fault condition
in the generator or in connected electrical devices.
Proper grounding also helps dissipate static electricity,
which often builds up in ungrounded devices.
BEFORE STARTING THE GENERATOR
To operate the engine you must do the following:
Add Engine Oil
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase in the
future, use onIy high quality detergent oil rated with
API service classification SF or SG or higher rated
SAE 30 weight. Use no special additives. Select the
oil's viscosity grade according to your expected
operating temperature.
colder _ 32°F,, _ warmer 1
5W30 • SAE 30 i
Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30, etc.)
improve starting in cold weather, this type oil will result
in increased oil consumption when used above 32°F.
Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid
possible damage from running low on oil
Place generator on a level surface.
=Clean area around oil fill and remove oil dipstick.
o Wipe dipstick clean.
°Pour oil into oil fill opening until oil reaches FULL
mark on the dipstick Do not overfil!!
Add Gasoline
WARNING NEVER fill fuel tank indoors.
NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or
hot. DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke when
filling the fuel tank.
CAUTION: Do not overfi!l the fuel tank.
Always leave room for expansion.
regular UNLEADED gasoline with the
Generator engine. Do not use premium gasoline.
Do not mix oil with gasoline.
=Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.
•Add unleaded regular gasoline, slowly to fuel tank.
Be careful not to overfill. Allow about 1/2" of tank
space between bottom of fill opening and top of fuel
for fuel expansion.
- Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.
IMPORTANT: tt is important to prevent gum deposits
from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the
carburetor, fuel filter, fue! hose or tank during storage.
Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels
(called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract
moisture which leads to separation and formation of
acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine
problems, the fue! system should be emptied before
storage of 30 days or longer. See "Storage" on
page 12. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner
products in the fuel tank or permanent damage may
occur.
TO START THE ENGINE
A WARNING: Never start or stop engine withelectrical devices plugged into the panel
receptacles and turned on.

Note: If the engine fails to start after three (3) pulls,
check for proper oil level in crankcase. Unit is
equipped with alow oil shutdown system.
Note: If engine fires, but does not continue to run,
move choke lever to "Full Choke" and repeat starting
instructions.
CAUTION! Never run engine indoors or in
enclosed poorly ventilated areas. Engine
exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an
odorless and deadly gas.
WARNING! temperature of muffler and nearby
areas may exceed 150°F (65°C). Avoid these
areas.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
• Unplug all electrical loads from generator panel
receptacles. Never start or stop engine with
electrical devices plugged in and turned on.
• Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to
stabilize the internal temperatures of engine and
generator.
• Move engine control switch to Off (o) Position.
• Close the fuel shut-off valve
CONNECTING ELECTRICAL LOADS
- Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes
after starting.
,Plug in and turn on the desired 120 and/or 240 Volt
AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.
°Do not connect 240 Volt loads to the 120 Volt
duplex receptacles
•Do not connect 3-phase loads to the receptacles.
° Do not connect 50 Hz loads to the receptacles.
•DO NOT OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR. Add up
the rated watts (or Amps) of all loads to be
connected at one time. This total should not be
greater than the rated wattage/amperage capacity
of the generator. See "Don't Overload the
Generator" on Page 9.
LOW OIL LEVEL SHUTDOWN SYSTEM
Sensing Low Oil Level
tf the system senses a low oil level during operation,
the engine shuts down. If the engine shuts down by
itself and it has enough gasoline in the fuel tank, check
oil level.
Restarting
If you attempt to restart the engine after such a
shutdown and have not corrected the engine oil level,
the engine will not start. Check the oil and refill
according to the instructions on page 7.

DON'T OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR
Overloading a generator in excess of its rated wattage
capacity can result in damage to the generator and to
connected electrical devices. Observe the following, to
prevent overloading the unit:
*Add up the total wattage of ali electrical devices to
be connected at one time. This total should NOT be
greater than the generator's wattage capacity.
°The rated wattage of lights can be taken from light
bulbs. The rated wattage of tools, appliances and
motors can usually be found on a data plate or
decal affixed to the device.
*If the appliance, tool or motor does not give
wattage, multiply volts times ampere rating to
determine watts (volts x amps = watts).
-Some electric motors, such as induction types,
require about two and a half times more watts of
power for starting than for running. This surge of
power lasts only a few seconds when starting such
motors. Make sure you allow for this high starting
wattage when selecting electrical devices to
connect to your generator. First, figure the watts
needed to star_ the largest motor. Add to that figure
the running watts of all other connected loads.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
The Generator warranty does not cover items that
have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence.
To receive full value from the warranty, operator must
maintain unit as instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to
properly maintain your Generator.
All adjustments in the Service and Adjustments section
of this manual should be made at least once each
season. Follow the requirements in the "Maintenance
Schedule" chart above.
Note: Once a year you should clean or replace the
spark plug and replace the air filter. A new spark plug
and clean air filter assure proper fueFair mixture and
help your engine run better and last longer.
GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
Generator maintenance consists of keeping the unit
clean and dry. Operate and store the unit in a clean
dry environment where it will not be exposed to
excessive dust, dirt, moisture or any corrosive vapors.
Cooling air slots in the generator must not become
clogged with snow, leaves, or any other foreign
material.
Check the cleanliness of the generator frequently and
clean when dust, dirt, oil, moisture or other foreign
substances are visible on its exterior surface.
Note: We DO NOT recommend using a garden hose
to clean generator. Water can enter the engine fuel
system and cause problems, tn addition, if water
enters the generator through cooling air slots, some of
the water will be retained in voids and cracks of the
rotor and stator winding insulation. Water and dirt
buildup on the generator internal windings will
eventually decrease the insulation resistance of these
windings.
CLEAN THE GENERATOR
_AUTION: Never Insert any object or tool
through the air cooling slots, even if the
engine is not running.
-Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
,, A soft, bristle brush may be used to loosen caked
on dirt, oil, etc.
o A vacuum cleaner may be used to pick up Ioose dirt
and debris.
10
Low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) may be
used to blow away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and
openings on the generator. These openings must
be kept clean and unobstructed.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
_ANGER: When working on the generator
always disconnect spark plug wire from spark
plug and keep it away from spark plug.
Checking Oil Level
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at
least every 5 hours of operation. Keep oil level
maintained.
Changing Engine Oil
Change oil after first 5 hours of operation. Change oil &
oil filter every 25 hours thereafter, tf you are using your
generator under extremely dirty or dusty conditions, or
in extremely hot weather, change oil more often.
Change oil while engine is still warm from running, as
follows:
• Clean area around oi! drain plug.
•Remove oil drain plug and oil fill plug and drain oil
completely into a suitable container.
o When oil has completely drained, Install oil drain
plug and tighten securely.
• Fill oil sump with recommended oil. (See "Before
Starting the Engine" on page 7 for oil
recommendations)
° Install the oil fill plug and tighten securely.
• Wipe up any spilled oil.
Clean/Replace Spark Plug
Change the spark plug every 100 hours of operation or
once each year, whichever comes first. This will help
your engine to start easier and run better. See
"Specifications" for proper spark plug.
oClean area around spark plug.
° Remove and inspect spark plug.
,Check electrode gap with wire feeler gauge and set
spark plug gap to 0.030 inch (0.76mm) if
necessary.
oReplace spark plug if electrodes are pitted, burned
or porcelain is cracked.
Service Air Cleaner
Your engine will not run properly and may be damaged
if you run it using a dirty air cleaner.
Clean or replace the air cleaner every 100 hours of
operation or once a year, whichever comes first. Clean
or replace more often if operating under dusty or dirty
conditions. Replacements are available at your local
Sears Authorized Service Center

filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture
which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system
of an engine while in storage.
To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Follow
these instructions:
Protect Fuel System
WARNING: Drain fuel into approved
container outdoors, away from open flame. Be
sure engine is cool. Do not smoke.
•Remove all gasoline from the fuel tank to prevent
gum deposits from forming on these parts and
causing possible malfunction of engine.
oRun engine until engine stops from lack of fuel.
Change Oil
While engine is still warm, drain oil from crankcase.
Refill with recommended grade.
Oil Cylinder Bore
• Remove spark plug and pour about 1/2 ounce
(15ml) of engine oil into the cylinder. Cover spark
plug hole with rag, Crank slowly to distribute oil.
,_ CAUTION! Avoid spray from spark plug hole
when cranking engine slowly.
-Install spark plug. Do not connect spark plug wire.
GENERATOR:
•Clean the generator as outlined on page 10 ("Clean
the Generator").
° Check that cooling air slots and openings on
generator are open and unobstructed.
OTHER STORAGE TIPS:
° Do not store gasoline from one season to another.
° Replace your gasoline can if your can starts to rust.
Rust and/or di_ in your gasoline will cause
problems.
- If possible, store your unit indoors and cover it to
give protection from dust and dirt. BE SURE TO
EMPTY THE FUEL TANK.
Cover your unit with a suitable protective cover that
does not retain moisture.
Store generator in clean, dry area,
,_ DANGER: NEVER cover your Generator
while engine and exhaust area are warm.

CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board ("CARB") and Sears Roebuck and Co., USA, are pleased to explain the
Emission Control System Warranty on your 1995 and later lawn and garden equipment engine. In California new
utility and lawn and garden equipment engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State's
stringent anti-smog standards. Sears must warrant the emission control system on your lawn and garden
equipment engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect, or improper
