If while the engine is running, the oil gets low, it will
automatically shut itself down and will not restart until
the oil is added. If the oil is low before start-up, the
generator will 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 can
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.
B. Items 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.
MGP 670070
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 OFtool at a considerable
distance from the generator, a 3-wire extension cord
that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot recep-
tacle that accepts the tool's plug MUST be used in
order to reduce the risk of electrical shock. A cord of
adequate size must be used. A minimum of 12 gauge
wire size with at least a 20 amp draw can be used.
When amperage exceeds 20 amps a 10 gauge wire
size should be used.

Repair or replace damaged extension cords
Connecting Generator To Main E(ectrica(
Supp(y
Potential hazards exist when a ebctrba] generator is
connected to the main ebctrba( supply coming into
the house, It is at that point that the generator could
feed back into the utility company's system causing
possible electrocution of workers who are repairing
electrical lines. To avoid back feeding of electricity into
utility systems, a double=throw transfer switch
should be installed between the generator and utility
power. This device should be installed by a licensed
electrician and in compliance with all local electrical
codes.
NOTE: When installing a Doubb-Throw Transfer
Switch, a minimum of 10 gauge wiring must be used.
BEFORE START[NG ENG[NE
Always check engine oil level
before every start. Running
engine low of oil or out of oil could result in
serious damage to the engine.
Full
Replace dipstick firmly.
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use
a high quality detergent oil classified "For Service
SF,SG,SH,SJ" rated SAE 30 weight. Use no special
additives. Select the oil's viscosity grade according to
your expected operating temperatures.

Your engine governor maintains the constant operating
speed of your generator. DO NOT tamper with the en-
gine governor which is factory set for proper engine
speed.
Over-speeding your engine above factory high speed set-
ting can be dangerous and could possibly cause per-
sonai injury or property damage. If you believe the en-
gine is running too fast or slow, take your generator to a

hob.
Place rag over spark plug hob and pull the recoil a
few times to lubricate the combustion chamber.
Replace the spark plug, but do not connect the
spark plug wire.
NOTE: If a fuel stabilizer is not used, all gasoline must
be drained from the tank and carburetor to prevent gum
deposits from forming on these parts and causing pos-
sible malfunction of the engine.
Clean the generator as outlined in the Generator
Maintenance paragraph on page 18.
Check that cooling air slots and openings on
generator are open and unobstructed.
