GENERATOR CAPACWY
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 must be
calculated to match your generator wattage capacity.
Resistive load appliances such as light bulbs, TV's
and microwaves, have the same starting and running
wattage. The wattage used for calculating the capacity
can usually be found on each of these appliances.
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}
Inductive load appliances and tools such as refrigerators,
air compressors and washers require approximately 2 to
4 times the listed running wattage for starting the equip-
ment. 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: Always start your largest electric motor first, and
then plug in other items, one at a time.
The guide below is provided to assist you in determining
the appliances and tools that can be ran with the wattage
capacity of your generator.

OBTAmNING ELECTRBC_TY FROM
There are basicaiiy two ways to obtain eiectrbity form a
generator:
Use of extension cords directly form the generator
to the appiiance, iights, toois, etc.
Use of a doubie-throw transfer switch instaiied
directly to the main eHectrbaHsuppiy 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-dot 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
least a 20 amp draw can be used. When amperage
exceeds 20 amps a 10 gauge wire size should be used.
Connecting Generator To Main Eleetrieam
SuppJy
Potenfiai hazards exist when a eiectricai generator is con-
nected to the main eiectricai suppiy coming into the house.
It is at that point that the generator couid feed back into the
utiiity company's system causing possibie eiectrocution of
workers who are repairing electrical lines. To avoid back
feeding of electricity into utility systems, a double-threw
transfer switch should be installed between the genera-
tor and utility power. This device should be installed by a
licensed electrician and in compliance with all local electri-
cal codes.
NOTE: When installing a Double-ThrowTransfer Switch,
a minimum of 10 gauge wiring must be used.
CHARGBNG A BATTERY
iMPORTANT: Always use safety glasses, rubber gloves
and protective clothing while charging battery.
Your generator has the capability of recharging a 12-volt
storage or automotive battery. To recharge a 12-volt
battery, proceed as follows:
First, check the fluid level in all of the battery cells.
Add distilled water if necessary. Do not use tap
water,
Clean battery posts if necessary.
Connect battery charge canes to panel receptacle
Start the engine. Let it run while the battery charges.
When the battery is fully charged, stop the engine
and disconnect the battery charge canes from the
panel and battery. Batteries should not be charged
when the unit is unattended.

Air cooled engines run hotter than automotive engines. The
use of multi-viscosity oil such as (10W-30, etc.) in ambient
temperatures above 40°F (4°C) wiii result in higher than
normal oil consumption. If multi-viscosity oil is used, check
the oil level more frequently to prevent any posssible en-
gine damage due to lack or lubrication.
Use of SAES0 oii below 40°F (4°C) wiii result in hard start-
ing and possible engine damage due to inadequate lubri-
cation.
Lew Oil Shutdown
Your Craftsman generator engine is equipped with Low
Oil Shutdown. Low Oil Shutdown is a safetydevice
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 genera-
tor wiii not start until oil is added.
NOTE: The Low Oil Shutdown mechanism is very sensi-
tive. You must fill the engine to the full mark on the
dipstick to inactivate this safety device.
Gasoline
Your generator engine is 4 cycle. Use unleaded fuel only.
Never mix oil with gasoline.
CAUTION: Never fiii fuel tank completely. Fiii tank to
1/2" below the bottom of the filler neck to provide
space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from

Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to
maintaining your generator.
GENERATOR MAINTENANCE
Your generator shouHd be kept dean and dry at aHtimes.
The generator shouHd not be stored or operated in
enviroments that incHudes excessive moisture, dust or any
corrosive vapors. Ifthese substances are on the generator,
dean with a cloth or soft bristHebrush. Do not use a garden
hose or anything with water pressure to cHeanthe genera-
tor. Water may enter the cooling air slots and could possi-
bly damage the rotor, stator and the internal windings of the
gen head.
All adjustments in the Maintenance section of this manual
should be made at least once each season.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Changing Engine Oim
For a new engine, change oil after the first 5 hours of
operation. Thereafter, change oil after every 50 hours of
operation.
Change the oil while the engine is still warm. The oil will
flow freely and carry away more impurities. Make sure the
engine is level when filling, checking, or changing oil.
Change the oil as follows:
To keep dirt, grass clippings, etc., out of the engine,
clean the area around the drain plug and dipstick
before removing it.
Remove the oil drain plug and dipstick. Tilt the engine
slightly towards the oil drain to obtain better drainage.
Be sure to allow ample time for complete drainage.
Reinstall the drain plug. Make sure it is tightened
securely.
Fill the crankcase with new oil of the proper type, to
the Full mark on the dipstick. Always check the level
with the dipstick before adding more oil.
Reinstall the oil fill cap or plug and tighten securely.

Service Air Cleaner
NOTE: Do not use petroleum solvents, e.g., kerosene,
which will cause the cartridge to deteriorate. Do not use
pressurized air to clean cartridge. Pressurized air can
damage the cartridge.
To service air cleaner follow these steps:
1. Unscrew cover screws. Remove cover and air
cleaner assembly.
2. Remove cartridge from cover, then retainer
(if equipped) and pre-deaner.
To service pre-deaner, wash in liquid detergent and
water. Squeeze dry in a clean cloth. Saturate in engine
oil. Squeeze in clean, absorbent cloth to remove all
excess oil. Replace if very dirty or damaged.
To service cartridge, clean by tapping gently on a flat
surface. Do not oil cartridge. Replace if dirty or dam-
aged.
3. Reassemble pre-deaner or retainer (if equipped.)
Place in cover with pre-cleaner mesh side toward
cartridge. Place cartridge in retainer in cover.
4. Push cover and air cleaner assembly squarely onto
base (tabs must be in slots, if equipped) and hold
firmly. Tighten cover screws securely.
Do not clean engine with a forceful spray of water
because water could contaminate fuel system. With
a brush or cloth clean finger guard after every use to
prevent engine damage caused by overheating.
14 -- ENG
Before running engine, clean muffler area to remove all
combustible debris. Clean and Replace Spark Plug
Change the spark plug every 100 hours of operation or
once each year, whichever comes firsL This will help
your engine to start easier and run better.
RESISTOR
Carburetor
The carburetor of your generator is pre-set at the factory.
The carburetor should not be tampered with. if your gen-
erator is used at an altitude in excess of 4000 feet perfor-
mance may be affected. If so consult with your nearest
Sears Service Center regarding high altitude set changes.
GovePnoP
Your engine governor maintains the constant operating
speed of your generator. DO NOT tamper with the engine
governor which is factory set for proper engine speed.
Over-speeding your engine above factory high speed set-
ting can be dangerous and couUd possibly cause personal
injury or property damage. If you believe the engine is run-
ning too fast or slow, take your generator to a Authorized
Sears Service Center for repair and adjustment.
CAUTION: Low engine speeds impose a heavy load
on the engine and when sufficient power is not avail-
able the engine life could be shorten.
If you are going to store your generator for more than 30
days, use the following information as a guide to prepare
the generator for storage.
STORAGE BNSTRUCTBONS
CAUTION: Never store generator with fuel in the
tank indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas,
where fumes can reach an open flame, spark or pilot
light as on a furnace, water heater clothes dryer or
other gas appliances.
Engine Preparation
Add fuel stabilizer to fuel tank to minimize the
formation of fuel gum deposits during storage.
Run engine at bast 10 minutes after adding stabilizer
to allow it to enter the fuel system.
Next shut off engine.
Disconnect the spark plug wire and remove the
spark plug.
Add one teaspoon of oii through the spark piug hob.
Place rag over spark plug hole 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
possible malfunction of the engine.
Generator
Clean the generator as outlined on Page 14 (Generator
Maintenanc@
Check that cooiing air dots and openings on generator
are open and unobstructed.

be premature wear. Such wear, when caused by dirt, dust,
spark plug cleaning grit, or other abrasive material that has
entered the engine because of improper maintenance, is not
covered by warranty.
