TO START THE ENGINE
CAUTION
Exceeding generators wattage/amperage capacity
can damage generator and/or electrical devices
connected to it.
• See "Don't Overload Generator".
• Start generator and let engine stabilize before connecting
electrical loads.
• Connect electrical loads in OFF position, then turn ON
for operation.
• Turn electrical loads OFF and disconnect from generator
before stopping generator.
Disconnect all electrical loads from the generator. Use
the following start instruction steps by numerical order:
1. Make sure unit is on a level surface.
IMPORTANT: Failure to start and operate unit on a
level surface will cause the unit not to start or shut
down during operation.
2. Turn the fuel valve to the "On" position.
"Off"
Position
3. Place the choke lever in the "Choke" position.
4. Set the rocker switch to "On" position.
Rocker Switch
is shown in the
On position
5. Grasp the recoil handle and pull slowly until slight
resistance is felt. Then pull rapidly to start engine.
WARNING
Rapid retraction of starter cord (kickback)
will pull hand and arm toward engine faster
than you can let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains
could result.
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is
felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
• NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices
plugged in and turned on.
IMPORTANT: If engine floods, place choke lever in
"Run" position and crank until engine starts.
6. Move choke lever to "Run" position a short
distance at a time over several seconds in warm
weather or minutes in cold weather. Let engine
run smoothly before each change. Operate with
choke in "Run" position.
NOTE: If engine starts after 3 pulls but fails to run, or
if unit shuts down during operation, make sure unit is
on a level surface and check for proper oil level in
crankcase. This unit may be equipped with a low oil
protection device.
Running engines produce heat.
Temperature of muffler and nearby areas
can reach or exceed 150°F (65°C).
Severe burns can occur on contact.
Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass,
brush, ect. can catch fire.
• DO NOT touch hot surfaces.
• Allow equipment to cool before touching.
• The generator must be at least 5 feet from structures having
combustible walls and/or other combustible materials.
• Keep at least 3 feet of clearance on all sides of generator
for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.
• In the State of California a spark arrester is required by
law (Section 4442 of the California Public Resources
"On" Code). Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws
Position
apply on federal lands. If you equip the muffler with a
spark arrester, it must be maintained in effective working
order.You can order a spark arrester through your
authorized Sears service dealer.

To Stop the Engine

1. Unplug all electrical loads from generator panel
receptacles. NEVER start or stop engine with
electrical devices plugged in and turned on.
2. Let engine run at no-load for several minutes to
stabilize internal temperatures of engine and
generator.
3. Move rocker switch to "Off" position.
4. Move fuel valve to "Off" position.
DO NOT stop engine by moving choke lever to "Choke"
position. Backfire, fire or engine damage could occur.

Connecting Electrical Loads

• DO NOT connect 240 Volt loads to 120 Volt
receptacles.
• DO NOT connect 3–phase loads to generator.
• DO NOT connect 50 Hz loads to generator.
• Let engine stabilize and warm up for a few minutes
after starting.
• Plug in and turn on desired 120 and/or 240 Volt
AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads.
• DO NOT OVERLOAD THE GENERATOR. See
"Don't Overload Generator".
