FULL POWER SWITCH
Your Craftsman generator has a full power switch on the
control panel. This switch has two positions: 120 VOLT
ONLY, and 120/240 VOLT.
120 Position
When placed in the 120 position, (Shown below) every re
ceptacle on the panel will be converted to a 120 volt recep
tacle. 240-volt power is not available. This position allows
full capacity of the generator to be received by using all
120-volt receptacles. While in the 120 position, each re
ceptacle has the ability to reach the maximum 4650 surge
wattage for inductive motors that require 4650 watts or be
low to start.
GENERATOR CAPACITY
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 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 will list on the motor
name plate, the starting and running voltage and amperage
requirements. Use the following formulato 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.

OBTAINING ELECTRICITY FROM GENERATOR
There are basically two ways to obtain electricity form a
generator:
® Use of extension cords directly form 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.
® Start the engine. Let it run while the battery charges.
® When the battery is fully charged, stop the engine
and disconnect the battery charge cables from the
panel and battery. Batteries should not be charged
when the unit is unattended.
NOTE: Dd not use t±ifi unit to chaiga any 6-volt tatteries.Do
not use the unit to crank an engine having a discharged
tstbsty.
Extension Cord
When using an appliance or tool at a considerable distance
from the generator, a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3blade 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
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 Electrical Sypply
Potential hazards exist when a electrical generator is con
nected to the main electrical 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 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-Throw Transfer Switch,
a minimum of 10 gauge wiring must be used.
CHARGING 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 cables to panel receptacle.
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE
CAUTION: 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.
Automatic Idle Control
The automatic idle control switch, when in the ON posi
tion, allows the engine to run at lower speed when there
is no load on the generator. This will lower the engine
noise, save on fuel consumption and engine life. When in
the OFF position the engine will run at 3600 RPM’s
continuous with or without a load.
OFF
NOTE: The idle con mmime OFF position when
operating large motor loads (Refrigerators, freezers, etc.) or
voltage sensitive electronic equipment (TV, computers, etc.)
Engine Oil
Your unit has been shipped without oil in the engine. A
bottle of SAE 30 weight oil is included in the cart.on.
Remove oil dip stick located on the side of engine. The
oil dip stick is clearly marked with a line that tells you
when unit has enough oil. Do not fill above this point.

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.
• 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.

Before running engine, clean muffler area to remove all
combustible debris.
SERVICE ADJUSTMENT
Clean and 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.
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.
Go¥ernor
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.
STORAG
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 INSTRUCTIONS
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 least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer
to allow it to enter the fuel system.
• Next shut off engine.
Over-speeding your engine above factory high speed set
ting can be dangerous and could 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.
• Disconnect the spark plug wire and remove the
spark plug.
• Add one teaspoon of oil through the spark plug hole.
® 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
Maintenance)
• Check that cooling air slots and openings on generator
are open and unobstructed.

Briggs & Stratton Emission Control Defects Warranty Provisions
3. No Charge
Repair or replacement of any Warranted Part will be performed
at no charge to the owner, including diagnostic labor which leads
to the determination that a Warranted Part is defective, if the
diagnostic work is performed at an Authorized B&S Service

Authorized B&S Service Dealer as listed in the “Yellow Pages”
under “Engines, Gasoline,” “Gasoline Engines,” “Lawn
Mowers,” or similar category.

liable to cover failures of Warranted Parts caused by the use of
add-on, non-original, or modified parts.
5. Maintenance
Any Warranted Part which is not scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance or which is scheduled only for regular
inspection to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary” shall
be warranted as to defects for the warranty period. Any
Warranted Part which is scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance shat! be warranted as to defects only for the period
of time up to the first scheduled replacement for that part. Any

Briggs & Stratton welcomes warranty repair and apologizes
to you for being inconvenienced. Any Authorized Service
Dealer may perform warranty repairs. Most warranty repairs
are handled routinely, but sometimes requests for warranty
service may not be appropriate. For example, warranty would
not apply if engine damage occurred because of misuse, lack
of routine maintenance, shipping, handling, warehousing or
improper ¡nstallation. Similarly, warranty is void if the serial
number of the engine has been removed or the engine has
been altered or modified.
If a customer differs with the decision of the Service*Dealer, an
investigation will be made to determine whether the warranty
applies. Ask the Service Dealer to submit al! supporting facts to
his Distributor or the Factory for review. If the Distributor or the
Factory decides that the claim is justified, the customer will be
fully reimbursed for those items that are defective. To avoid
misunderstanding which might occur between the customer
and the Dealer, listed below are some of the causes of engine
failure that the warranty does not cover.
Improper maintenance:
The life of an engine depends upon the conditions under
which it operates, and the care it receives. Some applications,
such as tillers, pumps and rotary mowers, are very often used
in dusty or dirty conditions, which can cause what appears to
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.
This warranty covers engine related defective material
and/or workmanship only, and not replacement or refund
of the equipment to which the engine may be moynted.
Nor does the warranty extend to repairs required
because of:
4.
Parts which are scored or broken because an engine was
operated with insufficient or contaminated lubricating oil,
or an incorrect grade of lubricating oil (check oil level daily
or after every 8 hours of operation. Refill when necessary
and change at recommended intervals.) Read “Owner’s
Manual.”
5.
Repair or adjustment of associated parts or assemblies
such as clutches, transmissions, remote controls, etc.,
which are not manufactured by Briggs & Stratton.
6.
Damage or wear to parts caused by dirt, which entered
the engine because of improper air cleaner maintenance,
re-assembly, or use of a non-original air cleaner element
or cartridge. (At recommended intervals, dean and re-oil
the Oil-Foam® element or the foam pre-cleaner, and
replace the cartridge.) Read “Owner’s Manual.”
7.
Parts damaged by overspeeding, or overheating caused
by grass, debris, or dirt, which plugs or clogs the cooling
fins, or flywheel area, or damage caused by operating the
engine in a confined area without sufficient ventilation.
(Clean fins on the cylinder, cylinder head and flywheel at
recommended intervals.) Read “Owner's Manual.”
8
Engine or equipment parts broken by excessive vibration
caused by a loose engine mounting, loose cutter blades,
unbalanced blades or loose or unbalanced impellers,
improper attachment of equipment to engine crankshaft,
overspeeding or other abuse in operation.
9. A bent or broken crankshaft, caused by striking a solid
object with the cutter blade of a rotary lawn mower, or
excessive v-belt tightness.
10. Routine tune-up or adjustment of the engine.
11. Engine or engine component failure, i.e., combustion
chamber, valves, valve seats, valve guides, or burned
starter motor windings, caused by the use of alternate
fuels such as, liquified petroleum, natural gas, altered
gasolines, etc.
1. PROBLEMS CAUSED BY PARTS THAT ARE NOT
ORIGINAL BRIGGS & STRATTON PARTS.
2. Equipment controls or installations that prevent starting,
cause unsatisfactory engine performance, or shorten
engine life. (Contact equipment manufacturer.)
3. Leaking carburetors, dogged fuel pipes, sticking valves,
or other damage, caused by using contaminated or stale
fuel. (Use clean, fresh, lead-free gasoline and Briggs &
Stratton gasoline stabilizer, Part No. 5041.)
