Connecting Generator To Main Electrical

Supply

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-throwtransfer 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.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

every start. Running engine low of oil or out of oil

I CAUTION: Always check engine oil level before could result in serious damage to the engine.

Adding Engine Oil

Your generator has been shipped without oil in the engine. Begin by removing the oil dipstick and plug. Start pouring the oil in slowly.

The engine will hold approximately 26 ounces of oil. To check the oil, clean and replace the dipstick. Do not screw the dip stick in when checking the oil level. Next, remove the dipstick to check the level. The oil dipstick is clearly marked with lines that tell you when the engine has enough oil. Do not fill above this point.

DIPSTICK

NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use a high quality detergent oil classified "For Service SF,SG,SH" rated SAE 30 weight. Use no special additives. Select the oil'sviscosity grade according to your expected operating temperatures.

Low Oil Shutdown

Your Sears generator engine is equipped with Low Oil Shutdown. Low Oil Shutdown is a safety device de-

signed 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 will automatically shut itself down and will not restart until the

oil is added. If the oil is low before start-up, the genera- tor will 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 fill fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" below the bottom of the filler neck to provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from engine and equipment before starting engine.
