Compare this illustration with your generator to familiarize yourself with the location of various controls and adjustments. Save the manual for future references. FUEL CAP 120 VOLT RECEPTACLES 240 VOLT RECEPTACLI circuit breaker: FUELTANK ENGINE RUN/STOP SWITCH AIR CLEANER CHOKE SWITCH ENGINE OIL FILL FUEL TANK- Capacity of 7 US gallons. CHOKE SWITCH- Lever used to start cold engine. ENGINE RUN/STOP SWITCH- Sets engine in starting mode for recoil starter - Stops running engine. ENGINE OIL FILL- Place where engine oil is poured. CIRCUIT BREAKER- Each receptacle has a circuit breaker to protect the generator from overloading. 120 VOLT RECEPTACLES- Used to supply 1800 watts of electrical power per receptacle or a combination of 3600 watts on the 120 side for operations. Protected by 15 amp circuit breaker. 240 VOLT TWISTLOCK RECEPTACLE- Used to supply 5000 watts of electrical power per receptacle for operations. Protected by 20 amp circuit breaker. AIR CLEANER- Includes filter element and foam pre-cleaner that limits the amount of dirt that enters the engine. RECEPTACLES Your generator is equipped with duplex 120 volt receptacles and a twistlock 240 volt receptacle. The unit is also equipped with a 15 amp circuit breaker for the 120 volt receptacles and a 20 amp circuit breaker for the 240 volt receptacle which is provided to protect the generator against electrical overload. If the circuit breaker trips, unplug electrical load from receptacle. Let circuit breaker cool down and then push circuit breaker button to reset. 11 — ENG MGP-679501 LOW OIL SHUTDOWN Your Craftsman generator engine is equipped with Low Oil Shutdown. Low Oil Shutdown is a safety device 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 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 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 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. NOTE: Some inductive appliances and tools will list 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) Always start your largest electric motor first, and then plug in other items, one at a time. NOTE: On 120-volt loads the maximum starting wattage should NOT exceed one half of the rated generator wattage. Example: a 5000 rated wattage generator = 2500 maximum starting wattage. The guide is provided to assist you in determining the appliances and tools that can be ran with the wattage capacity of your generator.

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 a 3-slot receptacle 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. An extension cord that is hot to the touch is overloaded. Repair or replace damaged extension cords immediately.
