OPERATION
1.Location
DANGER! Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that could
kill you in minutes. You CANNOT smell it, see it, or taste it. Even if you do
not smell exhaust fumes, you could still be exposed to carbon monoxide gas.
Operate portable generator only outdoors and downwind at least 20 ft.(6 m)
from occupied spaces with exhaust pointed away to reduce the risk of carbon
monoxide accumulating. Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or
plug-in carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up according to the
manufacturer’s instructions. Smoke alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
Do not run this portable generator inside homes, garages, basements,
crawlspaces, sheds, or other partially-enclosed spaces even if using fans or
opening doors and windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can quickly build
up in these spaces and can linger for hours, even after this product has shut
off. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, weak or your home’s carbon monoxide
alarm sounds, get to fresh air right away. Call emergency services. You may
have carbon monoxide poisoning. Carbon Monoxide Alarm(s) Install carbon
monoxide alarms inside your home. Without working carbon monoxide alarms, you
will not realize you are getting sick and dying from carbon monoxide
poisoning.
Prevent Carbon Monoxide (CO) Poisoning Use outdoors and downwind at least 20
ft. (6 m) from any home. Point exhaust away from all homes and occupied
spaces. Install CO alarms inside your home.

Low Oil Shutdown
The portable generator is equipped with a low oil shutdown. If the oil level
drops below the minimum required level, a sensor will activate an internal
switch stopping the engine. If the engine shuts off and the oil level is
within specifications, check to see if generator is sitting at an angle. Place
portable generator on an even surface to correct this. If engine fails to
start, the oil level may not be high enough to deactivate the internal low oil
level switch. Make sure the sump is completely full of oil to the upper limit
(H). Do not operate engine until oil level issue is corrected. Contact
CRAFTSMAN customer service.
Add Gasoline
WARNING! Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable which could cause burns or fire resulting in death or serious injury.
Turn generator engine OFF and let it cool at least 2 minutes before removing fuel cap. Do Not refuel or move generator when engine is running. Move generator outdoors prior to adding or draining fuel Keep fuel away from any ignition sources. Do not overfill tank, allow space for fuel expansion. If any fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine Check and replace fuel lines, tank, cap, and fittings prior to each use if any damage or leaks are found.
Fuel must meet these requirements:
Clean, fresh, unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 87 octane. For high altitude
use, see Operation at High Altitude. Gasoline with no more than 10% ethanol is
acceptable.

OPERATION
4. Connecting Electrical Loads
This portable generator has been pretested and adjusted to handle its full
capacity. The voltage is regulated using an automatic voltage regulator (AVR)
. Readjusting the AVR will void warranty. The duplex receptacle is equipped
with GFCI protection. The GFCI protects against electric shock that may be
caused if you become a path which electricity travels to reach earth. Even
with a GFCI you may feel a shock, but the GFCI cuts power quickly so an
average person should not suffer any injury. Manual test GFCI while generator
is running to verify internal contacts will function
Push the test button. The reset button will pop out, which should cut power to
outlet. Press the reset button until it locks in the depressed position. If
the GFCI does not reset as described do not use the receptacles. Call
CRAFTSMAN customer service. If GFCI trips while in use, reset and test the
outlet. Electric cords laying on the ground with worn insulation may trip the
GFCI, only use cords in good condition.

Surge Protection There is a remote chance that voltage fluctuations may impair
the proper functioning of some sensitive electronic equipment. Electronic
devices, including computers and many programmable appliances may use
components that are designed to operate within a narrow voltage range and may
be affected by the portable generator’s momentary voltage fluctuations. While
there is no way to prevent all voltage fluctuations, you can take steps to
protect your sensitive electronic equipment. Install a plug-in surge
suppressor on the receptacles feeding your sensitive equipment. Surge
suppressors come in single or multi-outlet styles. They are designed to
protect against short duration voltage fluctuations.

Run the generator at least 30 minutes every month. Make certain that the
portable generator is kept clean and dry. Do not expose the unit to excessive
dust, dirt, moisture or corrosive vapors. Do not insert any objects through
cooling slots. Before each use inspect underneath the generator for signs of
oil or fuel. Clean any accumulated debris. Keep area around muffler free from
any debris. Use a soft bristle brush to remove dirt or caked on oil. Use a
damp cloth to clean all exterior surfaces.

Maintenance – Storage
Long Term Storage
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system
components such as the carburetor, fuel hoses or tank during storage. Ethanol-
blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) attract moisture, which
leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can
damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. When the generator set
is being stored for more than one month, follow these instructions to avoid
engine problems:
WARNING! Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable which could cause burns
or fire resulting in death or serious injury.
Do not store fuel near any ignition sources. When draining fuel move generator
outdoors and use a commercially available non-conductive vacuum siphon. Fuel
must be drained into an approved container.
1-Treat any stored fuel with fuel stabilizer. 2-When storing generator with
gasoline in fuel tank, operate the engine for 5-10 minutes to circulate
treated fuel into fuel lines and carburetor before shutdown. 3- There is no
need to drain gasoline from the generator fuel tank if fuel stabilizer is
added. 4-FUEL STARVATION: If you elect to drain fuel tank move generator
outdoors. Once fuel tank is drained turn fuel valve to on position. Start and
run the portable generator outdoors until engine stops from lack of gasoline.
This will drain remaining gasoline from tank, fuel lines, and carburetor.
5-Always turn fuel valve to OFF position prior to storage. 6-Allow the
portable generator to cool before cleaning and storage. 7-Change oil .
8-Remove spark plug boot and spark plug. Pour about one teaspoon of engine oil
through the spark plug hole, then slowly pull the recoil starter several times
to distribute the oil in the cylinder Pull recoil slowly until resistance is
felt. This will close the valves so no moisture enters the engine cylinder.
Reinstall the spark plug and attach the spark plug boot. 9-Cover the portable
generator and store in a clean, dry place out of direct sunlight and away from
any ignition sources. Any damage or hazards caused by using improper fuel,
improperly stored fuel, and/or improperly formulated stabilizers, are not
covered by manufacturer’s warranty. Do not store gasoline from one season to
another season.

FIRMAN POWER EQUIPMENT INC. Emission Control System Warranty
CALIFORNIA AND FEDERAL EXHAUST AND EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS CONTROL WARRANTY
STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
The California Air Resources Board, US Environmental Protection Agency (“US
EPA”) and FIRMAN POWER EQUIPMENT INC.(FIRMAN) are pleased to explain the
emissions control systems warranty on your 2022-2023 or later Small Off-Road
Engine (“SORE”) and engine powered equipment. In California, new equipment
that use small off-road engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet
the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. FIRMAN must warrant the emissions
control systems on your SORE and engine powered equipment for the periods of
time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper
maintenance of your small off-road engine or equipment leading to the failure
of the emissions control system. Your emissions control system may include
parts such as the carburetor or fuel-injection system, the ignition system,
catalytic converter, fuel tanks, fuel lines (for liquid fuel and fuel vapors),
fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, clamps and other associated components.
Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors, and other emission-related
assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exists, FIRMAN will repair your SORE
and engine powered equipment at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and
labor.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE: The exhaust and evaporative emissions
control system on your small off-road engine and engine powered equipment is
warranted for two years. If any emissions-related part on your small off-road
engine and engine powered equipment is defective, the part will be repaired or
replaced by FIRMAN.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the SORE and engine powered equipment owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your operator’s manual.
FIRMAN recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your
SORE and engine powered equipment, but FIRMAN cannot deny warranty coverage
solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance
of all scheduled maintenance. As the SORE and engine powered equipment owner,
you should however be aware that FIRMAN may deny you warranty coverage if your
small off-road engine or engine powered equipment or a part has failed due to
abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance or unapproved modifications. You are
responsible for presenting your small off-road engine and engine powered
equipment to a FIRMAN distribution center or service center as soon as the
problem exists. The warranty repairs shall be completed in a reasonable amount
of time, not to exceed 30 days. If you have any questions regarding your
warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact FIRMAN at
1-844-347-6261.
FIRMAN Emission Control Defects Warranty Provisions The warranty period begins
on the date the engine/equipment is delivered to an ultimate purchaser. FIRMAN
warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the
engine is: Designed, built, and equipped so as to conform with all applicable
regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board and US EPA; and Free from
defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted
part to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in the
engine manufacturers application for certification. The warranty on emissions-
related parts is as follows: (1) Any warranted part that is not scheduled for
replacement as required maintenance in the owner’s manual supplied, is
warranted for the warranty period stated above. If any such part fails during
the period of warranty coverage, the part will be repaired or replaced by
FIRMAN at no charge to the owner. Any such part repaired or replaced under the
warranty will be warranted for the remaining warranty period. (2) Any
warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in the owner’s
manual supplied, is warranted for the warranty period stated above. Any such
part repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remaining
warranty period. (3) Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as
required maintenance in the owner’s manual supplied, is warranted for the
period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part.
If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part will be
repaired or replaced by FIRMAN at no charge to the owner. Any such part
repaired or replaced under warranty will be warranted for the remainder of the
period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for the part. (4) Repair
or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty must be performed at
no charge to the owner at a warranty station. (5) Notwithstanding the
provisions of Subsection (4) above, warranty services or repairs must be
provided by FIRMAN that are franchised to service the subject engines. (6) The
owner must not be charged for diagnostic labor that leads to the determination
that a warranted part is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work
is performed at a warranty station. (7) FIRMAN is liable for damages to other
engine components proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any
warranted part.

Service Warranty
(8) Throughout the emissions warranty period defined in Subsection (b)(2),
FIRMAN will maintain a supply of warranted parts sufficient to meet the
expected demand for such parts. (9) Any replacement part may be used in the
performance of any warranty maintenance or repairs and must be provided
without charge to the owner. Such use will not reduce the warranty obligations
of the manufacturer. (10) Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted by
the Air Resources Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on or
modified parts by the ultimate purchaser will be grounds for disallowing a
warranty claim.
The manufacturer will not be liable to warrant failures of warranted parts
caused by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modified part.
