GROUNDING THE GENERATOR
A grounding lug is supplied with the generator for use
when required by local electrical ordinances. Refer to
article 250 of the National Electrical Code to clarity
any needed grounding information. Your local electric
company or a certified electrician should be able to
help you with this information.
Grounding Lug
NOTE: Your engine is already grounded to the frame
by a grounding strap.
INSTALLING WHEEL KIT
The Craftsman Wheel Kit was designed to greatly
improve the portability of your generator.
ACAUTION
Drain gas and oil before
i assembling the portability
kit. Failure to do so will cause damage to the
engine.
NOTE: Always follow state regulations for proper oil
disposal.
• Place generator on level ground; drain all gas and
oil from the engine (see engine manual for correct
procedure).
• Place a 1" thick x 1' square piece of wood on the
ground in front of the engine. With the help of
another person, tilt the generator and rest the
recoil starter on the wood. NOTE: This will
support the gasoline engine during assembly and
make assembly easier.
• Place a handle cap (7) onto each end of handle
prior to installation.
• The handle should be installed on the electrical
outlet end of the generator. Place one washer
(12) on long cap screws (11). Align the handle
brackets with the upper holes pre-drilled in the
generator frame. Place mentioned screws through
frame and handle brackets. Secure with lock nuts
(8) and tighten.
• Locate the engine support. Place one wheel
bracket (4) on top of support as shown in illustra­
tion. Align with the pre-drilled holes in support.
Place 2 cap screws (9) through holes in bracket
and support. Secure with 2 lock nuts (8) and
tighten.
• Insert one shoulder bolt (2) into wheel (1). Insert
threaded end of bolt through wheel bracket,
secure with lock nut (3) and tighten. NOTE: The
wheel will not rub frame if installed properly.
