4. Replaceoil fill cap/dipstick and fully tighten.

Add Fuel

Fuel mustmeet these requirements: * Clean,fresh, unleadedgasoline. * A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON).High altitude

use, see HighAltitude.

* Gasolinewith up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) or up to 15%

MTBE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.

NOTICE'.Avoid pressurewasher damage. Failureto follow Operator's Manual for fuel recommendations voids warranty.

* DONOTuseunapprovedgasolinesuchasE85. * DONOTmixoil in gasoline. * DONOTmodifyengineto runonalternatefuels.

To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix in a fuel stabilizerwhen adding fuel. SeeStorage.Aii fuel is not the same. If you experiencestarting or performance problems after using fuel, switch to a different fuel provider or change brands. This engine is certified to operate on gasoline. The emission control system for this engine is EM (Engine Modifications).

_. WARNING:Fueland its vapors are extremely

flammable and explosive.

Fireor explosion can causesevere burns

or death.

WHENADDINGFUEL

* Turn pressure washer OFFand let it cool at least2 minutes

before removing fuel cap. Loosencapslowly to relieve pressure in tank.

* Fillfuel tank outdoors. * DONOToverfill tank. Allow spacefor fuel expansion.

. If fuel spills, wait until it evaporatesbefore starting engine. . Keepfuel awayfrom sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and

other ignition sources.

. DONOTlight a cigarette or smoke.

3. install fuel cap and wait for anyspilled fuel to evaporate. CAUTION! Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or

methanol) can attract moisture, which leadsto separation and formation of acids during storage.Acidic gascandamagethe fuel system of an enginewhile in storage.

To avoid engineproblems, the fuel system should be treated with a fuel preserveror emptied beforestorage of 30 days or

longer. If adding a fuel preserver,fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel. if only partially tiffed, air in the tank will promote fuel deterioration during storage. If fuel preserver is not used, drain the fuel tank, start the engineand let it run until the fuel

lines and carburetor are empty. Usefresh fuel next season. See Storage for additional information.

NEVERuse engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank as permanent damagemay occur.

HighAltitude

At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum 85 octane / 85 AKi (89 RON)gasoline is acceptable.To remain

emissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is required.

Operationwithout this adjustment will causedecreased

performance, increasedfuel consumption, and increased emissions. Seea qualified Searsdealer for high altitude

adjustment information. Operationof the engineat altitudes

below 2,500 feet(762 meters) with the high altitude kit is not

recommended.

ENGINETECHNICALINFORMATION

This is a single cylinder, L-head,air cooledengine. It is a low emissions engine.

Jnthe State of CaJJfornia,ModeJ90000 enginesare certified by the CaliforniaAir Resources Boardto meet emissions standardsfor 125hours. Such certification does not grant

the purchaser, owner or operator of this engine any additional warranties with respect to the performanceor operational life of this engine.Theengine is warranted solely

according to the product and emissions warranties stated elsewherein this manual.

Power RaUn[Is

Thegross power rating for individual gas engine models is labeled in accordancewith SAE(Society of Automotive Engineers)codeJ1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure),and rating performance has been

obtained and corrected in accordancewith SAEJ1995 (Revision 2002-05). Torquevalues are derived at 3060 RPM;

horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM.Actual gross engine power will be lower and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine variability. Givenboth the wide arrayof products on which enginesare placed andthe variety of environmental issues applicableto operating the equipment,the gas engine will not developthe rated gross power when used in a given pieceof power equipment (actual "on-site"or net power). This difference is dueto a variety of factors including, but not limited to, accessories(air cleaner, exhaust, charging, cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-enginevariability. Dueto manufacturing andcapacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher ratedpower for this Seriesengine.

This pressurewasher is rated in accordanceto the Pressure Washer Manufacture Association (PWMA) standard PW101 (Testing and Rating Performanceof PressureWashers).

GeneralBecommendaUons

Regular maintenancewill improve the performance and extend the life of the pressure washer.See any Searsor other qualifiedservice dealerfor service.

The pressurewasher warranty doesnot cover items that havebeen subjected to operator abuseor negligence.To receivefull valuefrom the warranty, the operator must maintain pressurewasher as instructed in this manual including proper storage as detailed in Storage.

Someadjustments will needto be made periodically to properly maintain your pressure washer.

All serviceand adjustments should be made at least once eachseason.Follow the requirementsin the Maintenance

Schedulechart above. NOTE:Oncea year you should cleanor replacethe spark

plug and replacethe air filter. A new spark plug and cleanair filter assure properfuel-air mixture and help your engine run better and last longer.

CleanDebris

Daily or before use,clean accumulated debris from pressure

washer. Keeplinkage,spring and controls clean. Keeparea

around and behind muffler free from any combustible debris. inspect cooling air slots and openings on the pressure

washer. Theseopenings must be kept clean and

unobstructed. Pressurewasher parts should be kept cleanto reducethe

risk of overheating and ignition of accumulated debris.

* Usea damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.

NOTICE:improper treatment of pressure washer can damageit and shorten its life.

• DONOTinsertanyobjectsthroughcoolingslots.

* Usea soft bristle brush to loosencaked on dirt, oil, etc. * Usea vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and debris.
