lines and carburetor are empty. Usefresh fueI next season. See Storagefor additionai information.

NEVERuseengine or carburetor cleanerproducts in the fuel tank as permanent damage may occur.

NighAltitude At altitudes over 5,000 feet (1524 meters), a minimum

85 octane/ 85 AKI (89 RON)gasoline is acceptable.To remain emissions compliant, high aititude adjustment is required. Operationwithout this adjustment wiii cause decreasedperformance, increasedfuet consumption, and increasedemissions. Seea qualified Sears dealer for high altitude adjustment information.

ENGINETECHNICALiNFORMATiON

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

Intile Stateof California, Modei I00000 enginesare certified by the California Air Resources Boardto meet emissions standardsfor 125 hours. Such certification does not grant the purchaser, owner or operator of this engine any additional warranties with respectto the performance or operational Iife of this engine.Theengine is warranted soiely according to tile product and emissions warranties stated

elsewherein this manual.

Pewer Ratings

Thegross power rating for individual gas engine models is labeledin accordancewith SAE(Societyof Automotive

Engineers)code J1940 (SmalI Engine Power & Torque

Rating Procedure),and rating performance hasbeen obtained andcorrected in accordancewith SAEJ1995

(Revision2002-05). Torque values are derived at 3060 RPM; horsepower vaiues are derivedat 3600 RPiVI.Actuai gross engine power wiii be iower and is affected by, among other things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine variabiiity. Givenboth the wide array of products on which enginesare piacedand the variety of environmentai issues appiicabteto operatingthe equipment, the gas engine wiii not developthe rated gross power when used in a given pieceof power equipment (actual "on-site"or net power). This difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, accessories (air cteaner,exhaust,charging, cooiing, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), appiication iimitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature,humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine variabiiity. Due to

manufacturing and capacity iimitations, Briggs & Stratton

maysubstitute an engine of higher ratedpower for this Seriesengine.
