* A minimum of 87 octane/87 AKI (91 RON).High altitude
use, seeHigh Altitude.
* Gasolinewith upto 10% ethanol (gasohol) or up to 15%
MTBE(methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.

3. Installfuel cap and wait for any spilled fuelto evaporate.
CAUTION!Alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohoI,ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture, which leadsto separation and
formation of acids during storage.Acidic gas can damagethe
fuel system of an enginewhile in storage.
Toavoid engine problems, the fuel system should betreated
with a fuel preserveror emptied before storage of 30 days or
longer. If adding a fuel preserver,fill the fuel tank with fresh
fuel. if only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel
deterioration during storage, if fuel preserver is not used,
drain the fuel tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel
lines and carburetor are empty. Usefresh fuel next season.
See Storagefor additional information.
NEVERuseengine or carburetor cleanerproducts inthe 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 cause
decreasedperformance, increasedfuel consumption, and
increasedemissions. Seea qualified Searsdealer for high
altitude adjustment information. Operationof the engine at
altitudes below 2,500 feet (762 meters) with the high altitude
kit is not recommended.

EHGINETECHNICALINFORMATIOH PRODUCTSPECIFICATIOHS
This is a single cylinder, L-head,air cooled engine. It is a low
emissions engine.
Inthe Stateof California, ModelSeries 120000 engines are
certified by the CaliforniaAir ResourcesBoardto meet
emissions standards for 125 hours. Suchcertification does
not grant the purchaser,owner or operator of this engine any
additional warranties with respectto the performance or
operational life of this engine.The engine is warranted solely
according to the product and emissions warranties stated
elsewherein this manual.
Power Ratings
Thegross power rating for individual gas engine models is
labeledin accordance with SAE(Societyof Automotive
Engineers)code J1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque
Rating Procedure),and rating performance has been
obtained andcorrected in accordancewith SAEJ1995
(Revision2002-05). Torquevalues are derived at3060 RPM;
horsepower values are derivedat 3600 RPM. Actual gross
engine power will belower and is affected by, among other
things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine
variability. Given both the wide array of products on which
enginesare placedand the variety of environmental issues
applicableto operatingthe equipment, the gas engine will not
developthe ratedgross power when used in a given pieceof
power equipment (actual "on-site" or net power). This
difference is due to avariety 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-engine variability. Due to
manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton
maysubstitute an engine of higher ratedpower for this
Seriesengine.
This pressurewasher is rated in accordanceto the Pressure
Washer Manufacture Association (PWMA) standard PW101
(Testingand Rating Performanceof PressureWashers).

PRESSUREWASHERMAINTENANCE
CJeanDebris
Daily or before use,clean accumulated debris from cleaning
system. Keeplinkage, spring andcontrols clean.Keeparea
around and behind muffler free from any combustible debris.
Inspect cooling air slots andopenings on the pressure
washer. Theseopenings must bekept cleanand
unobstructed.
Cleaningsystem parts should bekept cleanto reduce the risk
of overheating and ignition of accumulateddebris.
* Usea dampcloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
General Recommendations
Regularmaintenancewiil improve the performance and
extendthe life of the pressure washer. Seeany Searsor
other qualified service dealerfor service.
Thepressure washer warranty doesnot cover items that
havebeen subjectedto operator abuse or negligence.To
receivefull valuefrom the warranty, the operator must
maintain pressure washer as instructed in this manual
including proper storage as detailedin Storage.
Someadjustments will needto be made periodically to
properly maintain your pressure washer.
All service and adjustments should bemade at least once
eachseason. Follow the requirementsin the Maintenance
Schedulechart above.
NOTE:Oncea year you should clean or replacethe spark
plug and replacethe air filter. A new spark plug and clean air
filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run
better and last longer.
