2. Attach black cleaning detergent nozzle.

3. Flush for 1-2 minutes.

4. Shut off engine.
IMPORTANT: Simply shutting OFF engine will not

release pressure in the system. When the engBne has

shut down, squeeze the trigger on the spray gun
to relieve the pressure in the hose.

Automatic Door Down System

(Therma_ Relief)

If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray

gun, circulating water in the pump can reach
temperatures above 125°F. The system engages to

cool the pump by discharging the warm water onto

the ground.

ENGmNE TECHNICAL INFORMATION

This is a single cylinder, Uhead, air cooled engine, it
is a low emissions engine.

in the State of California, Model Series 120000

engines are certified by the California Air Resources

Board to meet emissions standards for 125 hours.

Such certification does not grant the purchaser, owner
or operator of this engine any additional warranties
with respect to the performance or operational life of
this engine. The engine is warranted solely according
to the product and emmisions warranties stated

elsewhere in this manual.

Power Ratings

The power ratings for an individual engine model are
initially developed by starting with SAE (Society of

Automotive Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine

Power & Torque Rating Procedure) (Revision 2002-

05). Given both the wide array of products on which
our engines are placed, and the variety of

environmental issues applicable to operating the
equipement, it may be that the engine you have

purchased will not develop the rated horsepower when
used in a peice of power equipment (actual "on-site"

power). This difference is due to a variety of factors
including, but not limited to, the following: differences

in altitude, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity,
fuel, engine lubrication, maximum governed engine
speed, individual engine to engine variability, design of

the particular peice of power equipment, the manner in
which the engine is operated, engine run-in to reduce

friction and clean out of combustion chambers,
adjustments to the valves and carburetor, and other
factors. The power ratings may also be adjusted

based on comparisons to other similar engines
utilizedin similar applications, and will thereforenot
necessarily match the values derived using the

foregoing codes.

ENGINE MAINTENANCE

Oil Recommendations
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use

only high quality detergent oil rated with API service
classification SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher. DO NOT use
special additives.

1. Choose a viscosity according to the following table:

STARTING TEMPERATURE RANGE ANTICIPATED BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE

NOTE: Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC GF-2, API
certification mark and API service symbol with "SJ/CF
ENERGY CONSERVING" or higher, is an acceptable

oil at all temperatures. Use of synthetic oil does not
alter required oil change intervals.

* The use of multi-viscosity oils (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.)
in temperatures above 40°F (4°C) will result in higher
than normal oil consumption. When using a multi-
viscosity oil, check oil more frequently.

** If using SAE 30 oil in temperatures below 40°F
(4°C), it will result in hard starting and possible engine
bore damage due to inadequate lubrication.

Checking Oil Level
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at least

every 5 hours of operation. Keep oil level maintained.

1. Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.

2. Remove oil dipstick and wipe dipstick with clean
cloth. Replace and tighten dipstick. Remove and

and check oil level.

3. Verify oil is at "Fulr' mark on dipstick. Replace and
tighten dipstick.

WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS 3"O YOUR
PRESSURE WASHER

Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and
place the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.

WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK

Use approved spark plug tester.
DO NOT check for spark with spark plug removed,

Adding Engine Oil

1. Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.

2. Check oil level as described in "Checking Oil Level".

3. If needed, slowly pour oil into oil fill opening to the
"Full" mark on dipstick. DO NOT overfill.

4. Replace and tighten dipstick.
