fuel system of an enginewhile in storage.

To avoid engine problems, 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 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.

SeeStoragefor 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

remainemissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is

required. Operationwithout this adjustment win cause

decreasedperformance, increasedfuel consumption, and

increasedemissions. Seea qualified Searsdealerfor high

altitude adjustment information. Operationof the engine at

altitudes below 2,500 feet (762 meters) with the high altitude

kit is not recommended.

FreshStart@ Fuel Cap

The FreshStart® fuel cap (D) is designedto hold a

cartridge (E) which contains fuel preserver.Adding fuel

preserver helps keepfuel fresh and carburetors clean for

easierstarting all season long. TheFresh Start® fuel cap, if

equippedwith a cartridge, automatically drips concentrated
fuel preserver into your fuel tank so you don't haveto add it
yourself.

Toapply detergent, follow thesesteps:

1. Reviewuse of spray tips.

2. Preparedetergent solution as required by job.

3. Placesmall filter end of detergent siphoning tube into

ENGINETECHNICALiNFORMATiON

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

In the State of California, Model 120000 engines are 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 life of this engine. Theengine is warranted solely

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

PowerRatings

Thegross power rating for individual gas engine models is
labeled in accordancewith SAE(Society of Automotive
Engineers)code J1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque
Rating Procedure), and rating performance has been

obtained and corrected in accordancewith SAEJ1995
(Revision 2002-05). Torque values 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. Given both the wide arrayof products on which
enginesare placed andthe variety of environmental issues
applicableto operatingthe equipment,the gas engine wiii not
developthe ratedgross 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 cleaner, exhaust, charging,
cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations,
ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity,
altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Dueto
manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton
may substitute an engine of higher ratedpower for this
Seriesengine.

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

To protectthe unit from freezingtemperatures:

1. Follow steps 1-4 in the previous section AfterEach Use.

2. Use pump saver, availableat Sears retailitem 7174403,
to treat pump. This minimizes freezedamageand
lubricates pistons and seals.

3. If pump saver is not available,connect a 3-foot section
of garden hose to water inlet adapter. Pour

LONGTERIViSTORAGE

If you do not plan to usethe pressure washer for morethan
30 days, you must preparethe engine and pump for long
term storage.

It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essentialfuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter,
fuel hoseor tank during storage. Also, experienceindicates

that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture, which leadsto separation

and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can

Protect Pump

To protect the pump from damagecaused by mineral

Other Storage Tips

1. DONOTstore fuel from oneseasonto another unless it
hasbeen treated asdescribed in Protect FuelSystem.

.

Replacefuel container if it starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt
in fuel cancause problems if it's used with this unit.

3.

Coverunit with a suitable protective cover that does not
retain moisture.

_i, WARNING

Storagecovers can be flammable.

Protect Fuel System

FueJAdditive:

Fuelcan becomestale when stored over 30 days.Stale fuel
causesacid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system or
on essential carburetor parts. To keepfuel fresh, use Briggs

& Stratton FRESHSTART®fuel stabilizer, availableasa
liquid additive or a drip concentrate cartridge.

Thereis no needto drain gasolinefrom the engine if a fuel
stabilizer is added according to instructions. Run the engine
for 2 minutes to circulate the stabilizerthroughout the fuel
system. The engine andfuel canthen be stored up to

24 months.
If gasoline in the engine hasnot beentreated with afuel

stabilizer, it must be drained into an approvedcontainer. Run
the engine until it stops from lackof fuel. The useof a fuel
stabilizer in the storage container is recommendedto

maintain freshness.

• DO NOT placea storage cover over ahot pressure washer.

• Let equipment cool for a sufficient time before placing the

LookFor ReJevantEmissionsDurability Periodand Air
Index Information OnYour EngineEmissionsLabeJ

Enginesthat are certified to meet the California Air Resources
Board (CARB)Emissions Standard must display information

regarding the Emissions Durability Period and the Air Index.
The engine manufacturer makes this information availableto
the consumer on emissions labels. Theengine emissions

labelwill indicatecertification information.
The Emissions DurabilityPerioddescribes the number of

hours of actual running time for which the engine is certified
to be emissions compliant, assuming proper maintenance in

accordancewith the Operating& Maintenance Instructions.
Thefollowing categories are used:

Moderate: Engine is certified to be emissions compliant for

125 hours of actual engine running time.

Intermediate: Engineis certified to be emissions compliant
for 250 hours of actual engine running time.

Extended: Engineis certified to be emissions compliant for
500 hours of actual engine running time.

Forexample, a typical walk-behind lawn mower is used20 to
25 hours per year. Therefore,the Emissions Durability

Period of an enginewith anintermediate ratingwould
equateto 10 to 12 years.

Small off-road enginesare certified to meet the United States

EnvironmentalProtection Agency (USEPA)Phase2
emissions standards. For Phase2 certified engines,the

Emissions CompliancePeriod referred to on the Emissions

Compliancelabel indicatesthe number of operating hours for
which the engine has been shown to meet Federalemissions

requirements.

Forengines lessthan 225 cc displacement.

CategoryC = 125 hours

CategoryB =250 hours

CategoryA = 500 hours

Forengines of 225 cc or more displacement.

CategoryC = 250 hours

CategoryB =500 hours

CategoryA = 1000 hours
