2. PERFORMANCE
2-1 MAXIMUM OUTPUT
The maximum output is the output of an engine with its throttle valve fully opened under the condition that
all the moving parts are properly broken in after the initial break-in period. A new engine may not produce
full maximum output while its moving parts are still not broken-in.
2-2 CONTINUOUS RATED OUTPUT
The continuous rated output is the output of an engine at optimum governed speed which is most favorable from the view point of engine's life and fuel consumption. When the engine is installed on a certain
equipment, it is recommended that the continuous output required from the equipment should be kept
below this continuous rated output.
2-3 MAXIMUM TORQUE AND FUEL CONSUMPTION WITH MAXIMUM OUTPUT
The maximum torque is the torque at the output shaft when the engine is producing maximum output at
certain revolution. The fuel consumption rate is the amount of fuel in grams consumed per horsepowerhour when the engine is working at continuous rated output.

3. FEATURES
3-1 THE SMALLEST AND LIGHTEST 4-STROKE ENGINE IN THE MARKET
1) Small-sized lubricant oil tank, thanks to the Robin original lubrication system.
2) Compact construction because of the optimum design, not taking any bore-up into consideration.
3) Shorter shaft length at the output side (magneto side), by arranging the cam gear unit at the opposite
side of the magneto.
4) Light weight construction, because of the resin made came gear, rocker cover and other parts.(EH025)
And because of the resin made came gear, other parts.(EH035)
5) Parts of the valve driving system with thoroughgoing light weight construction
3-2 4-STROKE ENGINE ALLOWING OPERATION IN THE TILTED POSITION, REQUIRED IN
BRUSH CUTTING WORK AND OTHER SIMILAR APPLICATIONS
1) Robin's original lubricating system
Small-sized lubrication system with high reliability , that makes it possible to operate the engine in tilted
position.
Basic system
Oil flow
Blow-by air (including fresh air) and oil mist
Fig. 3-1
- 5 -
(a) Since Robin lubricating system makes use of the pressure fluctuations in the crankcase, a lead valve
is arranged at the lower part of the crankcase. By utilizing the negative pressure that occurs during
the piston rising stroke, lubricant oil is supplied from the oil tube (located inside the oil tank, that is
separated from the crankcase) to the crankcase, through the oil passage of the crankshaft which has
rotary valve that opens and shuts with an appropriate timing.
(b) At the same time, fresh air and blow-by air containing oil mist coming from the rocker arm compart-
ment are sucked through the two assist holes that open at the piston top dead center.
(c) The supplied oil is diffused by the crank arm and other parts, thereby transforming in mist.
That diffused oil mist is compressed during the piston lowering stroke, and an appropriate quantity of
the compressed oil mist is pumped to the cam gear compartment and to the rocker arm compartment
through the lead valve, and oil pasage. Thus, it lubricates the various parts of the engine. The remaining oil mist returns to the oil tank via bypass hole.
(d) The oil tank has two pressure relief holes located at its left and right sides which are connected to the
assist hole of the cylinder unit. These pressure relief holes have the function to keep the pressure of
the oil tank constant.
(e) Oil inside the rocker arm compartment is sucked back to the crankcase by the strong negative pres-
sure inside the crankcase, through the two return paths located at the left and right sides.
(f) The blow-by gas and a small amount of oil mist flow from the rocker arm compartment to the oil
separator inside the air cleaner, through the breather pipe. Then separated into blow-by gas and oil
mist.
(g) The separated oil mist returns into the crankcase, passing through the assist hole of the cylinder.
Engine operation in tilted positions
(a) When the engine is tilted carburetor side down.
The return path at the carburetor side inside
the rocker arm compartment comes to the
lower position. Then, the stagnant oil is sucked
back to the crankcase. At that time, the check
valve of the pressure relief hole prevents oil
from flowing back, because the carburetor side
pressure relief hole, located inside the oil tank,
is in the oil.
- 6 -
Fig. 3-2
(b) When the engine is tilted muffler side down.
In the same way as that of the carburetor side
down, the return path in the rocker arm compartment and the pressure relief hole operate
and return the stagnant oil into the crankcase.
(c) Engine tilted back and forth
The breather hole located inside the rocker arm
compartment is arranged approximately at the
center of the rocker arm compartment, so as
to prevent stagnant lubricant oil from being
gushed out at either back or forth inclined position. The stagnant oil is sucked back into the
crankcase through the return path.
(d) Upside down position
Fig. 3-3
Basically, it is presumed that the engine is not
used (is not required to operate) continuously
in the upside down position, and only the practical tilted positions are taken into consideration
as priorities. Measures are adopted, however,
so that the engine can be run for a short time
in upside down positions during the work and/
or during idling.
The oil return passage tube at the muffler side
is extended up to the rocker arm cover in order to suck the oil that stagnates in the rocker
arm compartment while the engine is in the
upside down position. At that time, the pressure relief hole located inside the oil tank is
closed by the check ball, so as to prevent oil
from back flowing from the oil tank.
Fig. 3-4
Lubrication inside the cylinder is carried out with a sufficient volume of oil, irrespective of the position of
the engine, and there is no risk of engine seizure, wear and other similar problems caused by improper
lubrication. The oil volume supplied into the cam gear compartment and into the rocker arm compartment is limited to an appropriate amount, to minimize the oil consumption.

4-6 COOLING SYSTEM
Fig. 4-5
This engine adopts the forced air-cooled system, where cooling air is sent to the cylinder block by an
even-pitched cooling fan that works as a flywheel as well. This cooling air is guided properly to the
cylinder block by the baffle plate.
4-7 LUBRICATION SYSTEM
The rotary parts and the sliding parts of the engine are lubricated by lubricant oil, which is forcibly supplied by utilizing the pressure generated by the up-down movement of the piston. Moreover, the oil
compartment is provided separately in order to prevent lubricant oil from flowing directly into the cylinder.
