To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix in a fuel
stabilizer when adding fuel. See Storage.All fuel is notthe
same. if you experiencestarting or performance problems
after using fuel, switch to a different fuel provider or change
brands. This engine is certified to operateon gasoline. The

2. Slowly add regular unleadedfuel (A) to fuel tank (B). Be
careful not to overfill. Allow about 1.5" (4cm) (C) oftank
space for fuel expansion.
3. Install fuel cap and wait for anyspilled fuelto evaporate.
CAUTION!Alcohol-blended fuels (calledgasohoI,ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture, which leadsto separation and
formation of acids during storage.Acidic gascan damagethe
fuel system of an enginewhile in storage.
Toavoid engine problems, the fuel system should betreated
with a fuel preserver or 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 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
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.

UsageTips
Formost effective cleaning, keepspray tip from 8 to
24 inches (20 to 61 cm) awayfrom cleaning surface.
If you get spray tip too close, especiallyusing a high
pressure spray tip, you may damagesurface being
cleaned.
DONOTget closer than 6 inches (15 cm) when cleaning
tires.
Cleaning and Applying Detergent
CAUTION
Chemicalscan causebodily injury, and/or property
damage.
NEVERusecausticliquidwithpressurewasher.
UseONLYpressurewashersafedetergents/soaps.Followall
manufacturersinstructions.
To apply detergent,fellowthesesteps:
1. Reviewuse of spray tips.
2. Preparedetergent solution as required by job.
3. Placesmall filter end of detergent siphoning tube into
detergent container.
NOTICE
Contact with the hot muffler can damagedetergent
siphoning tube.
Wheninsertingthesiphonintoa detergentsolutionbottle,
routethetubesoasto keepitfrom inadvertentlycontactingthe
hotmuffler.
NOTE:Makesure the filter is fully submerged in detergent
while applying detergent.
4. Make sure black spray tip is installed.
NOTE:Detergentcannot be applied with the high pressure
spray tips (Greenor Red).
5. Make sure garden hoseis connectedto water inlet.
Checkthat high pressure hose is connectedto spray gun
and pump. Turn on water.
NOTICE
You must attachall hoses beforeyou start the engine.

6. Start engine following instructions How to Start Your
Pressure Washer.
7. Apply detergentto a dry surface, starting at lower
portion of area to be washedand work upward, using
long, even, overlapping strokes.
8. Allow detergentto "soakin"for 3-5 minutes before
washing and rinsing. Reapplyas neededto prevent
surfacefrom drying. DONOTallow detergentto dry on
(prevents streaking).
IMPORTANT:You must flush the detergent siphoning system
after eachuse by placing the filter into a bucketof clean
water, then run the pressure washer in low pressurefor 1-2
minutes.
PressureWasher Rinsing
ForRinsing:
1. Removeblackspray tip from nozzleextension.
2. Selectand install desiredhigh pressure spray tip

Cleaning DetergentSiphoning Tube
If you usedthe detergentsiphoning tube, you must flush it
with cleanwater beforestopping the engine.
1. Placedetergent siphoning tube/filter in a bucketfull of
clean water.
2. Removehigh pressurespray tip from nozzleextension.
3. Selectand install black detergentspray tip following

4. Flushfor 1-2 minutes.
5. Shut off engine following instructions How to Stop

6. ALWAYSpoint spray gun in a safe direction push red
button and squeezespray gun trigger to releaseretained
high water pressure.
IMPORTANT:Spraygun traps high water pressure,even
when engine is stopped and water is disconnected.
Automatic Cool DownSystem (Thermal 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 reachtemperatures above
125°F.Thesystem engagesto cool the pump by discharging
the warm water ontothe ground.

EHGINETECHNICALINFORMATIOH PRODUCTSPECIFICATIOHS
This is a single cylinder, L-head,air cooled engine. It is a low
emissions engine.
Inthe Stateof California, Model 100000 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 life of this engine.Theengine 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 accordancewith SAE(Societyof Automotive
Engineers)codeJ1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque
Rating Procedure),and rating performance hasbeen
obtained andcorrected in accordancewith SAEJ1995
(Revision2002-05). Torquevalues are derived at3060 RPM;
horsepower values are derivedat 3600 RPM.Actual gross
engine power will be lower and is affected by, among other
things, ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine
variability. Givenboth 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 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
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).

GENERALRECOMMENDATIONS
Regularmaintenancewill improve the performanceand
extendthe life of the pressure washer. Seeany Searsor
other qualified service dealerfor service.
Thepressure washer warranty doesnot cover items that
havebeen subjectedto operator abuseor 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 madeperiodically to
properly maintain your pressure washer.
All serviceand adjustments should be madeat 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.
EMISSIONCOHTROL
Maintenance, replacement, or repair ofthe emissions

CJeanDebris
Daily or before use,clean accumulated debris from pressure
washer. Keeplinkage, spring and controls clean. Keeparea
around and behind muffler free from any combustible debris.
Inspect cooling air slots and openings on the pressure
washer. Theseopenings must be kept cleanand
unobstructed.
Pressurewasher parts should be kept cleanto reducethe
risk of overheating and ignition of accumulated debris.

3. Empty pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil
handle about6 times. This should remove most liquid in
