after using fuel, switch to a different fuel provider or change

brands. This engine is certified to operateon gasoline. The

emission control system for this engine is EM (Engine

Modifications).

WARRIRG

Fueland its vapors are extremely flammable and

explosive.

Fireor explosion can causesevere burns or

death.

WHENADDINGFUEL

• Turn pressure washer OFFand let it cool at least 2 minutes

before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relievepressure

in tank.

• Fill fuel tank outdoors.

, DONOToverfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion.

• If fuel spills, wait until it evaporatesbefore starting engine.

, Keepfuel away from sparks, openflames, pilot lights, heat,and

other ignition sources.

, DONOTlight a cigarette or smoke.

Cleanarea around fuel fill cap, remove cap.

Slowly add regular unleadedfuel (A) to fuel tank (B). Be

careful notto overfill. Allow about 1.5" (4 cm) (C) of tank

spacefor fuel expansion.

3. Installfuel capand wait for any spilled fuel to evaporate.

CAUTION!Alcohol-blended fuels (calledgasohol, 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.

Toavoidengineproblems,the fuel systemshouldbetreated

with afuel preserver or emptied beforestorageof 30 daysor

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,

drainthe fueltank, startthe engineand let it run untilthe fuel

linesand carburetorareempty. Usefresh fuelnext season.See

Storagefor additionalinformation.

NEVERuseengine or carburetor cleanerproducts in the fuel

tank as permanent damagemay occur.

HighARRude

At altitudes over5,000 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 will cause

decreasedperformance, increased fuel 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.

store your QuickConnectspray tips, spray gun and spray tip

extension.Thereis alsoa hook atthe front ofthe accessory

tray to hold your high pressure hose. Identify all accessories

with the illustration on page6.

NOTE:The extra hole in the tray is for storing a utility brush.

Theextra clip in the tray is for storing a turbo spray tip. The

brush and turbo spray tip are NOTincluded with your

pressure washer. You can buythese items as optional

accessories.

1. Placespray tip extensionthrough hole on accessory

tray, as shown.

tray on front of tray as shown.

How to Use Spray Tips

Thequick-connect on the spray tip extensionallows you to

switch between four different quick connect spray tips. Spray

tips can be changedwhile pressure washer is running once

spray gun trigger is locked. Thespray tips vary the spray

pattern as shown below.

EHGINETECHNICALINFORMATIOH

This is a single cylinder, overheadvalve (OHV),air cooled

engine. It is a low emissions engine.

Inthe Stateof California, ModelSeries 120000 enginesare

certified by the CaliforniaAir ResourcesBoardto meet

emissions standardsfor 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.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 ina 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).

General Recommendations

Regularmaintenancewill improve the performanceand

extendthe life of the pressure washer.Seeany Searsor

other qualified service dealerfor service.

Thepressure washer warranty doesnot cover items that

havebeensubjected to operator abuseor negligence.To

receivefull valuefrom the warranty, the operator must

maintain pressurewasher as instructed in this manual

including proper storage asdetailed in Storage.

Someadjustments will needto be madeperiodically to

properly maintainyour pressure washer.

All service and adjustments should be madeat least once

eachseason.Follow the requirementsin the Maintenance

Schedulechart above.

NOTE:Oncea yearyou should clean or replacethe spark

plug and replacethe air filter. A new spark plug and clean air

filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and helpyour engine run

better and last longer.

Emissions Control

Maintenance, replacement,or repair ofthe emissions

control devicesand systemsmay be performedby any non-

road engine repair establishmentor individual. However,

to obtain "no charge" emissions control service, the work

must be performed by a factory authorized dealer.Seethe

Emissions Warranty.

Before Each Use

1. Checkengine oil level.

2. Cleandebris.

3. Checkwater inlet screenfor damage.

4. Checkhigh pressure hose for leaks.

5. Checkgun and spray tip extensionassembly for leaks.

6. Purgepump of air and contaminants.

PRESSUREWASHERMAINTENANCE

Clean Debris

Daily or before use,clean accumulated debris from pressure

washer. Keeplinkage, spring and controls clean. Keeparea

around and behind muffler free from anycombustible 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.

• Usea dampcloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.

• Usea soft bristle brushto loosencaked on dirt, oil, etc.

Spray Tip Maintenance

A pulsing sensationfelt while squeezingthe spray gun trigger

may becaused by excessivepump pressure. Theprincipal

cause of excessivepump pressure is a spray tip clogged or
