formation of acids during storage.Acidic gascandamagethe
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)gasolineis acceptable.To
remainemissions compliant, high altitude adjustment is
required. Operationwithout this adjustment wiii 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 (A) is designed to hold a
cartridge (B) which containsfuel preserver.Adding fuel
preserver helps keepfuel fresh and carburetors cleanfor
easierstarting aii season long. The FreshStart@fuel cap,if
equipped with a cartridge, automatically drips concentrated
fuel preserverinto your fuel tank so you don't haveto add it
yourself.
NOTICE FreshStart@ fuel preserver cartridge is availableas
an optional accessory, retail item 7133386. it is not included
with the pressurewasher. Contact the original equipment
manufacturer, retailer,or dealerto obtain a cartridge
designedfor the FreshStart@fuel cap installed on this
engine.
Readand follow all instructions andwarnings given in the
FreshStart@fuel preservercartridge package.
Lubricate O-Rings
Lubrication of o-rings is extremely important for installation
and operation. The useof a lubricant (petroleum or synthetic
grease)during assembly helpsseat o-rings properly and
provides an improved seal. It also helps protect the o-ring
from damageby abrasion, pinching or cutting and extends
the life of the o-ring.
NOTICE ALWAYSapplya small amount of lubricant on
o-rings prior to assemblingthe garden hoseto the pump (C),
high pressure hose(D), spray gun (E), and nozzle
extension(F).
Lubricateall connectionsshownbelow, following these
instructions:
1. inspect and cleanconnecting surfaces prior to
lubrication and assembly.
2. Use lubricants sparingly during assembly; a light film is
all that is required.
3. Use a small brush or cotton swab to apply grease
directly to o-rings wherethey are not accessible(QC
fitting, M22 fitting).

ENGINETECHNICALiNFORMATiON
This is a single cylinder, overheadvalve (OHV), air cooled
engine, it is a low emissions engine.
In the State of California, Model 110000 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 performanceor
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
labeled in accordancewith SAE(Society of Automotive
Engineers)codeJ1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque
Rating Procedure), and rating performance has been
obtained and corrected in accordancewith SAEJ1995
(Revision 2002-05). Torquevalues are derived at 3060 RPM;
horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM.Net power
values aretaken with exhaustand air cleanerinstalled
whereas gross powervalues are collected without these
attachments.Actual gross engine power will be higher than
net engine power and is affected by, among other things,
ambient operating conditions and engine-to-engine
variability. Giventhe wide array of products on which engines
are placed, the gasengine may not developthe ratedgross
power when used in a given pieceof power equipment.This
difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not
limited to, the variety of engine components (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 rated
power for this Seriesengine.
