Fuel must meet these requirements:
* Clean,fresh, unleadedgasoline.
* A minimum of 87 octane/87AKI (91 RON).For high
altitude use, see HighAltitude.
° Gasolinewith upto 10% ethanol (gas@@ is acceptable.
NOTICE Use of unapproved fuels could damage pressure
washer and voids warranty.

DONOTmixoil ingasolineor modifyengineto run onalternatefuels.
,a, WARNING Fueland its vapors are extremely flammable
and explosive which could cause burns,
fire or explosion resulting in death or
serious injury.
WHENADDING FUEL
Turn pressurewasher engineOFFandlet it cool at least 2
minutes before removingfuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve
pressure in tank.
Fiii fuel tank outdoors.
* DONOToverfill tank. Allow spacefor fuel expansion.
oif fuel spills, wait until it evaporatesbefore starting engine.
Keepfuel awayfrom sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat,and
other ignition sources.
Checkfuel lines,tank, cap andfittings frequently for cracks or
leaks. Replaceif necessary.
DONOTlight a cigaretteor smoke.
To protectthe fuel system from gum formation, mix in a fuel
stabilizerwhen adding fuel. See Storage.All fuel is not the
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
emission control system for this engine is EM(Engine
Modifications).
1. Cleanareaaround fuel fill cap, removecap.
2. Slowly add regular unleadedfuel (H) to fuel tank (S).Be
careful not to overfill. Allow about 1.5" (4 cm) (K) of tank
space for fuel expansion.
3. Installfuelcapandletanyspilledfuelevaporatebefore
startingengine.
CAUTION! Alcohol-blendedfuels (calledgasohol, ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture, which leadsto separationand
formation of acids during storage.Acidic gascan damagethe
fuel system of an enginewhile in storage.
To avoidengine 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.
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
increased emissions. Seea qualified Searsdealer for high
altitude adjustment information. Operationof the engineat
altitudes below 2,500 feet (762 meters) with the high altitude
kit is not recommended.
Lubricate OoRings
Lubrication of o-rings is extremely important for installation
and operation_The useof a lubricant (petroleum or synthetic
grease)during assembly helps seat o-rings properly and
provides an improved seal. it alsohelps protect the o-ring
from damageby abrasion, pinching or cutting and extends
the life of the o-ring_
HOT/CE ALWAYSapply a small amount of lubricant on
o-rings prior to assemblingthe garden hoseto the pump (A),
high pressurehose (B),spray gun (C), and nozzle
extension(t}).
Lubricateaii cenne¢_iensshewn beiew, feiiewing _hese
instruc_iens:
1. inspect and clean connecting surfaces prior to
lubrication and assembly.
2_ Uselubricants sparingly during assembly;a light film is
all that is required.
3. Usea small brush or cotton swab to applygrease
directly to o-rings wherethey are not accessible (QC
fitting, M22 fitting)_

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.Thegross
power curves can beviewed at
www.BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM.Net power values are
taken with exhaust and air cleanerinstalled whereas gross
power values are collectedwithout these attachments.Actual
gross engine power will be higher than net engine power and
is affected by, among other things, ambientoperating
conditions and engine-to-enginevariability. Giventhe wide
array of products on which enginesare placed,the gas
engine 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 imitations, ambient
operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude}, and
engine-to-enginevariability. Dueto manufacturing and

The pressurewasher warranty doesnot cover items that
havebeen subjectedto operator abuseor negligence.To
receivefull valuefrom the warranty, the operator must
maintain pressurewasher as instructed in this manual
including proper storage as detailedin Storage.
Someadjustments will needto be made periodically to
properly maintain your pressure washer.
All serviceand adjustments should be made at bast once
eachseason.Follow the requirementsin the Maintenance
Schedulechart above.
NOtiCE Oncea year you should dean or replacethe spark
plug and replacethe air filter. A new spark plug and dean air
filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run
better and last longer.
