siphoning hoses.One is attachedto the cleaningtank and

one is loosefor siphoning pressure washer safe detergents

from a bottle or container.

Attach one of the detergent siphon hoses (A) to the barbed

hose fitting (B) on the pump.

* A minimum of 87 octane/87AKI (91 RON).High altitude

use, seeHigh Altitude.

* Gasolinewith up to 10% ethanol (gasohol) or up to 15%

MTBE(methyl tertiary butyl ether) is acceptable.

NOTICE

Avoid pressure washer damage.

Failureto follow Operator's Manualfor fuel

recommendations voids warranty.

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 engineis certified to operateon gasoline. The

emission control system for this engine is EM (Engine

Modifications).

careful not to overfill. Allow about 1.5" (4 cm) (C) oftank

space for fuel expansion.

3. Installfuelcap and waitfor 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.

EHGINETECHNICALINFORMATIOH PRODUCTSPECIFICATIOHS

This is a single cylinder, L-head,air cooled engine. It is a low

emissions engine.

Inthe Stateof California, Model 120000 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 modelsis

labeledin accordancewith SAE(Societyof Automotive

Engineers)code J1940 (Small EnginePower& Torque Rating

Procedure),and rating performancehasbeen obtainedand

correctedin accordancewith SAEJ1995 (Revision 2002-05).

Torquevaluesare derivedat 3060 RPM;horsepower values

are derivedat 3600 RPM.Actualgross engine powerwill be

lower and is affected by, among otherthings, ambient

operatingconditions and engine-to-enginevariability. Given

both the wide arrayof products on which enginesare placed

andthe varietyof environmental issuesapplicableto

operatingthe equipment,the gas enginewill not developthe

ratedgross power when usedin a givenpiece of power

equipment (actual "on-site"or net power). This differenceis

dueto a variety of factors including, but not limited to,

accessories(air cleaner,exhaust,charging, cooling,

carburetor,fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient

operatingconditions (temperature,humidity, altitude), and

engine-to-enginevariability. Dueto manufacturingand

capacitylimitations, Briggs & Stratton maysubstitute an

engineof higher ratedpowerfor this Seriesengine.

Spark Arrester Service

Your engine is not factory-equipped with a spark arrester. In

some areas,it is illegal to operatean engine without a spark

arrester. Checklocal laws and regulations. A spark arrester is

availablefrom your nearest Searsservicecenter. If you need

to order a spark arrester, pleasecall 1-SOO-4-F,,IY-HOF,,IE

(46g-4663).

Thespark arrester must be serviced every 50 hours to keepit

functioning as designed.

If the engine has been running,the muffler will be very hot.

Allow the muffler to cool before servicing the spark arrester.
