is a low emissions engine.
in the State of California, Model Series 120000
engines are certified by the California Air Resources
Board to meet emissions standards for 125 hours.
Such certification does not grant the purchaser, owner
or operator of this engine any additional warranties
with respect to the performance or operational life of
this engine. The engine is warranted solely according
to the product and emmisions warranties stated
elsewhere in this manual.
Power Ratings
The power ratings for an individual engine model are
initially developed by starting with SAE (Society of
Automotive Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine
Power & Torque Rating Procedure) (Revision 2002-
05). Given both the wide array of products on which
our engines are placed, and the variety of
environmental issues applicable to operating the
equipement, it may be that the engine you have
purchased will not develop the rated horsepower when
used in a peice of power equipment (actual "on-site"
power). This difference is due to a variety of factors
including, but not limited to, the following: differences
in altitude, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity,
fuel, engine lubrication, maximum governed engine
speed, individual engine to engine variability, design of
the particular peice of power equipment, the manner in
which the engine is operated, engine run-in to reduce
friction and clean out of combustion chambers,
adjustments to the valves and carburetor, and other
factors. The power ratings may also be adjusted
based on comparisons to other similar engines
utilizedin similar applications, and will thereforenot
necessarily match the values derived using the
foregoing codes.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Regular maintenance will improve the performance
and extend the life of the pressure washer. See any
authorized Sears dealer for service.
The pressure washer warranty does not cover items
that have been subjected to operator abuse or
negligence. To receive full value from the warranty,
the operator must maintain pressure washer as
instructed in this manual including proper storage as
detailed in "Storage" on pages 21-22.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to

ENGINE MAINTENANCE
OH
OHRecommendations
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use
only high quality detergent oil rated with API service
classification SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher. DO NOT use
special additives.
1. Choose a viscosity according to the following table:
STARTING TEMPERATURE RANGE ANTICIPATED BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE
NOTE: Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC GFz2, API
certification mark and API service symbol with "SJ/CF
ENERGY CONSERVING" or higher, is an acceptable
oil at all temperatures. Use of synthetic oil does not
alter required oil change intervals.
* The use of multi-viscosity oils (5Wz30, 10W_30, etc.)
in temperatures above 40°F (4°C) will result in higher
than normal oil consumption. When using a multi-
viscosity oil check oil more frequently.
** If using SAE 30 oil in temperatures below 40°F
(4°C), it will result in hard starting and possible engine
bore damage due to inadequate lubrication.
Checking OHLevel
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at least
every 5 hours of operation. Keep oil level maintained.
1. Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.
2. Remove oil dipstick and wipe dipstick with clean
cloth. Replace and tighten dipstick. Remove and
and check oil level.
3. Verify oil is at "Full" mark on dipstick. Replace and
tighten dipstick.
WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR
PRESSURE WASHER
