Engine Power Rating Information
The gross power rating for individual gas
engine models is labeled in accordance with
SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code
J19400 (Small Engine Power and Torque
Rating Procedure), and rating performance has
been obtained and corrected in accordance with
SAE J1995 (Revision 2002-05). Torque values
are derived at 3060 RPM; horsepower values
are derived at 3600 RPM. Actual gross engine
power will be lower and is affected by, among
other things, ambient operating conditions and
engine to engine variability. Given both the
wide array of products on which engines are
placed and the variety of environmental issues
applicable to operating the equipment, the
gas engine will not develop the rated gross
power when used in a given power equipment
(actual “on-site” or 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.
Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations,
Honda or Reliable Equipment & Service may
substitute an engine of higher rated power
for this Series engine.
