 • Aminimumof87octane/87AKI(91RON).Forhighaltitudeuse,seeHigh

Altitude.

 • Petrolwithupto10%ethanol(gasohol)orupto15%MTBE(methyltertiary

butyl ether) is acceptable.

NOTICE Avoid pressure washer damage.

Failure to follow Operator’s Manual for fuel recommendations voids warranty.

• DONOTuseunapprovedpetrolsuchasE85.

• DONOTmixoilinpetrol.

• DONOTmodifyenginetorunonalternatefuels.

To protect the fuel system from gum formation, mix in a fuel stabilizer when adding fuel.

See Storage. All fuel is not the same. If you experience starting or performance problems

after using fuel, switch to a different fuel provider or change brands. This engine is

certified to operate on petrol. The emission control system for this engine is EM (Engine

Modifications).

1. Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.

2. Slowly add regular unleaded fuel (A) to fuel tank (B). Be careful not to overfill.

Allow about 4 cm (1.5”) (C) of tank space for fuel expansion.

3. Install fuel cap and let any spilled fuel evaporate before starting engine.

High Altitude

Ataltitudesover1500meters(5,000feet),aminimum85octane/85AKI(89

RON) petrol is acceptable. To remain emissions compliant, high altitude adjustment

is required. Operation without this adjustment will cause decreased performance,

increased fuel consumption, and increased emissions. See a Briggs & Stratton

Authorized Dealer for high altitude adjustment information. Operation of the engine at

altitudes below 750 meters (2,500 feet) with the high altitude kit is not recommended.

Lubricate O-Rings Figure

Lubrication of o-rings is extremely important for installation and operation. The use

of a lubricant (petroleum or synthetic grease) during assembly helps seat o-rings

properly and provides an improved seal. It also helps protect the o-ring from damage

by abrasion, pinching or cutting and extends the life of the o-ring.

NOTICE ALWAYS apply a small amount of lubricant on o-rings prior to assembling

the garden hose to the pump (A), high pressure hose threaded end (B), spray gun (C),

andhighpressurehosequickconnectend(D).

Lubricate all connections shown below, following these instructions:

1. Inspect and clean connecting 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 where they

are not accessible (QC fitting, M22 fitting).

WARNING Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and explosive which

could cause burns, fire or explosion resulting in death, serious

injury and/or property damage.

Power Ratings: The gross power rating for individual gas engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine Power &

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. The gross power curves can be viewed at www.BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM. Net power values are taken with exhaust and air cleaner

installed whereas gross power values 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. Given the wide array of products on which engines are placed, the gas engine may not develop the rated gross

power when used in a given piece of 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. Due

to manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher rated power for this Series engine.

* This pressure washer is rated in accordance to the Pressure Washer Manufacturers Association (PWMA) standard PW101-2010 (Testing and Rating Performance of Pressure

Washers).

carburants ne sont pas identiques. En cas de problèmes de démarrage ou de mauvaises

performances après l’utilisation d’un carburant, choisir un autre fournisseur ou changer

demarque.Cemoteurestcertifiépourfonctionneràl’essence.Lesystèmedecontrôle

des émissions dans l’environnement de ce moteur est du type EM (Engine Modifications).

3. Installer le bouchon de carburant et laisser toute trace de carburant s’évaporer

avant de faire démarrer le moteur.

Haute altitude

À une altitude supérieure à 1524 mètres, il est possible d’utiliser de l’essence avec un

indice d’octane de 85 / 85 AKI (NOR de 89). Pour rester conforme aux réglementations

sur les émissions dans l’environnement, un réglage est nécessaire pour la haute altitude.

Tout fonctionnement sans que ce réglage soit effectué provoquera une baisse des

performances, une augmentation de la consommation de carburant et une augmentation

des émissions dans l’environnement. Consulter un concessionnaire Briggs & Stratton

agréée pour toute information sur le réglage pour la haute altitude. Il n’est pas conseillé

d’utiliser l’appareil à une altitude inférieure à 762 mètres avec le kit de haute altitude.

Lubrification des chaînes Figure

La lubrification des joints toriques est extrêmement importante pour l’installation et le

fonctionnement. L’utilisation d’un produit lubrifiant (vaseline ou graisse synthétique)

pendant le montage aide les joints toriques à s’emboîter correctement et fournit une

meilleure étanchéité. Elle permet aussi de protéger les joints toriques contre les dommages

provoqués par l’abrasion, le pincement ou la coupure et prolonge leur durée de vie.

AVIS TOUJOURS appliquer une petite quantité de produit lubrifiant sur les joints

toriques avant de monter le tuyau d’arrosage sur la pompe (A), extrémité filetée du

tuyau haute pression (B), le pistolet de pulvérisation (C) extrémité du tuyau haute

pression à raccord rapide (D).

Lubrifier tous les raccords indiqués ci-dessous en suivants ces instructions :

1. Inspecter et nettoyer les surfaces des raccords avant la lubrification et le montage.

2. Utiliser les produits lubrifiants avec parcimonie pendant le montage ; un film fin

suffit.

3. Utiliser un petit pinceau plat ou un chiffon de coton pour appliquer la

graisse directement sur les joints toriques lorsqu’ils ne sont pas directement

accessibles (raccord QC, raccord M22).

AVERTISSEMENT

Le carburant et ses vapeurs sont extrêmement

inflammables et explosifs, ce qui peut provoquer des brûlures,

un incendie ou une explosion susceptibles d’entraîner la mort,

de graves blessures et/ou des dommages matériels.
