Engine Technical Information
This is a single cylinder, overhead valve(OHV), air
cooled engine. It is a low emissions engine.
In the State of California, Model Series 200000
engines are certified by the California Air Resources
Board to meet emissions standards for 250 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 emissions warranties stated
elsewhere in this manual.
Power Ratings
* The gross power rating labels for individual gas
engine models meet or exceed 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).
Actual gross engine power may be lower and is
affected by, but not limited to, 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 piece of power equipment (actual “on-site” or
net horsepower). 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.

NOTE:
For practical operation, the generator load
should not exceed 85% of rated wattage. Engine
gross horsepower will decrease 3-1/2% for each
1,000 feet (300 meters) above sea level and 1% for
each 10°F (5.6°C) above 77°F (25°C). It should
operate satisfactorily at an angle up to 15°.
