TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Serial Number Locations

There are two serial numbers, one for the engine (located below the 
fuel valve) and one for the mower frame. Record the engine and 
frame serial numbers in the space below. You will need these serial 
numbers when ordering parts and when making technical or warranty 
inquiries.

High Altitude Operation

At high altitudes, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too
rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. A
very rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting.
Operation at an altitude that differs from that at which this engine was
certified, for extended periods of time, may increase emissions.

High altitude performance can be improved by specific modifications 
to the carburetor. If you always operate your lawn mower at altitudes 
above 610 metres, have your servicing dealer perform this carburetor 
modification. This engine, when operated at high altitude with the 
carburetor modifications for high altitude use, will meet each emission 
standard throughout its useful life.

Even with carburetor modification, engine horsepower will decrease
about 3.5% for each 300-metre increase in altitude. The effect of
altitude on horsepower will be greater than this if no carburetor
modification is made.

NOTICE

When the carburetor has been modified for high altitude operation,
the air-fuel mixture will be too lean for low altitude use. Operation at
altitudes below 610 metres with a modified carburetor may cause the
engine to overheat and result in serious engine damage. For use at
low altitudes, have your servicing dealer return the carburetor to
original factory specifications.
