hole away from the operator zone.
6. Start Engine. Extend and retract the wedge to purge
air from the hydraulic system. When the wedge
motion is smooth, the system is properly purged.
7. Check the hydraulic oil tank sight glass. Add
approximately 1 to 1.5 gallons (3.8 to 5.7 L) of
hydraulic oil to bring the level back up to the sight
glass.
8. Check oil level daily and add as needed.

1. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded fuel with a
minimum octane rating of 85 and an ethanol
content of less than 10% by volume.
2. DO NOT mix oil with fuel.
3. Clean the area around the fuel cap.
4. Remove the fuel cap.
5. Slowly add fuel to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Fuel can expand after filling. A minimum of ¼ in.
(6.4 mm) of space left in the tank is required
for fuel expansion, more than ¼ in. (6.4 mm) is
recommended. Fuel can be forced out of the tank
as a result of expansion if it is overfilled, and can
affect the stable running condition of the product.
When filling the tank, it is recommended to leave
enough space for the fuel to expand.
6. Screw on the fuel cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.

Add Engine Oil

CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to crank or start the engine before
it has been properly filled with the recommended
type and amount of oil. Damage to the log splitter
as a result of failure to follow these instructions will
void your warranty.
1. Make sure the log splitter is on a flat, level surface.
2. Remove oil fill cap/dipstick to add oil.
3. Add up to 0.6 qt. (0.6 L) of oil and replace oil fill
cap/dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL.
4. Check engine oil level daily and add as needed.

CAUTION
The engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and
the will stop when the oil level in the crankcase
falls below the threshold level.

NOTE
Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to
the Maintenance section for recommended service
intervals.

REV 92251-1-20131206

CAUTION
Use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane
rating of 85.
Do not mix oil and gasoline.
Fill tank to approximately ¼ in. (6.4 mm) below the top
of the tank to allow for fuel expansion.
DO NOT pump gas directly into the engine at the gas
station. Use an approved container to transfer the fuel to
the engine.
DO NOT fill fuel tank indoors.
DO NOT fill fuel tank when the engine is running or hot.
DO NOT overfill the fuel tank.
DO NOT light cigarettes or smoke when filling the fuel tank.

WARNING
Pouring fuel too fast through the fuel screen may
result in blow back of fuel at the operator while filling.

NOTE
Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol blend
fuels. When using blended fuels there are some issues
worth noting:
– Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone.
– These blends can eventually separate, leaving water
or a watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and carburetor.
– With gravity-fed fuel supplies, this compromised fuel
can be drawn into the carburetor and cause damage
to the engine and/or potential hazards.
– There are only a few suppliers of fuel stabilizer that
are formulated to work with ethanol blend fuels.
– Any damages or hazards caused by using improper
fuel, improperly stored fuel, and/or improperly
formulated stabilizers, are not covered by
manufacture’s warranty.
It is advisable to always shut off the fuel supply, run the
engine to fuel starvation and drain the tank when the
equipment is not in use for more than 30 days.

Champion Power Equipment, Inc (CPE),
Emission Control System Warranty
Your Champion Power Equipment (CPE) engine complies with Environment Canada (EC) emission
regulations.
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS:
CPE is pleased to explain the Emission Control Systems Warranty on your 201 small off-road engine.
New engines must be designed, built and equipped, at the time of sale, to meet EC regulations for small
non-road engines. CPE must warrant the emission control system on your small off-road engine for the
period of time listed below, provided there has been no abuse, neglect, unapproved modification, or
improper maintenance of your small off-road engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor, fuel-injection system, the ignition
system, catalytic converter and fuel lines. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other
emission related assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exits, CPE will repair your small off-road
engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY COVERAGE:
This emission control system is warranted for two years, subject to provisions set forth below. If, during
the warranty period, emission related part on your engine is defective in materials or workmanship, the
part will be repaired or replaced by CPE.
OWNER WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance
listed in your Owner’s Manual. CPE recommends that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance
on your small off-road engine, but CPE cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your
failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the small off-road engine owner, you should however be aware that CPE may deny you
warranty coverage if your small, off-road engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect,
improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to an Authorized CPE service outlet, CPE
dealer or CPE, Santa Fe Springs, CA., USA as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact:

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
The following are specific provisions relative to your Emission Control System Warranty
Coverage.
Emission Control System Warranty (ECS Warranty):
1. APPLICABILITY: The ECS Warranty Period shall begin on the date the new engine or equipment is
delivered to its original, end-use purchaser, and shall continue for 24 consecutive months thereafter.
2. GENERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE
CPE warrants to the original, end-use purchaser of the new engine or equipment and to each subsequent
purchaser that each of its small off-road engines is:
a. Designed, built and equipped so as to conform at the time of sale with applicable regulations
under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999).
b. Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to be
identical in all material respects to the part as described in the engine manufacturer’s application for
certification for a period of two years.
3. THE WARRANTY ON EMISSION-RELATED PARTS WILL BE INTERPRETED AS
FOLLOWS:
a. Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the
Owners Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS
Warranty Period, it shall be repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below. Any such
part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for any remainder of the ECS
Warranty Period.
b. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled only for regular inspection as
specified in the Owners Manual shall be warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. A statement in such
written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary”, shall not reduce the ECS Warranty
Period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for the remainder
of the ECS Warranty Period.
c. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance in the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled
replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first scheduled replacement, the part shall be
repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below. Any such emissions-related part repaired
or replaced under the ECS Warranty, shall be warranted for the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period
prior to the first scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related part.
d. Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissions-related part under this ECS Warranty shall
be performed at no charge to the owner at a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.
e. The owner shall not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a
part covered by the ECS Warranty is in fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at
a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.
f. CPE shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or approved modifications
proximately caused by a failure under warranty of an emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.
g. Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, CPE shall maintain a supply of warranted emissionrelated parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for such emission-related parts.
h. Any CPE Authorized and approved emission-related replacement part may be used in the
performance of any ECS Warranty maintenance or repair and will be provided without charge to the
owner. Such use shall not reduce CPE’s warranty obligation.
i. Unapproved add-on or modified parts may not be used to modify or repair a CPE engine. Such
use voids this ECS Warranty and shall be sufficient grounds for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. CPE
shall not be liable hereunder for failures of any warranted parts of a
CPE engine caused by the use of such an unapproved add-on or modified part.

EMISSION-RELATED PARTS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING: (using those portions of the list
applicable to the engine)
Systems covered by this warranty
Fuel Metering System
Air Induction System
Ignition System
Exhaust System
Miscellaneous Parts

Parts Description
Fuel regulator, Carburetor and internal parts
Air cleaner, Intake manifold
Spark plug and parts, Magneto ignition system
Exhaust manifold, catalytic converter
Tubing, Fittings, Seals, Gaskets, and Clamps
associated with these listed systems.

TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE:
You must take your CPE engine or the product on which it is installed, along with your warranty
registration card or other proof of original purchase date, at your expense, to any Champion Power
Equipment dealer who is authorized by Champion Power Equipment, Inc. to sell and service that CPE
product during his normal business hours. Claims for repair or adjustment found to be caused solely by
defects in material or workmanship will not be denied because the engine was not properly maintained
and used.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, or to obtain
warranty service, please write or call Customer Service at Champion Power Equipment, Inc.
