Safety Precautions

Before operating the engine, read this manual and become

familiar with it and the equipment. Safe and efﬁ cient operation

can be achieved only if the equipment is properly operated and

maintained.

The following symbols, found throughout this manual, alert you to

potentially dangerous conditions to the operator, service personnel, or

the equipment.

This symbol warns of immediate hazards which will

result in severe personal injury or death.

This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice

which can result in severe personal injury or death.

This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice

which can result in personal injury or product or property

damage.

Fuels, electrical equipment, batteries, exhaust gases and moving parts

present potential hazards that can result in severe personal injury.

Take care in following these recommended procedures. All local, state

and federal codes should be consulted and complied with.

This engine is not designed or intended for use in

any type of aircraft. Use of this engine in aircraft can result

in engine failure and cause severe personal injury or

death.

GENERAL

• Provide appropriate ﬁ re extinguishers and install them in convenient

locations. Use an extinguisher rated ABC by NFPA.

• Make sure that all fasteners on the engine are secure and

accurately torqued. Keep guards in position over fans, driving belts,

etc.

• If it is necessary to make adjustments while the engine is

running, use extreme caution when close to hot exhausts,

moving parts, etc.

• Used engine oils have been identiﬁ ed by some state and

federal agencies as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. When

checking or changing engine oil, take care not to ingest, breathe

the fumes, or contact used oil.

• Do not work on this equipment when mentally or physically

fatigued, or after consuming any alcohol or drug that makes

the operation of equipment unsafe.

BATTERIES

• Before starting work on the engine, disconnect batteries to prevent

inadvertent starting of the engine. Disconnect negative (-) cable ﬁ rst.

• DO NOT SMOKE while servicing batteries. Lead acid batteries give

off a highly explosive hydrogen gas which can be ignited by ﬂ ame,

electrical arcing or by smoking.

• Verify battery polarity before connecting battery cables. Connect

negative (-) cable last.

PROTECT AGAINST MOVING PARTS

• Do not wear loose clothing in the vicinity of moving parts, such as

PTO shafts, ﬂ ywheels, blowers, couplings, fans, belts, etc.

• Keep your hands away from moving parts

FUEL SYSTEMS

• DO NOT ﬁ ll fuel tank while engine is running

• DO NOT smoke or use an open ﬂ ame in the vicinity of the engine or

fuel tank. Internal combustion engine fuels are highly ﬂ ammable.

• Fuel line must be made of steel tubing which adequately secured,

and free from leaks. Tubing which connects to the carburetor should

be factory approved ﬂ exible line. Do not use copper tubing as the

ﬂ exible lines as copper will harden and become brittle enough to

break.

• Be sure all fuel supplies have a positive shutoff valve.

• Benzene and lead, found in some gasoline, have been identiﬁ ed by

some state and federal agencies as causing cancer or reproductive

toxicity. When checking, draining, or adding gasoline take care not

to ingest, breathe fumes, or contact the gasoline.

EXHAUST SYSTEM

• Exhaust products of any internal combustion engine are toxic and

can cause injury, or death it inhaled. When operating the engine in a

conﬁ ned area, make sure the ventilation system is operating

properly.

• DO NOT use exhaust gases to heat a compartment.

• Make sure that your exhaust system is free of leaks. Make sure that

exhaust manifolds are secure and are not warped by bolts unevenly

torqued.

EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY!

Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, a poisonous gas that can

cause unconsciousness and death. It is an odorless and colorless gas

formed during combustion of hydrocarbon fuels. Symptoms of carbon

monoxide poisoning are:

• Dizziness

• Vomiting

• Headache

• Muscular Twitching

• Throbbing in Temples

• Weakness and Sleepiness

If you experience any of these symptoms, get out into fresh air imme-

diately, shut down the unit and do not use it until it has been inspected.

The best protection against carbon monoxide inhalation is proper

installation and regular, frequent inspections of the complete exhaust

system. If you notice a change in the sound or appearance of exhaust

system, shut the unit down immediately and have it inspected and

repaired at once by a competent mechanic.

KEEP THE UNIT AND SURROUNDING AREA CLEAN

• Make sure that oily rags are not left on or near the engine.

• Remove all unnecessary grease and oil from the unit. Accumulated

grease and oil can cause overheating and subsequent engine

damage and present a potential ﬁ re hazard.

Introduction

ABOUT THIS MANUAL

This manual covers the operation and maintenance of the horizontal-

shaft Robin Subaru EH65 engines for welder applications (OHV220

Performer Series). Each operator of the power equipment should study

this engine manual carefully and observe all of its instructions and

precautions. Proper use and periodic maintenance are responsibilities

of the operator(s) and are essential for top performance.

MODEL IDENTIFICATION

Whenever contacting a dealer or distributor for information, parts or

service, always provide the model number and the serial number

marked on the nameplate of the engine.

Robin engines are identiﬁ ed by MODEL, SPECIFICATION, and CODE

NUMBER. For each model there may be many different versions

called speciﬁ cations. Each speciﬁ cation will be unique in some way.

The difference may only be the paint color or it may have a different

type of PTO or some other signiﬁ cant difference.

In order to identify the correct service part number, it is important

to conﬁ rm the speciﬁ cation and code numbers for your engine. The

speciﬁ cation and code number together are know as the PRODUCT

NUMBER.

All Robin 4 cycle engine have a Product Number label similar to the

label illustrated to the right.

Description

FEATURES

• Overhead valve arrangement enables high power, and low fuel and

oil consumption

• V-Twin, four stroke design

• Air-cooled and gasoline fueled

• The light weight and compact design makes it easy to install and

utilize for many applications.

• A steel crankshaft and high-load bearing offer durability

• Pressure lubrication system and large capacity air cleaner enhance

reliability of the engine.

• The combustion chamber shape, along with a tuned exhaust valve

system, enhance the low exhaust emission and provides high

torque at low speed.

Standard features include a fuel cut-of valve, a 12V-15 amp alternator

and a pulse-type fuel pump.

The ﬂ ywheel-type governor gear provides constant operation at the

selected speed against load variations.

The carburetor is a down draft, ﬂ oat controlled fuel system with a ﬁ xed

main jet. A fuel cut-off valve is provided to secure engine shut-down

when the switch is turned off. Carburetors are calibrated for sure

starting, good acceleration, low fuel consumption and adequate power

output.

Installation

LOCATING

Locate the engine at least 1 meter (3.0 ft) away from buildings or other

structures. Provide proper exhaust routing. Refer to EXHAUST SYS-

TEM below. Do not use the engine near ﬂ ammables or other hazard-

ous materials such as trash, rags, lubricants, or explosives.

When determining the mounting location, make sure of the following:

• Gas and oil can easily be checked and supplied

• Oil can be changed.

• The air cleaner can be serviced

• Spark plugs can be checked.

Carefully examine the engines position, the method of connecting it to

a machine, and the foundation and support structure.

Locate the engine in a safe area on a stable level surface free of small

rock, loose gravel, etc.

Operating the engine on an incline may cause

seizure due to improper lubrication; even at

maximum oil level.

EXHAUST SYSTEM

EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY! Engine-powered equipment must never

be operated inside buildings or other enclosed spaces.

If a long exhaust pipe is used, the internal resistance results in loss

of engine power. The exhaust pipe ID must increase in proportion to

exhaust pipe length. For example, if the exhaust pipe is:

less than 3.0 m (9.8 ft.) long - pipe ID = 30mm (1-3/16in)

less than 5.0 m (16.4 ft)long - pipe ID = 33mm (1.3in)

It is the responsibility of the equipment operator(s) to check for

exhaust leaks on a daily basis and to have all leaks repaired before

continuing to operate the equipment.

FUEL

Fuel Tank

The fuel tank system must be provided by the OEM. A fuel

shut-off valve must connected between the fuel line and the fuel pump.

The fuel tank may be mounted up to 0.66 meters (2.0ft) below the

! CAUTION

carburetor.

If the tank is mounted above the carburetor, a fuel shut-off valve must

be connected between the fuel tank and the fuel pump.

Note: To prevent fuel from ﬂ ooding the carburetor, the fuel valve

must be closed when the engine is not running.

Properly install fuel lines to the carburetor by completely inserting the

hose onto the ﬁ tting and then secure it with a hose clamp.

Gaseous fuels are ﬂ ammable and explosive and

can cause severe personal injury or death.

Do not smoke if you smell gas or are near fuel

tanks or fuel-buring equipment or are in an area

sharing ventilation with such equipment. Keep

ﬂ ames, sparks, pilot lights, electrical switches,

arc-producing equipment and all other sources

of ignition well away. Keep a type ABC ﬁ re

extinguisher handy.

Do not reﬁ ll the fuel tank while the engine is running. Do not overﬁ ll the

tank.

Wipe away any spilled fuel and wait until it has dried before starting

the engine.

! WARNING

Fuel recommendations

Use clean, fresh unleaded gasoline having a minimum octane rat-

ing (Anti-Knock Index) of 87. This engine is certiﬁ ed to operate on

unleaded gasoline.

During some periods of the year only mandated “oxygenated” gaso-

lines may be available. These are acceptable for use, but not prefer-

able. Do not use gasoline or gasoline additives (de-icers) containing

methanol because methanol can be corrosive to fuel system compo-

nents.

Do not use gasoline or gasoline additives

containing methanol because methanol can be

corrosive to fuel system components.

! CAUTION

ENGINE OIL

Recommendations

Use premium quality motor oil, Class SJ or SL. Look for the SAE

(Society of Automotive Engineers) or API viscosity grade. Referring to

the table below, choose the viscosity grade appropriate for the ambient

temperatures expected during the period of time until the next sched-

uled oil change.

Single-grade SAE 30 oil is preferable when temperatures are 50° and

90°F (10° - 32°C).

If multi-grade oil is used, oil consumption tends to increase if the ambi-

ent temperature is high.

Filling and Change Interval

After the ﬁ rst 20 hours of operation the initial oil and oil ﬁ lter should be

replaced.

Thereafter, change the oil every 100 hours of operation and change

the oil ﬁ lter every 200 hours.

Apply a thin coat of oil to the oil ﬁ lter gasket surface and install by

tightening the oil ﬁ lter about 3/4 turn after the seal has reached the

crankcase surface.

The oil capacity of the crankcase is 1.55L (53 ﬂ .oz.).

When ﬁ lling the crankcase, keep the engine level and ﬁ ll up to the up-

per mark of the oil gauge. Check the oil with the oil gauge pushed all

the way in its seat.

Crankcase pressure can blow hot engine oil out

the ﬁ ll tube causing severe burns. Always stop

the engine before removing the oil ﬁ ll cap or the

oil gauge.

tween the drive shaft and the engine shaft. The run-out and misalign-

ment tolerances are speciﬁ ed by the coupling manufacturer.

Operation

EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY!

Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, an odorless and color-

less gas. Carbon monoxide is poisonous and can cause uncon-

sciousness and death. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning

include:

• Dizziness • Throbbing in Temples

• Nausea • Muscular Twitching

• Headache • Vomiting

• Weakness and Sleepiness

• Inability to Think Coherently

IF YOU OR ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCE ANY OF THESE SYMP-

TOMS, GET INTO THE FRESH AIR IMMEDIATELY. If symptoms

persist, seek medical attention. Shut down the engine and do not

operate it until it has been inspected and repaired.

Make certain the exhaust system is properly installed. Inspect

it every time the engine is started and after every eight hours of

continuous operation.

PRE-START CHECKS

Before the ﬁ rst start of the day and after every eight hours of operation

perform the maintenance procedures in DAILY

(8 HOUR) MAINTENANCE in the Maintenance Section.

Keep a log of maintenance and the running hours. Perform any main-

tenance that may be due. If the equipment has been in storage, return

the engine to service as instructed under

RETURNING THE ENGINE TO SERVICE in this section.

1. Inspect exhaust system for loose joints, rusty, worn or damaged

areas. Do not operate engine until all leaks are repaired.

2. Check the fuel level and reﬁ ll if necessary. Open the fuel shut-off

valve (if equipped).

3. Make sure fuel hoses and connections are tight. Check for

! WARNING

any indications of fuel leakage. Do not operate engine until

all leaks are repaired.

4. Check and tighten any loose bolts or nuts.

5. Check the oil and reﬁ ll, if necessary. Do not overﬁ ll.

Starting the engine without oil will cause severe

engine damage.

Always keep the engine oil level between the

Full and Add marks on the dipstick.

6. Wear snug ﬁ tting clothes when operating the engine. Loose

articles of clothing could get caught in the engine or drive train.

Moving parts can cause severe personal injury or

Stay clear of hot or moving parts. Make sure all

protective shields and guards are secure in place

before starting the equipment.

! CAUTION

! WARNING

STARTING

1. Move the choke lever to the full-choke position. On equipment

with a solenoid operated choke, push the switch to its choke

position. In warm weather, however, or when the engine is warm,

try starting without the choke or in the half-way position.

2. Turn the ignition switch to START and hold it there until the engine

starts. Do not crank for more than 5 seconds at a time.

If the engine fails to start, set the switch to RUN and wait 10

seconds before the next attempt. See Troubleshooting if the

engine does not start after several tries. Never turn the switch to

START while the engine is running.

23 24

In colder weather, the engine will take longer to begin

running smoothly with the choke open.

Do not operate the equipment until the choke is fully open.

STOPPING

To stop the engine turn the switch to the STOP position.

ENGINE BREAK-IN

For top engine performance, new or rebuilt engines require a break-

in period to obtain the ideal ﬁ tting of internal moving metal parts. To

break-in the engine:

1. Run the engine at 2500 rpm, without a load, for 10 minutes.

2. Run the engine at 3,000 rpm for 10 minutes.

3. Run the engine at 3,600 rpm for 10 minutes.

4. Run the engine with a load of 8HP at 3,600 rpm for 30 minutes.

5. Run the engine with a load of 16HP at 3,600 rpm for 30 minutes.

Frequently check for oil leaks during break-in.

After the ﬁ rst 20 hours of normal operation, change the oil and oil ﬁ lter.

Refer to

Maintenance for procedures.

OPERATING IN DUSTY CONDITIONS

1. Keep the engine cooling ﬁ ns and ﬂ ywheel air inlet screen clean.

2. Perform air cleaner maintenance more often than normal-as

required.

3. Change the engine oil and oil ﬁ lter more often than normal.

HOT AND COLD WEATHER PRECAUTIONS

Hot Weather

Pay particular attention to the following items when operating the

engine in temperatures above 100°F (38°C):

1. Keep the ﬂ ywheel air inlet screen and cylinder cooling ﬁ ns clean.

Make sure that nothing obstructs air ﬂ ow to and from the engine

2. Check the oil level more frequently.

3. Change the oil and oil ﬁ lter more often than normal.

4. Make sure the engine oil viscosity is appropriate for the ambient

temperatures and change the oil if necessary.

Cold Weather

Pay particular attention to the following items when operating the

engine in temperatures blow freezing:

1. Make sure the engine oil viscosity is appropriate for the ambient

temperatures and change the oil if necessary. If the temperature

drops before you have the chance to change the oil, warn the

engine by moving the equipment into a heated space before

attempting to start the engine or change the oil.

3. After the engine starts, slowly push the choke to the full-

open position. Pull it back, if necessary, to keep the engine

running smoothly until the engine is at operating temperature

25 26

! WARNING

EXHAUST GAS IS DEADLY!

Never operate engine-powered equipment

indoors without a proper exhaust system, ample fresh

air ventilation and an operable carbon monoxide

detector.

2. Use fresh gasoline and ﬁ ll the fuel tank after each day’s use to

reduce problems with moisture condensation if this is a gasoline

engine.

3. Keep the battery in a well-charged condition.

4. After each use push the equipment throttle knob or lever to the

middle of its speed range. Then, if ice forms on the linkage during

storage it will be easier to start the engine.

OUT-OF-SERVICE PROTECTION

Protect an engine that will be out of service for more than 30 days as

follows:

1 Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature then,

shut-off the fuel supply and let the engine run until it stops.

2 If the equipment will not be operated for more than 30days, add a

fuel preservative (ie. Sta-Bil) to the equipment fuel tank. Follow the

instructions on the container label. Unless a preservative is added,

gasoline will deteriorate causing fuel system corrosion, gum

formation and varnish-like deposits which can lead to hard starting

and rough operation.

3 Drain oil from the engine while it is still warm. Reﬁ ll with fresh oil

and attach a tag stating the viscosity of the oil used.

4 To prevent rust in the cylinder bore, remove the spark plug and pour

30mL (2 tbsp. or 1oz.) of SAE 30 oil in the opening. Turn the

crankshaft several times by hand and reinstall the spark plug.

5 Clean the outside of the engine with an oiled cloth.

6 Perform air cleaner maintenance as instructed in Periodic

Maintenance.

7 Plug the exhaust outlet to prevent moisture, dirt, bugs, ect. from

entering.

Battery gas is explosive. Wear safety glasses

and do not smoke while servicing batteries. Lead acid

batteries give off a highly explosive hydrogen gas

which can be ignited by ﬂ ame, electrical arcing or

smoking.

8 Disconnect the battery (negative (-) cable ﬁ rst) and follow the

battery or equipment manufacturer’s storage instructions.

9 Cover the engine with a plastic sheet or canvas and store in a dry

place.

RETURNING THE ENGINE TO SERVICE

1 Remove the cover and all protective wrapping and the plug from the

exhaust outlet.

2 Check the tag on the oil base. Change the oil if the viscosity is not

appropriate for the expected ambient temperatures.

3 Check the fuel ﬁ lter and fuel lines to make sure they are secure and

have no cracks.

4 Check that the choke, throttle and governor linkages move freely.

5 If so equipped, clean and check the battery according to the battery

or equipment manufacturer’s instructions and connect the battery

cables (positive (+) cable ﬁ rst).

6 Start the engine. The initial startup may be slow and there may be

smoke and rough operation for a few minutes until the oil in

the cylinder burns off. If the engine does not start, clean or replace

the spark plug as it may have been fouled by the oil added to the

cylinder when the equipment was stored.

running. Look for cracks and severe rusting in the mufﬂ er and

tailpipe. Have all leaks repaired before continuing to operate the

equipment.

Hot exhaust parts can cause severe burns.

Allow the engine time to cool before servicing

the exhaust system.

3 Check the engine for dirt and debris and clean the ﬂ ywheel air inlet

screen and cylinder cooling ﬁ ns as necessary.

A clogged ﬂ ywheel air inlet screen or dirty cooling

ﬁ ns can cause overheating and engine damage. Keep

the cooling ﬁ ns and air inlet screen clean.

4 Check the engine oil level The equipment must be parked on a level

surface ad the engine stopped. To get an accurate reading, wait a

minute or so to allow the oil to settle in the crankcase if the engine

has been running.

! CAUTION

! WARNING

Crankcase pressure can blow hot engine oil out

the ﬁ ll tube causing severe burns. Always stop

the engine before removing the oil ﬁ ll cap.

If the engine is equipped with the long oil ﬁ ll tube, turn the oil ﬁ ll cap

counterclockwise and lift it up. Wipe the dip stick clean, push it back

into the oil ﬁ ll tube until the cap seats. Withdraw it again to check the

oil level.

CHANGING OIL AND FILTER

Change the oil and ﬁ lter after the ﬁ rst 20 hours of operation. Thereaf-

ter, change oil every 50 hours and the ﬁ lter every 200 hours.

State and federal agencies have determined that

contact with used engine oil can cause cancer or

reproductive toxicity. Take care to limit skin contact

and breathing of vapors as much as possible. Use

rubber gloves and wash exposed skin.

29 30

! WARNING

1 Run the engine until it is warm. Stop the engine and disconnect the

spark plug wires and the battery (negative (-) cable).

Accidental starting of the engine can result in severe

personal injury or death. Always disconnect the spark

plug wires and the battery (negative (-) cable) before

changing oil.

2 Remove the oil ﬁ ll cap.

Crankcase pressure can blow hot engine oil out the

ﬁ ll opening causing severe burns. Always stop the

engine before removing the oil ﬁ ll cap.

3 To drain oil from crankcase, loosen the drain valve then twist the

outer casing to unlock. The valve is ﬁ tted with an adapter for a drain

tube if desired.

! WARNING

4 Place a pan under the oil drain opening and open the oil drain plug.

Close the plug securely after the oil has drained completely.

5 Spin off the oil ﬁ lter, drain the oil and discard the ﬁ lter according to

local regulations.

6 Thoroughly wipe off the ﬁ lter mounting surface.

7 Make sure the gasket is in place on the ﬁ lter canister and apply a

thin ﬁ lm of oil to the gasket.

8 Spin the new ﬁ lter on by hand until the gasket just touches the

mounting surface, then turn it an additional 1/2 to 3/4 turn. Do not

overtighten.

9 Reﬁ ll with class SE (API) of higher having a viscosity grade

appropriate for the expected ambient temperature.

31 32

10 DO NOT FILL TO A LEVEL ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE

DIPSTICK. Drain the excess oil if too much has been added.

Too much oil can cause high oil consumption, high

operating temperatures and oil foaming. Too little oil

can cause severe engine damage. Keep the oil level

between the Full and Add marks on the dipstick.

11 Reconnect the spark plug wires and battery.

12 Start the engine and run it for a short time while checking for oil

leaks around the drain plug and oil ﬁ lter. Do not overtighten: tighten

only as necessary to eliminate leaks.

Used oil is harmful to the environment. Pour the used oil into a sealed

container and deliver it to the nearest recycling center.

AIR CLEANER MAINTENANCE

Refer to the Maintenance Table for the air cleaner assembly.

Outer Cover

To remove the air cleaner cover, rotate the wing nut counterclockwise

and remove.

! CAUTION

Install the foam wrapper over the paper air cleaner element by stretch-

ing it over the inner cover. Completely cover all exposed paper pleats.

Replace the air cleaner assembly when it becomes torn or stretched.

Air Cleaner Element Replacement

To keep anything from entering the carburetor and engine while the

air cleaner element is off, pull the choke knob to the full-choke posi-

tion to close the choke plate in the carburetor. Remove the outer cover

and wipe away loose dust and debris from the air cleaner assembly.

Remove the air cleaner assembly. Wipe off dust and debris from the air

cleaner base. Use forced air to blow off dust and debris from the paper

element.

Reinstall the paper element on the engine. Replace the foam wrapper

and outer cover. Secure with the wing nut.

Element Set

P/N 263-32610-A1

Foam Filter

Remove and wash the urethane foam in water and detergent.

Squeeze the foam wrapper dry like a sponge. Rinse with clean water

and allow it to dry. Coat the wrapper evenly with 14 mL (one tbsp.) of

SAE 30 engine oil. Knead the oil into the wrapper and squeeze out the

excess oil.

Note: Failure to adequately wring out excess oil from the wrapper

may cause a drop in engine power due to restriction of inlet air.

33 34

! WARNING

SPARK PLUG MAINTENANCE AND REPLACEMENT

Refer to the Speciﬁ cations for spark plug type and gap speciﬁ cations.

Check and clean spark plugs every 200 hours. Replace plugs every

500 hours.

To prevent cross threading the spark plug, always thread it in by hand

until it seats. If the spark plug is being reused, turn it with a wrench

and additional 1/4 turn. If the spark plug is new, turn it an additional 3/8

to 1/2 turn. If you have a torque wrench, tighten a new spark plug to

11.8-14.7 N-m (120-150 Kg/cm) (8.7-10.9 ft/lb).

CHECKING BATTERIES

Every 50 hours or once a month check the ﬂ uid level of the battery.

Reﬁ ll with distilled water if levels are low.

Battery gas is explosive. Wear safety glasses and do

not smoke while servicing batteries. Lead acid

batteries give off a highly explosive hydrogen gas

which can be ignited by ﬂ ame, electrical arcing or

smoking.

If the battery is to be replaced, disconnect the

negative cable ﬁ rst, and reconnect it last.

Adjustments

CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENTS

These engines have precision-manufactured carburetors which are not

adjustable.

Engine Speed Solenoid (Optional)

Normally, the engine speed does not require any adjustment. These

instructions are for the equipment manufacturer in setting up and

adjusting the equipment.

The speed control solenoid monitors the rate of the load and automati-

cally adjusts the engine to the appropriate idle speed.

To adjust the speed control solenoid:

1 Run the engine with no load until the engine control times out

(about 15 seconds) and energizes the solenoid.

2 Adjust engine to 2200 RPM by loosening the two slotted screws

retaining the solenoid.

3 Slide solenoid forward to increase the speed, or backwards to

decrease the speed.

4 Retighten the two screws.

Following reassembly of either the carburetor or intake manifold, re-

align the governor arm on the governor shaft BEFORE making speed

adjustments to compensate for the slightly different alignment of parts.

Governor and Speed Control Assembly

1 Speed Control Solenoid Adjust Screw (2) (Optional)

2 Governor Adjust Screws

3 Governor Lever

4 Speed Control High Stop Adjust Screw

5 Manual Throttle Control Link

6 Low Idle Adjust Screw

7 Choke Control Linkage

Troubleshooting

The table below provides basic troubleshooting guidance. If you fail

to resolve the problem after taking the corrective actions suggested,

contact the equipment manufacturer or a Robin Subaru dealer.

Many troubleshooting procedures present hazards

that can result in severe personal injury. Only

qualiﬁ ed service personnel with knowledge of fuels,

electricity, and machinery hazards should perform

service procedures.

Review the safety precautions on the inside cover

page.

Hot engine parts can cause severe burns. Always

allow the engine time to cool before performing any

maintenance or service.

! WARNING

Speed Control Adjustments

Engine speed adjustment must be attempted only by a qualiﬁ ed me-

chanic and the adjustments must be made using an accurate tachom-

eter. It is recommended that low-idle speed be adjusted between 2150

to 2250 RPM and high idle speed 3700 to 3800 RPM. Check in your

welder manufacture’s manual for exact speed settings.

High Altitude Engine Operation

• Please have an authorized Robin America service dealer modify

this engine if it is to be run continuously above 5,000 feet (1,500

meters). Failure to do so, may result in poor engine performance,

spark plug fouling, hard starting, and increased emissions.

• Carburetor modiﬁ cation by an authorized Robin America service

dealer will improve performance and allow that this engine meets

EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and California ARB (Air

Resources Board) emission standards throughout its useful life.

• An engine converted for high altitudes can not be run at 5,000 feet

or lower. In doing so, the engine will overheat and cause serious

engine damage. Please have an authorized Robin America service

dealer restore high altitude modiﬁ ed engines to the original factory

speciﬁ cation before operating below 5,000 feet.

Spark Arrestor (Optional)

In a dry or wooded area, it is recommendable to use the engine with a

spark arrestor. Some areas require the use of a spark arrestor. Please

check your local laws and regulations before operating your engine.
