I. General Safety Precautions

• NEVER fill fuel tank indoors. Fill fuel tank outdoors
in a well-ventilated area.
• DO NOT smoke while refueling tank.

! WARNING
Read equipment manufacturer’s manual and this
material thoroughly before using this engine. Failure to
do so can result in serious injury or death. Consult your
local Authorized TecumsehPower Servicing Dealer, call
1-800-558-5402, or go to www.TecumsehPower.com for
additional information.

A. Avoid Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

• Use only an approved red GASOLINE container
to store and dispense fuel. TecumsehPower
Company recommends purchasing gasoline in
containers with a capacity of 2.5 gallons or less.
Small containers are easier to handle and help
eliminate spillage during refueling.
• DO NOT pour fuel from engine or siphon fuel by
mouth. To empty the fuel tank, see "I. Draining Fuel"
instructions on page 23.

C. Adult Supervision of Operation, Refueling
and Maintenance

All engine exhaust contains
carbon monoxide, a deadly
gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide can cause
headaches, dizziness,
drowsiness, nausea, confusion
and eventually death.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas
which may be present even if you DO NOT see or smell
any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of carbon monoxide can
collect rapidly and you can quickly be overcome and
unable to save yourself. Also, deadly levels of carbon
monoxide can linger for hours or days in enclosed or
poorly-ventilated areas. If you experience any symptoms of
carbon monoxide poisoning, leave the area immediately,
get fresh air, and SEEK MEDICAL TREATMENT.
To prevent serious injury or death from carbon monoxide:

The manufacturer of the equipment may provide
information about who is allowed to use this engine (see
equipment manufacturer’s manual). NOT everyone who is
allowed to use this engine is capable of safely and
responsibly operating, maintaining and/or fueling it.
TecumsehPower Company recommends the following:
• An adult should fuel this engine. NEVER allow
children to refuel this engine. See "C. Filling Fuel
Tank" instructions on page 6.
• An adult should perform maintenance on this
engine. See "VII. Maintenance" instructions on
page 13. Only allow children to perform maintenance if an adult has determined they are
experienced and capable of such operation.

• NEVER run engine indoors. Even if you try to
ventilate engine exhaust with fans or open windows
and doors, carbon monoxide can rapidly reach
dangerous levels.

• An adult should start the engine. See "G. Avoid
Accidental Starts" instructions on page 2. Only
allow children to start the engine if an adult has
determined they are experienced and capable of
such operation.

• NEVER run engine in poorly-ventilated or partially
enclosed areas such as barns, garages,
basements, carports, under dwellings, or in pits.

• To avoid unsupervised operation of the engine,
especially by children, NEVER leave it unattended
when it is running. Remove ignition key, if equipped.

• NEVER run engine outdoors where engine exhaust
can be drawn into a building through openings such
as windows and doors.

B. Avoid Gasoline Fires
Gasoline (fuel) vapors are highly flammable
and can explode. Fuel vapors can spread
and be ignited by a spark or flame many feet
away from engine. To prevent injury or death
from fuel fires, follow these instructions:
• NEVER store engine with fuel in fuel
tank inside a building with potential
sources of ignition such as hot water and space
heaters, clothes dryers, electric motors, etc.
• NEVER remove fuel fill cap or add fuel when engine
is running.
• NEVER start or operate the engine with the fuel fill
cap removed.

D. Stay Away from Rotating Parts
NEVER operate the engine with an unguarded engine shaft
or flywheel. See Figure 1 on page 2.
The equipment manufacturer may
attach a sprocket and chain or pulley
and belt to the engine shaft. If these
parts are NOT properly guarded, or if
you are NOT sure whether they are
properly guarded, DO NOT use your
engine; contact the equipment
manufacturer. Hands, feet, hair,
jewelry, clothing, etc.,can become
entangled in rotating parts, leading to
serious injury or death. To avoid
serious injury or death, be sure the
flywheel guard is in place. See Figure
1 on page 2.

• Allow engine to cool before refueling.

E. DO NOT Modify Engine
To avoid serious injury or death, DO NOT modify engine in
any way. Tampering with the governor setting can lead to a
runaway engine and cause it to operate at unsafe speeds.
NEVER tamper with factory setting of engine governor.

! WARNING
Use of this engine on fun-carts, go-karts, or mini-bikes
can result in serious injury or death. TecumsehPower
Company manufactures the Power Sport line of engines
for use in such applications. Consult your local Authorized
TecumsehPower Servicing Dealer, call 1-800-558-5402,
or visit www.TecumsehPower.com for additional information.

Avoid Burns and Fire from Hot Surfaces

Figure 1. Typical Flywheel Guard Location

The muffler and other engine parts become
extremely hot during operation and remain
hot after the engine has stopped.
• To avoid severe burns on contact,
STAY AWAY from hot areas of
engine. DO NOT operate the engine
without the muffler guard in place,
if equipped.
• To reduce the risk of fire keep all materials that can
burn, including grass and leaves, away from muffler
and rest of engine. DO NOT operate, idle or park
engine powered equipment in long dry grass or
other dry ground cover.

G. Avoid Accidental Starts

Figure 2. Disconnecting/Connecting Spark Plug
1

To prevent accidental starting when working on equipment
always:
• Carefully disconnect spark plug wire and keep it
away from spark plug. See Figures 2 and 3.
• Keep the disconnected spark plug wire
securely away from metal parts where arcing
could occur.
• Carefully attach the spark plug wire to the
grounding post, if provided.
• Disconnect battery at negative terminal first, if
engine is equipped with a DC electric starter.

A. Short-Term/Seasonal Storage

To avoid stale gas and carburetor problems, treat the fuel
system in the following method below:

NOTES
TecumsehPower Company recommends using
ULTRA-FRESH™ Gasoline Stabilizer as an acceptable
method of minimizing formation of fuel gum deposits during
storage. This product is available from your Authorized
TecumsehPower Servicing Dealer.

Clean Engine

Before servicing the engine remove the air cleaner cover
and/or blower housing. Remove grass clippings, dirt and
debris from the following areas:
• Cooling Fins
• Air Intake Screen

Always follow mix ratio found on stabilizer container. Failure
to do so may result in equipment damage.

• Levers

It is NOT necessary to empty stabilized gas from fuel tank.

• Linkage
• Guards

IV. Fuel Treatment

• Carburetor

1. Add fuel stabilizer according to manufacturer’s
instructions.

• Head
Removing debris will insure adequate cooling, correct
engine speed and reduce the risk of fire.

2. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer
to allow it to reach carburetor.
NEVER store engine with fuel in the
fuel tank inside a building with
potential sources of ignition such as hot water or space
heaters, clothes dryers, electric motors, etc. Doing so may
lead to an explosion resulting in death or serious injury.

WARNING
WARNING

NOTES
If engine fuel stored in the gas tank and/or an approved gas
container is to be unused without gasoline stabilizer for
more than 15-30 days, prepare it for short-term/seasonal
storage. See "IV. Fuel Treatment" instructions. Afterward,
continue reading instructions below.

NOTE
Instead of using a fuel preservative/stabilizer, you can
empty the fuel tank as described under "I. Draining Fuel"
instructions on page 23.

If engine fuel is to be stored for more than one season,
without gasoline stabilizer, it will gradually deteriorate. Also,
if it is stored in the engine’s gas tank without gasoline
stabilizer it is likely that your carburetor will have gum
deposits, a clogged fuel system and will void your warranty.
Prepare the fuel for extended storage. See "B. Extended
Storage" instructions on page 23. Afterward, continue

X. Preventing Forest, Brush and
Grass Fires
Local, state and federal laws may require use of a spark
arrester to prevent fires. For example, it is a violation of
California Public Resources Code (section 4442) to use or
operate engine on any forest-covered, brush-covered or
unimproved grass-covered land unless engine is equipped
with a spark arrester. Spark arrester must be maintained in
effective working order by owner and/or operator.
To determine if your engine has a spark arrester, locate the
muffler on your engine. For example, the muffler discharge
will have a spark arrester cover that reads “Screen Type
36085”.
If your engine does NOT have a spark arrester, you may
purchase one from your Authorized TecumsehPower
Servicing Dealer. In some cases the muffler may need to
be replaced to allow the spark arrester to be installed.

XI. Maintenance Intervals
Maintenance is one of the most important things that
you can do to extend the life of your TecumsehPower
engine. If you are unable to perform maintenance intervals
yourself, contact your nearest Authorized TecumsehPower
Servicing Dealer. Find them on our website at
www.TecumsehPower.com or call TecumsehPower
Company at 1-800-558-5402 for additional information.
ALWAYS promptly follow maintenance intervals listed in
this manual. See Table 5.

CALIFORNIA & US EPA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), the
California Air Resources Board (“CARB”) and TecumsehPower Company are pleased to explain the Federal and
California Emission Control Systems Warranty on your
new small off-road engine. In California, new 1995 and
later small off-road engines must be designed, built and
equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. In other states, new 1997 and later model year
engines must be designed, built and equipped, at the
time of sale, to meet the U.S. EPA regulations for small
non-road engines. TecumsehPower Company will warrant the emission control system on your small off-road
engine for the periods 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, air cleaner assembly, ignition system,
exhaust system, crankcase breather assembly and, the
evaporative control system. Also included may be the
compression release system and other emission-related
assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, TecumsehPower
Company will repair your small off-road engine at no cost
to you for diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEM WARRANTY COVERAGE
Emission control systems on 1995 and later model year
California small off-road engines are warranted for two
years as hereinafter noted. In other states, 1997 and later
model year engines are also warranted for two years. If,
during such warranty period, any emission-related part
on your engine is defective in materials or workmanship,
the part will be repaired or replaced by TecumsehPower
Company.
OWNER’S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES
As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible
for the performance of the required maintenance listed in
your Operator’s Manual, but TecumsehPower Company
will not deny warranty solely due to the lack of receipts or
for your failure to provide written evidence of the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
As the small off-road engine owner, you should, however,
be aware that TecumsehPower Company may deny you
warranty coverage if your small off-road engine or a part
thereof has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road
engine to a TecumsehPower Authorized Service Outlet

(any TecumsehPower Registered Service Dealer,
TecumsehPower Authorized Service Distributor or
TecumsehPower Central Warehouse Distributor) as soon
as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed
30 days.
Warranty service can be arranged by contacting either an
Authorized TecumsehPower Servicing Dealer and/or
TecumsehPower Company, c/o Service Manager, 900
North Street, Grafton, WI 53024-1499. Telephone 1-262377-2700 [or in USA/Canada call 1-800-558-5402].
IMPORTANT NOTE
This warranty statement explains your rights and obligations under the Emission Control System Warranty (“ECS
Warranty”) which is provided to you by TecumsehPower
Company pursuant to California law. TecumsehPower
Company also provides to original purchasers of new
TecumsehPower engines the TecumsehPower Company
Limited Warranties for New TecumsehPower Engines
and Electronic Ignition Modules. The TecumsehPower
Company Limited Warranties for New TecumsehPower
Engines and Electronic Ignition Modules (“TecumsehPower Company Warranty”) are located on the back
cover of the Operator’s Manual, enclosed with all new
TecumsehPower engines. The ECS Warranty applies
only to the emission control system of your new engine.
To the extent that there is any conflict in terms between
the ECS Warranty and the TecumsehPower Company
Warranty, the ECS Warranty shall apply except in any circumstances in which the TecumsehPower Company
Warranty may provide a longer warranty period. Both the
ECS Warranty and the TecumsehPower Company Warranty describe important rights and obligations with
respect to your new engine.
Warranty service can only be performed by a TecumsehPower
Authorized Servicing Dealer. At the time of requesting
warranty service, evidence must be presented of the date
of sale to the original purchaser. The purchaser shall pay
any charges for making service calls and/or for transporting the products to and from the place where the inspection and/or warranty work is performed. The purchaser
shall be responsible for any damage or loss incurred in
connection with the transportation of any engine or any
part(s) thereof submitted for inspection and/or warranty
work.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights
and responsibilities, you should contact TecumsehPower
Company at 1-262-377-2700 or in USA/Canada call
1-800-558-5402.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
Emission Control System Warranty (“ECS Warranty”) for 1995
and later model year California small off-road engines (for other
states, 1997 and later model year engines):
A. APPLICABILITY: This warranty shall apply to 1995 and later
model year California small off-road engines (for other states,
1997 and later model year engines). 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.
B. GENERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY COVERAGE:
TecumsehPower Company 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:
1. Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all
applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources
Board pursuant to its authority in Chapters 1 and 2, Part 5,
Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code, and
2. Free from defects in materials and workmanship which, at
any time during the ECS Warranty Period, will cause a
warranted emissions-related part to fail to be identical in all
material respects to the part as described in the engine
manufacturer’s application for certification.
C. THE ECS WARRANTY ONLY PERTAINS TO EMISSIONRELATED PARTS ON YOUR ENGINE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Any warranted, emissions-related parts which are not
scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the
Operator’s 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
TecumsehPower Company according to Subsection 4
below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS
Warranty shall be warranted for any remainder of the ECS
Warranty Period.
2. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled
only for regular inspection as specified in the Operator’s
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.
3. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled
for replacement as required maintenance in the Operator’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 TecumsehPower
Company according to Subsection 4 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.
4. Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissionsrelated part under this ECS Warranty shall be performed
at no charge to the owner at a TecumsehPower
Authorized Service Outlet.

5. 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 TecumsehPower Authorized
Service Outlet.
6. TecumsehPower Company 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.
7. Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, TecumsehPower
Company shall maintain a supply of warranted emissionrelated parts sufficient to meet the expected demand for
such emission-related parts.
8. Any TecumsehPower Company 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 TecumsehPower Company ECS
Warranty obligations.
9. Unapproved add-on or modified parts may not be used to
modify or repair a TecumsehPower engine. Such use
voids this ECS Warranty and shall be sufficient grounds
for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. TecumsehPower
Company shall not be liable hereunder for failures of any
warranted parts of a TecumsehPower engine caused by
the use of such an unapproved add-on or modified part.
EMISSION-RELATED PARTS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Carburetor Assembly including internal components:
