ENGINE TECHNICAL INFORMATION
This is a single cylinder, L-head, air cooled engine. It is a low
emissions engine.
In the State of California, Model Series 90000 engines are
certified by the California Air Resources Board to meet
emissions standards for 125 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 for individual gas engine models is
labeled in accordance with 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 will be lower
and is affected by, among other things, 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. Due to manufacturing and capacity
limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of
higher rated power for this Series engine.

ENGINE MAINTENANCE
Oil
Oil Recommendations
NOTE: Use a high quality detergent oil classified “For Service
SF, SG, SH, SJ” or higher. DO NOT use special additives.
1. Choose a viscosity according to the table below:
NOTE: Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC GF-2, API certification
mark and API service symbol with “SJ/CF ENERGY
CONSERVING” or higher, is an acceptable oil at all
temperatures. Use of synthetic oil does not alter required oil
change intervals.
SAE 30: 40°F and higher (5°C and higher) is good for all
purpose use above 40°F, use below 40°F will cause hard
starting.
10W-30: 0 to 100°F (-18 to 38°C) is better for varying
temperature conditions. This viscosity improves cold weather
starting, but may increase oil consumption above 80°F
(27°C).
*Check oil level frequently at higher temperatures.
Synthetic 5W-30: -20 to 120°F (-30 to 40 °C) provides the
best protection at all temperatures as well as improved
starting with less oil consumption.
5W-30: 40°F and below (5°C and below) is recommended for
winter use and works best in cold conditions.
Checking Oil Level
Oil level should be checked prior to each use or at least every
5 hours of operation. Keep oil level maintained.
1. Make sure pressure washer is on a level surface.
2. Remove oil dipstick and wipe dipstick with clean cloth.
Replace and tighten dipstick. Remove and and check oil
level.
3. Verify oil is at “Full” mark on dipstick. Replace and
tighten dipstick.
NEVER repair leaking connections with sealant of any kind.
Replace o-ring or seal.
The high pressure stream of water that this
equipment produces can cut through skin and its
underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and
possible amputation.
WARNING
WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR PRESSURE
WASHER
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and place
the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.
WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK
Use approved spark plug tester.

The spark arrester must be serviced every 50 hours to keep it
functioning as designed.
If the engine has been running, the muffler will be very hot.
Allow the muffler to cool before servicing spark arrester.
Remove spark arrester screen for cleaning and
inspection.
Replace if screen is damaged.
Air Cooling System
Over time debris may accumulate in cylinder cooling fins and
cannot be observed without partial engine disassembly. For
this reason, we recommend you have an authorized Sears
service dealer clean the cooling system per recommended
intervals (see “Maintenance Schedule” on page 16). Equally
important is to keep top of engine free from debris. See “Clean
Debris”.
Clean Combustion Chamber
We recommend you have an authorized Sears service dealer
remove combustion deposits from the cylinder, cylinder head,
top of piston and around valves per recommended intervals
(see “Maintenance Schedule” on page 16).
AFTER EACH USE
Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of time.
Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump parts and
“freeze” pump action. Follow these procedures after every
use:
1. Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing the filter into a
pail of clean water while running pressure washer in low
pressure mode. Flush for one to two minutes.
2. Shut off engine, turn off water supply, point gun in a
safe direction and squeeze trigger to relieve trapped
pressure, engage trigger lock on spray gun and let
engine cool.
3. Disconnect hose from spray gun and high pressure
outlet on pump. Drain water from hose, gun, and nozzle
extension. Use a rag to wipe off the hose.
4. Empty pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil
handle about six times. This should remove most liquid
in pump.
5. Store unit in a clean, dry area.
6. If storing for more than 30 days, see “Long Term
