ENGINE TECHNICAL
INFORMATION
This is a single cylinder, overhead valve(OHV), air cooled
engine. It is a low emissions engine.
In the State of California, this type of engine is certified by
the California Air Resources Board to meet emissions
standards for 1000 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.
Emissions Compliance Period
This engine is certified to meet the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Phase 2
emission standards. For phase 2 certified engines, the
Emissions Compliance Period referred to on the Emissions
Compliance label indicates the number of operating hours
for which the engine has been shown to meet Federal
emission requirements. For engines less than 225 cc
displacement, Category C = 125 hours, B = 250 hours and
A = 500 hours. For engines of 225 cc or more, Category C
= 250 hours, B = 500 hours and A = 1000 hours.
This engine has an Air Index of 3.The EPA Emissions
compliance period is Category A.The displacement of this
engine is 407 cc.
Power Ratings
* The power ratings for an individual engine model are
initially developed by starting with SAE (Society of
Automotive Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine Power &
Torque Rating Procedure) (Revision 2002-05). Given both
the wide array of products on which our engines are
placed, and the variety of environmental issues applicable to
operating the equipment, it may be that the engine you
have purchased will not develop the rated horsepower
when used in a piece of power equipment (actual "on-site"
power).This difference is due to a variety of factors
including, but not limited to, the following: differences in
altitude, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, fuel,
engine lubrication, maximum governed engine speed,
individual engine to engine variability, design of the
particular piece of power equipment, the manner in which
the engine is operated, engine run-in to reduce friction and
clean out of combustion chambers, adjustments to the
SPECIFICATIONS
valves and carburetor, and other factors.The power ratings
may also be adjusted based on comparisons to other
similar engines utilized in similar applications, and will
therefore not necessarily match the values derived using
the foregoing codes.
