If you think your carburetor needs adjusting, see your 
nearest Authorized Tecumseh Servicing Dealer. Engine 
performance should NOT be affected at altitudes up to 
7,000 feet (2,134 meters). For operation at higher

Dealer.

Authorized Tecumseh Servicing Dealer.

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.

After each use, remove snow from the following areas: 

• Oil Fill Cap/Dipstick

• Fuel Fill Cap 

• Recoil Starter/Flywheel Screen 

• Linkage 

• Guards

• Spark Plug Connection (If visible).

• Electric Starter Switch Box, if present (see 

equipment manufacturer’s instructions). 
See "A. Engines with Electric Starters" instructions 
on page 10. Afterward, continue reading 
instructions below.

Removing snow will ease operation of the recoil starter 
rope and reduce the risk of water contamination when 
opening fuel fill cap. 

NEVER transport this engine inside 
another vehicle or in any enclosed 

space if there is any gasoline in the tank. Fuel vapor or 
spilled fuel may ignite.

If there is fuel in the fuel tank, close 
the fuel valve, if equipped, and 

transport the engine upright in an open vehicle, such as an 
open trailer or open bed of a pickup truck.
If you DO NOT have an open vehicle and have to transport 
the engine upright in a closed vehicle, follow these steps 
for emptying the fuel tank before transporting:
1. Empty fuel tank by using a commercially available 

suction device designed for use with gasoline. 

DO NOT pour fuel from engine or 
siphon fuel by mouth.

2. Drain fuel into an approved red GASOLINE container, 

being careful to avoid spilling.

3. Run the engine until remaining fuel is consumed.

NEVER leave the engine 
unattended when it is running and 

NEVER run engine in enclosed areas.
