A 12 volt battery is normally used. Refer to the

operating instructions of the equipment this engine

powers for specific information.

If the battery charge is not sufficient to turn over the

engine, recharge the battery (see page 13).

OPERATING

Optional spark arrestor mufflers are available from your

Kohler Engine Service Dealer. Check your local laws

and statutes regarding engine spark arrestor muffler

requirements.

Angle of Operation

These engines can be operated at angles up to 35” in

any direction (intermittent operation when crankcase is

filled to “FM mark on dipstick).

NOTE: Do not exceed these angles of operation as

engine damage may result from lack of

lubrication.

Refer to the operating instructions of the equipment

this engine powers. It may have more stringent

guidelines as to angle of operation due to equipment

design.

NOTE: If debris builds up on air intake screen

other intake areas, STOP the engine

immediately and clean. Obstructed air

areas cause engine damage due to

overheating.

WARNING: Hot Parts!

Engine components can get extremely hot from

intake

operation.

To prevent severe burns, do not touch these

areas while the engine is running - or immediately after

it is turned off. Never operate the engine with heat

shields or guards removed.

and

Engine Speed

NOTE:

Do not tamper with the governor setting to

increase the maximum speed. Overspeed is

hazardous and will void the warranty.

WARNING: Rope Starting Pulley Is Not

a Drive Pulley!

Do not use optional backup ropestarting pulley as a

drive pulley.

Using starting pulley as a drive could

loosen the flywheel fastener, resulting in bodily harm.

STOPPING

Disengage all possible load from the engine.

Place the throttle control in the idle position. Allow the

engine to run at idle for 30-60 seconds.

Turn ignition switch OFF. On engines so equipped,

press and hold STOP button until engine comes to a

complete stop.
