Note:
For practical operation, the horsepower loading
should not exceed 85% of rated horsepower. Engine power
will decrease 3-1/2% for each 1,000 feet (300 meters)
above sea level and 1% for each 10 F (5.6 C) above 77
F (25 C). It will operate satisfactorily at an angle up to 15.

Technical Information
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 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.
