fuel Safety
DANGER
GaSOLINE aND GaSOLINE VaPORS aRE hIGhLY
FLammaBLE aND EXPLOSIVE.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
Gasoline and gasoline vapors:
– Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.
– Gasoline can cause a fire or explosion if ignited.
– Gasoline is a liquid fuel but its vapors can ignite.
– Gasoline is a skin irritant and needs to be cleaned up
immediately if spilled on skin or clothes.
– Gasoline has a distinctive odor, this will help detect potential
leaks quickly.
– In any petroleum gas fire, flames should not be extinguished
unless by doing so the fuel supply valve can be turned OFF.
This is because if a fire is extinguished and a supply of fuel is
not turned OFF, then an explosion hazard could be created.
– Gasoline expands or contracts with ambient temperatures.
Never fill the gasoline tank to full capacity, as gasoline needs
room to expand if temperatures rise.
When adding or removing gasoline:
– DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
– Always turn the blower off and let cool for minimum of two
minutes before removing the gasoline cap. Afterwards, loosen
gasoline cap to relieve pressure from the gasoline tank.
– Only fill or drain gasoline outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
– DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the blower at the gas
station. Always use an approved fuel container to transfer the
fuel to the gasoline tank.
– DO NOT overfill the gasoline tank.
– Always keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
– Mix and store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.
When starting the blower:
– DO NOT attempt to start a damaged engine.
– Always make certain that the gasoline cap, air filter, spark
plug, fuel lines and exhaust system are properly secured,
connected and in place.
– Always allow spilled gasoline to evaporate fully before
attempting to start the engine.
– Make certain that the blower is resting firmly on level ground.
When operating the blower:
– DO NOT move or tip the blower during operation.
– DO NOT tip the blower or allow fuel or oil to spill.
When storing the blower:
– Store away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and
other sources of ignition.
– Do not store the blower or gasoline near furnaces, water
heaters, or any other appliances that produce heat or have
automatic ignitions.
WARNiNG
NEVER use a gasoline container, gasoline tank, or any other
fuel item that is broken, cut, torn or damaged.

Once oil has been added, a visual check should show oil about
1-2 threads from running out of the fill hole.
If using the dipstick to check oil level, DO NOT screw in the
dipstick while checking.
NOTiCE
Check oil often during the break-in period. Refer to the
Maintenance section for recommended service intervals.
CAUTiON
The engine is equipped with a low oil shut-off and will stop
when the oil level in the crankcase falls below the threshold
level.
NOTiCE
The first 5 hours of run time is the break-in period for the
engine. During the break in period, it is recommended to use
standard automotive, non-synthetic blended oils. After the
break-in period synthetic oil, can be used but is not required.
Adjusting throttle setting will increase/ decrease engine speed
helping to seat piston rings. Avoid bogging or lugging the
engine down and avoid prolonged running at constant RPM.
After the 5 hour break-in period, change the oil.
NOTiCE
Synthetic oil may be used after the 5 hour initial break-
in period. Using synthetic oil does not decrease the
recommended oil change interval. Full synthetic 5W-30 oil
will aid in starting the engine in cold ambient < 41º F (5º C)
temperatures.
NOTiCE
Weather will affect engine oil and engine performance. Change
the type of engine oil used based on weather conditions to suit
the engine needs.

OPERATiON
Add fuel
CAUTiON
Use regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum octane rating
of 85 and an ethanol content of less than 10% by volume.
DO NOT light or smoke cigarettes.
DO NOT mix oil and gasoline.
DO NOT overfill the tank. Fill tank to approximately ¼ in.
(6.4 mm) below the top of the tank to allow for gasoline
expansion.
Always turn the blower off and let cool for minimum of two
minutes before removing the gasoline cap.
Afterwards, loosen gasoline cap to relieve pressure from the
gasoline tank.
Only fill or drain gasoline outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
Store fuel in a container approved for gasoline.
DO NOT pump gasoline directly into the blower at the gas
station. Always use an approved fuel container to transfer the
fuel to the gasoline tank.
DO NOT overfill the gasoline tank.
Always keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat and other sources of ignition.
WARNiNG
Pouring gasoline too fast through the fuel screen may result in
blow back of gasoline at the operator while filling.
WARNiNG
Always shut off engine before fueling. Never add fuel to a
machine with a running or hot engine. Wait at least 2 minutes
to allow for cool down before refueling. Move at least 50’
(15 m) from refueling site before starting engine. Do no smoke
and stay away from open flames and sparks. Failure to safely
handle fuel could result in serious personal injury and or
property damage.
1. Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum
octane rating of 87 and an ethanol content of less than 10%
by volume. ybc
2. DO NOT mix oil with gasoline.
3. Remove the gasoline cap.
4. Slowly add gasoline to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL. Gasoline
can expand after filling. A minimum of ¼ in. (6.4 mm) of
space left in the tank is required for gasoline expansion,
although more than ¼ in. (6.4 mm) is recommended. Gasoline
can be forced out of the tank as a result of expansion if
overfilled, and can affect the stable running condition of the
blower.
5. The approximate fuel level is shown on the fuel gauge on top
of the fuel tank.
6. Screw on the gasoline cap and wipe away any spilled fuel.
NOTiCE
Our engines work well with 10% or less ethanol blend
gasoline. When using ethanol-gasoline blends there are some
issues worth noting:
– Ethanol-gasoline blends can absorb more water than
gasoline alone.
– These blends can eventually separate, leaving water or a
watery goo in the tank, fuel valve and carburetor.
– The compromised gasoline can be drawn into the
carburetor and cause damage to the engine and/or create
power performance problems.
– There are only a few suppliers of fuel stabilizer that are
formulated to work with ethanol blend fuels.
– Any damages or hazards caused by using improper fuel,
improperly stored fuel, and/or improperly formulated
stabilizers, are not covered by manufacturer’s warranty.
It is advisable to always shut off the fuel supply (where
applicable - not every unit has a fuel shut off), run the
engine to fuel starvation and drain the tank when the
equipment is not in use for more than a 30-day period.
– See Storage instructions for extended non-use.

Operation at high Altitude
The density of air at high altitudes is lower than at sea level.
Engine power is reduced as the air mass and air-fuel ratio
decrease. Engine power and output will be reduced approximately
3½% for every 1000 ft. of elevation above sea level. At high
altitudes increased exhaust emissions can also result due to the
increased enrichment of the air fuel ratio. Other high-altitude
issues can include hard starting, increased fuel consumption and
spark plug fouling.
To alleviate high altitude issues other than the natural power
loss, CPE can provide a high-altitude carburetor main jet. The
alternative main jet and installation instructions can be obtained
by contacting our Technical Support Team. Installation instructions
are also available in the Technical Bulletin area of the CPE website.
The part number and recommended minimum altitude for the
application of the high-altitude carburetor main jet is listed in the
following table.
In order to select the correct high-altitude main jet, it is necessary
to identify the carburetor model. For this purpose, a code is
stamped on the side of the carburetor.
Select the correct high-altitude jet part number corresponding to
the carburetor code found on your particular carburetor.
Carb. Code

(914.4~2438.4m)
WARNiNG
Operation using the alternative main jet at elevations lower
than the recommended minimum altitude can damage the
engine. For operation at lower elevations, the originally
supplied standard main jet must be used. Operating the
engine with the wrong engine configuration at a given altitude
may increase its emissions and decrease fuel efficiency and
performance.

*Except as otherwise stipulated in any of the following enclosed Emission Control System Warranties (when applicable) for the Emission Control System: U.S. Environment Protection Agency
(EPA) and/or California Air Resources Board (CARB).
CHAMPION POWER EQUIPMENT, INC. (CPE),
THE UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (U.S. EPA)
AND THE CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD (CARB) EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
Your Champion Power Equipment (CPE) engine complies with both the U.S. EPA and state of California Air Resources Board
(CARB) emissions regulations.
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS:
The US EPA, California Air Resources Board, and CPE are pleased to explain the Federal and California Emission Control Systems warranty
on your 2021 small off-road engine (SORE) and equipment. In the United States and California, new small off-road engines (SORE) and new
equipment that use small off-road engines (SORE) must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards.
CPE must warrant the emission control system on your small off-road engine (SORE) and equipment for the period of time listed below,
provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your small off-road engine (SORE) and equipment leading to the
failure of the emission control system.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor, fuel-injection system, the ignition system, catalytic converter, fuel
tanks, fuel lines (for liquid fuel and fuel vapors), fuel caps, valves, canisters, filters, clamps, connectors, and other associated components.
Also included may be hoses, belts, and other emission related assemblies. Where a warrantable condition exits, CPE will repair your small
off-road engine (SORE) and equipment at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
This Emissions Control System is warranted for two years. If any emissions-related part on your small off-road engine (SORE) and
equipment is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by CPE.
OWNER WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the small off-road engine (SORE) and equipment owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed
in your Owner’s Manual. CPE recommends that you retain all your receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road engine (SORE)
and equipment, but CPE cannot deny warranty coverage solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.
As the small off-road engine (SORE) and equipment owner, you should be aware that CPE may deny you warranty coverage if your small
off-road engine (SORE) and equipment or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine (SORE) and equipment to an Authorized CPE service outlet or alternate
service outlet as described in (3)(f.) below, CPE dealer or CPE, Santa Fe Springs, Ca. as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs
shall be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
If you have any questions regarding your warranty coverage, you should contact:

and all applicable regulations adopted by the California Air Resources Board; and
2b. Free from defects in materials and workmanship that cause the failure of a warranted part to be identical in all material respects
to the part as described in the engine manufacturer’s application for certification for a period of two years.
3. THE WARRANTY ON EMISSION-RELATED PARTS WILL BE INTERPRETED AS FOLLOWS:
3a. Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner’s Manual shall be warranted for
the ECS Warranty Period. If any such part fails during the ECS Warranty Period, it shall be repaired or replaced by CPE according
to Subsection “d” below. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be warranted for a time not less than
the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.
3b. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled only for regular inspection as specified in the Owner’s Manual shall be
warranted for the ECS Warranty Period. A statement in such written instructions to the effect of “repair or replace as necessary”
shall advise owners of the warranty coverage for emission related parts. Replacement within the warranty period is covered by
the warranty and shall not reduce the ECS Warranty Period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty shall be
warranted for a time not less than the remainder of the ECS Warranty Period.
3c. Any warranted, emissions-related part which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Owner’s Manual shall
be warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part. If the part fails prior to the first
scheduled replacement, the part shall be repaired or replaced by CPE according to Subsection “d” below. Any such emissions-
related part repaired or replaced under the ECS Warranty, shall be warranted for a time not less than the remainder of the ECS
Warranty Period prior to the first scheduled replacement point for such emissions-related part.
3d. Repair or replacement of any warranted, emissions-related part under this ECS Warranty shall be performed at no charge to the
owner at a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.
3e. The owner shall not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a part covered by the ECS Warranty is in
fact defective, provided that such diagnostic work is performed at a CPE Authorized Service Outlet.
3f. CPE shall pay for covered emissions warranty repairs at non-authorized service outlets under the following circumstances:
i. The service is required in a population center with a population over 100,000 according to U.S. Census 2000 without a CPE
Authorized Service Outlet AND
ii. The service is required more than 100 miles from a CPE Authorized Service Outlet. The 100 mile limitation does not apply in the
following states: Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas, Utah and
Wyoming.
3g. CPE shall be liable for damages to other original engine components or approved modifications proximately caused by a failure
under warranty of an emission-related part covered by the ECS Warranty.
3h. Throughout the ECS Warranty Period, CPE must maintain a supply of warranted emission-related parts sufficient to meet the
expected demand for such emission-related parts and must obtain additional parts if that supply is exhausted.
3i. Any CPE Authorized and approved emission-related replacement part that do not increase the exhaust or evaporative emissions of
the engine or emissions control system may be used in the performance of any ECS Warranty maintenance or repair and will be
provided without charge to the owner. Such use shall not reduce CPE’s warranty obligation.
3j. Unapproved add-on or modified parts may not be used to modify or repair a CPE engine. Such use voids this ECS Warranty and
shall be sufficient grounds for disallowing an ECS Warranty claim. CPE shall not be liable hereunder for failures of any warranted
parts of a CPE engine caused by the use of such an unapproved add-on or modified part.
