PREFACE
Thank you for choosing a general gasoline engine by our company.
Based on the latest engine technology at home and abroad, our Co. has individually developed
general gasoline engines with 4-stroke single cylinder, OHV and forced-air cooling. The engine is
characterized by advanced design, compact structure, reliable performance, convenient service low
fuel consumption and easy speed adjustment. They are widely used as ideal power in many fields such
as generating set, tour, open working, public place of entertainment, construction machine, agricultur-
al machinery, etc. the vital part bodies including cylinder cover, crankcase, etc, are all cast formed
with aluminum alloy. Laser-scanning technology, 3D shaping technology and CN program processing
technology used in the mould production upgrade the engine surface and manufacturing accuracy ob-
viously. Applying auto-press reducing system and centrifugal fly hammer regulating system assure
that assemblies equipped with the engine function smoothly and reliably as well as the engine start
easily. Besides, the introduction of the lubricant film-sensing protection system prevents accidental
damage of the engine for poor lubrication.
The manual gives information with respect with respect to operation and maintenance of the
general gasoline engine, and be sure to read it carefully first before operating. All the materials and
diagrams of this manual are in accordance with the newest products at the publishing time. Due to re-
vision and other change, the information descried in this manual may be a little different form the ac-

CAUTION
●A caution is used to alert the user to fact that hazardous operation and maintenance
procedures may result in injury to or death of personnel if not strictly observed.
NOTE
●Anote is used to give helpful information.
Although the engine conforms to the safety requirement of EN1679-1, the user must notice the
possible danger when they install the engine with other terminal products because the different in-
stalling purposes maybe will result in new danger to the engine and its driving product. So, all users
must be responsible to take action for assuring the safety.

SAFETY PERCAUTIONS
△
!WARNING
●Before operating the engine, be sure to read and familiar with the manual carefully,
otherwise injury to personnel or damage to equipment may occur.
Please pay special attention to the following:
1. Running the engine in a well-ventilated place, keep it at least one meter away from building walls
or other equipments, keep away from inflammables such as gasoline, matches and so on to avoid
possibility of fire.
2. Keep the engine out of reach of children and pets to avoid accidents.
3. Operator on the engine has been specially trained.]
4. Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped, and in places refueling or storing gasoline,
no smoking and any flames or sparks.
5. Refuel the fuel tank not too full so as to avoid fuel’s spilling out. If there is spilled fuel around, be
sure to clean it thoroughly before starting.
6. Locate the engine on a level-working platform to avoid fuel’s spilling out.
7. Mack sure the fuel filler cap is tightened securely.
8. The exhaust muffler is very hot during running the engine even after the engine stops. Never touch
it, or you may get burns. Transport or store the engine with it cooling down entirely.

BATTERY CONNECTION (electric-start type)
In the case that the specifications of the battery are 12V and more than 18A.h, connect its posi-
tive lead to the electromagnetic coil while connect its negative lead to engine mount strew, base screw
any place capable of grounding with the engine well.
Make sure the battery leads are connected tightly and no corrosion is found. If any, eliminate it.
△
!WARNING
●The battery may give or off explosive gas, keep sparks, flames and cigarettes away.
Charge or use it I an area with gook ventilation.
●The battery contains sulphonic acid (electrolyte). Con tact with skin or eyes may causr
severe burns. Wear protective clothing and a face shield.
If electrolyte gets in your skin, flush with water; if gets in your eyes, flush with water for
at least 15 minutes and call a physician at once.
●Electrolyte is poisonous. If swallowed, drink large quantities of water or milk, and follow
with milk of magnesia or vegetable oil and call a physician.
●Keep out of reach of children.
CAUTION
●Do not add tap water to the battery instead of distilled water, or the battery life will be
shortened.

●Do not add distilled water over electrolyte upper lev-
el mark, or electrolyte will spill out to corrupt the
engine parts. If so, be sure to wash them away with
water.
●Make sure not to connect the battery leads in reverse
order, or short-circuit or breaker’s cutting may re-
sult.
