machine is designed and intended to be used and maintained according to
the manual for finish cutting of established lawns and is not intended for
any other purpose. It is important that you read and understand these
instructions thoroughly before attempting to start or operate this
equipment.
Engine Power Rating Information
The gross power rating labels for individual gas engine models meet or exceed SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers)
code J1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure) and rating performance has been obtained and corrected
in accordance with SAE J1995 (Revision 2002-05). Actual gross engine power may be lower and is affected by, but not
limited to, ambient operating conditions and engine to engine variability. Given both the wide array of products on which
engines are placed, and the variety of environmental issues applicable to operating the equipment, the gas engine will
not develop the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment (actual “on-site” or net horsepower).
This difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, accessories (air cleaner, exhaust, charging,
cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude),
and engine to engine variability.
